glassblower Posted January 7, 2017 Share Posted January 7, 2017 As I was examining my new and as yet to be live fired S&W 929 I noticed that the "firing pin" or "nose bushing" is missing. Or it at least looks very different than my 686. It has been dry fired maybe 100 times with snap caps but has not been live fired. Can someone tell please tell me if this is how it is supposed to look and am I using the correct name for the apparently missing piece? Thanks, Al Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

glassblower Posted January 7, 2017 Author Share Posted January 7, 2017 Never thought a hollow firing pin would be advantageous. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
