oddjob Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 (edited) When the hammer is at full cock I can push the firing pin in. When at half cock the block works and I can't push it in. Is this normal? I have an Extreme long firing pin and the standard factory block. thanks Edited June 6, 2016 by oddjob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gdub Posted June 6, 2016 Share Posted June 6, 2016 Put the factory firing pin back in and see if the FPB works right. If that is the case you probably should by an extended FPB and fit it to the extended firing pin. There are tons of threads on how to do this.

oddjob Posted June 7, 2016 Author Share Posted June 7, 2016 Put the stock firing pin in and it works just like the extended one. Must be factory ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torogi Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 If you replace your hammer to either the Titan/Delta, you have to use the Extreme Firing pin safety. Changing the hammer lowers the sear hence needing a longer firing pin safety. Sent from my SM-G935V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MemphisMechanic Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) Put the stock firing pin in and it works just like the extended one. Must be factory ok. A non-functioning firing pin block will get you DQ'd at a match where they actually conduct an equipment check. It has to work in order to be Production legal.

oddjob Posted July 16, 2016 Author Share Posted July 16, 2016 (edited) Got the extended block. The firing pin is now working (or not working) as it should at full cock. Thanks for the information!! It passed the pencil test with flying colors. Edited July 16, 2016 by oddjob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It passed the pencil test with flying colors. That's good to hear. I've found the extended FPB interferes slightly with the grauffel fp. Check the back of the fp notch after you've shot it a bit and see if there's any peening or material gone. For some reason the fpb doesn't quite move out of the way fast enough.

I thought it bumps you to Open div. not a DQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JusticeOfToren Posted July 22, 2016 Share Posted July 22, 2016 I guess in Production Nationals you get DQ for that or maybe you get a free entry to Open Nationals Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
