SendaPill Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Gentlemen, Can anyone tell me why my firing pin is making these dimples when I close the bolt over a full 10 round clip? :o Ammo is german Weichkern. This is a LAR-8 Varmint and my first on an AR platform - is this normal? I have to believe the spring in the carrier isn't strong enough to overcome the momentum of slamming home. Any thoughts suggestions? Thank you for your time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

98Z5V Posted August 15, 2011 Report Share Posted August 15, 2011 Free float firing pin in the RRA, right? That's what does that. You can search for any companies that might make a titanium firing pin for the RRA guns - the lighter pin wouldn't have such an effect on the primers, and it wouldn't hurt functioning in any other way.

2Rsquared Posted November 12, 2011 Report Share Posted November 12, 2011 What brand of primer are you using? I believe some are softer (thinner cups) than others. I think CCI #34's are what the military uses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
