blaser308 Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 After removing the firing pin assembly from my model s barnard bolt by hand so i can get measurement to Lands when closing bolt however after reassembling the bolt seems to feel much stiffer upon extraction also the primer strike pressure seems to have greatly increased would appreciate any info with assembly with bolt, thanks.

provarmint Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 The firing pin spring controls strike and cocking force, not sure how it's so different after stripping, just done mine and re assembled, no different. I'd recheck everything is assembled correctly, although it is a simple strip. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grum87 Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Do the barnards not have an adjustable firing pin strike depth? You havent changed this while stripping and reassembling have you? Im not 100% familliar with dissassembly/rebuild of them, but I have shot a club mates and recall him having similar trouble one day, that he put down to firing pin depth/spring tension.

gunnery Posted January 30, 2016 Report Share Posted January 30, 2016 Check to see if there is a little ball bearing in the cone end of the bolt if not there should be Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mik Mak Posted January 31, 2016 Report Share Posted January 31, 2016 I do these a lot, I would also say check you have not lost the ball bearing in the end of the firing pin cap Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
