Default firing pin stop

hi unspellable, as I think about it some more, I am certain you are correct... I guess I wandered off track a bit thinking about how ofter tapered points fail from shock factor right at the unsupported tip... Lugers and Nambus probably being by far the worst.. With new tough series steels, this should be a thing of the past with any new manufacture.. (Of which there is none!) I had once got a Nambu at an veterans estate auction about 25 years ago and prior to the auction, it was so nice, the safety had never been rotated!! (no tracks) they evidently never rotated them even when assembled.. because it was pristeen.. After several people looked at it, it had two deep grooves, one on each side of the safely.. But anyway, I don't believe it had ever been fired.. I had the pistol for many years and when I went to sell it, the firing pin was broken. Sored me a bit on nambus... But again, i got better! Best to all, til...lat'r...GT
