1. No part "hits" the firing pin, held under tension by the sear bar when cocked, the firing pin will travel forward and hit the primer when released. It is the trigger that by means of a lever, that slides the sear bar off the firing pin allowing it to move forward
2. The toggle unit has a right and left side knob, not lifesaver, that give you a gripping area to **** the gun, staying up a little if opened slowly is the norm.....but having not seen or handled your gun, perhaps you should seek out someone in your area more familiar with the gun and help you through it
