Default Range report!! Range report!!!

Well, just got back from the range and my test fire with the sear bar removed, toggle slammed shut, produced NO slamfires!!! out of 10 attempts, and I think with 99% certainty, that it will not go off with a separated firing pin, as long as the front part isn't lodged in the breechblock for some un-known reason?? I also tried it a few times with a cartridge in the chamber and a direct impingement of the pin on primer in a slam fire condition, same results.. no bang.. BUT, it did mark the primer in every instance, just as I surmised with AR type firearms... So, there you have it boys! Can't go off unless the firing pin drops from a sear release........Best to all, til...lat'r....GT
