Soo.. issue: Fires on action release

Freischütz · 12-27-2016, 03:13 PM

I had this problem and found powder fouling on and in the breachblock caused it. I deliberately let the pistol get filthy to see how much it could stand. When it fired on closing I took it apart. It required about 400 rounds to reach this point. The firing pin and breachblock inside were coated in fouling and partially burned powder. The entire breachblock was sticky. Cleaning solved the problem.
