Newbie, Thrown Into The Luger World By Accident

I have a brother who once bought an old pickup from Dad. There was a really noisy rattle in the dash and nobody could find it. Finally, the A/C went belly up and my brother was forced to tear it apart the replace the entire unit. Deep inside the dash was an old .30-.30 round that had slipped down the air ducts. That thing was there for over ten years that I know of. It still fired.

The plunger depresses easily and is in contact with your finger as you pull it away. Of course, that mechanism operates much faster than I do. I suppose it is possible that spring needs to be replaced as well. It can't do any harm to take it apart and clean it. I may even have a replacement for it in the parts I ordered for it.
