My cylinder axis pin is loose?!
« on: January 10, 2011, 07:59:22 AM »
I haven't shot my M83 in a while so this weekend I decided she needed some trigger time. Upon handling the gun I noticed that I am able to wiggle the cylinder axis pin sideways about 1 - 1.5mm even though the screw is tightly fastened. I got really nervous and decided not to shoot her until I had consulted the experts  ;)

Am I right in assuming the cylinder axis pin is not supposed to be able to move when the screw is tightened??

Wiking, the cylinder axis pin is suppose to be free floating so what you described is just the way it should be.
