Contender Barrel only would open a third of the way
« on: June 29, 2004, 04:36:13 PM »
Went to the range last Wed. and I put a 12  inch 221 Fireball barrel on a frame. Went to open the barrel and it would only open 1/3 of the way. Long story short the Firing Pin Bushing screw came loose and and when I would open the barrel the firing pin springs would push the bushing out and the locking lugs would hit it and keep the barrel from opening.
