Well,I went ahead and fired that baby.Not only did it fire properly,it fired WELL.I made a nice little 2" 10-shot hole from about 30 feet away,firing one-handed.
It's funny-the firing pin made a normal impression in the primers of the Remington ammo I used-my other guns do the same thing to a snap cap that they do to a live primer,this one didn't.I guess it's because of the super-stiff firing-pin spring.
I just like to be sure I've covered all the bases on a gun that's 70-odd years old before I start blasting-I don't wanna be one of those one-eyed,9-fingered dudes I see ever so often at the range!
