Conical FP


Goody, SASS #26190

Recommended Posts

First comment from a mechanical standpoint, would be "Why."  The conical firing pin requires a different hole thru the frame.  The smaller firing pins as seen in most replicas require a smaller hole, and in the case of those with hardened bushings, enlarging would be a major PITA.  The smaller diameter firing pin also imparts more concentrated impact to the primer anvil.

 

Was never tempted to do it.  No mechanical advantage.
