Model 81 "woodmaster" Firing pin??
Posted: Sun Feb 06, 2011 1:08 pm
I tried firing my recently purchsed 81 and the fist 2 of 3 rounds didn't fire. I put in three and released the bolt and CLICK!! worked the bolt again..CLICK.. now with only 1 round in BANG!
Now it was very cold( I'm In Canada,} and my fingers were getting numb.
When I got home I cocked the rifle and pulled the bolt back a little and the firing pin was sticking out. Is this normal?? It didn't go off in battery when I first tied it,just Click.
Any clues to whats happening here ??
It was cleaned , oiled(breakfree) and appears to function OK.
Any help appreciated, Jim
