Default Re: Old Gun Fixes

It should be obvious, but I wish rhmc24 had mentioned it. When dealing with rimfire chamber "dings", don't forget to fix the cause of the ding. Many old single shot rifles have homemade firing pins that are too long, so even if the ding is fixed it will recur the first time the gun is dry snapped. Fix the ding? Sure, but don't forget to fix the reason for the ding.
