Ar 47 firing pin
I’m curious to know if anybody has had any failure to fire due to low strike. I have used many different types of ammo and still get failure to fire on occasion. I did a little research and see they have an enhanced firing pin just curious to know if this has remedied anybody’s problems

I put a enhanced firing pin in mine and I was able to shoot milspec steel case before it was light primer hits

Some of my 7.62x39 appear to have significant hits and still fail to fire

Before I changed the firing pin I had 1-2 out of 20 fire non mil spec fired no problem. I got mine from bexar arms but they are out of stock now.

The "enhanced " firing pin is actually slightly longer. Not noticeable but measurable. I believe .010 or .015 longer.

I see black rifle company has them in stock for about $12 figure a $12 fix may be well worth the investment the gun was a parts kit from Durkin Tactical so it’s not a very quality piece
