[QUOTE="Willoughby, post: 597323, member: 36673"] the problem is most likely with the firing pin- to sear contact if its a 3 position saftey like on mod 70's your tryng to compress firing pin spring with the saftey lever- its like tryng to pull it back further into the cocked position with the short little saftey lever unless you can add couple thousands to firing pin where it contacts sear you need a new firing pin if you do add some metal here the timing is critcal to much & the saftey will engage - but when its released it will act as a trigger releasing firing pin dont ask how I know easy enough to replace pin your self other than that its time to see a smith [/QUOTE]
