[QUOTE="RBrowning, post: 39777, member: 412"] I've been thinking (and yes it hurts [img]images/icons/grin.gif[/img] ) but most accidents are a result of more than one failure. Could this have been caused by a combination of someone trying to chamber the wrong cartridge and having a firing pin stuck in the extended position? In some cases of trying to chamber a wrong cartridge it is too long and won't go in far enough for the bolt to engage the triger to release the firing pin. In other cases the wrong cartridge is too short to locate against the shoulder and the firing pin will push it farther into the chamber with out ignition. This site is turning into to too much like work! [/QUOTE]
