Floating firing pin

Post by Taprack »

I removed the safety on my ranch hand because I hate it and I saw that a bunch of guys were already doing it. The firing pin just floats now, did I miss a step somewhere or does it just float when you remove the safety? I know I can keep it safe at half cock or empty chamber, just curious. Thanks.

It floats on any model 92. If its loaded, the hammer needs to be at half cocked.

Thanks very much. I wasn't sure if the safety added some type of resistance, I don't recall seeing/hearing the firing pin moving before it took it out. Thanks again.
