I’ve got a Star Model B Super (1911 variant?), and I think the firing pin broke on my last range outing. Went through one mag no issue, and 2 rounds into the next mag then nothing. I manually cycled the gun for the remaining rounds. Once cycled/ejected there was no evidence of a primer strike at all on the other rounds. This happened while using 147 Grn blazer brass cased ammo, was using 124 Grn blazer brass beforehand. Examined/field stripped when i got home and no visible evidence of a failure. Though second hand, I’ve never had an issue with this firearm as long as I’ve owned it. Is a full disassembly needed and a deep clean next step or do i genuinely have a broken firing pin? If the latter I do have a replacement firing pin but is this something i should tackle myself or leave to a qualified gunsmith?

Thanks,

Jordan

Would you rather have your normal farts you’ve always had, or be able to pick ONE smell that ALL your farts will smell like for the rest of your life? All poop and farts forver.

What do yall think about 22 WMR for concealed carry? In a 2-3 inch barrel. Looking at getting a Ruger LCRx snubby maybe even the 3.5 inch model. I always see 22 WMR on the shelves. Id just feel more comfortable carrying something im actually able to shoot once a month. I shoot my 9mm maybe once every two months now due to ammo shortages. I see WMR decently often still in stores.

Hey fam,

What are your thoughts on tracers to help with round counting when shooting? I have a gangsta cetme with Franklin binary trigger I typically carry as a truck gun. Since it has no bolt hold open, I was thinking of using 2-3 tracers at the end of the magazine so I know a mag swap is coming up. Good idea or does it give my shooting position away?

Much luv,

The Duke of Crude
