Thomea,
Sir I just got off the "tail" of my newer firing pins I noticed no adverse effects whatsoever. Is this the right way? I doubt it lol. Come to think of it ill have to see if I did the bolt lift kit to to the hacked one.....either way i cut it off....
when i do the the bolt lift mod. I measurethe lenth of the cocking sleve then the lenth of the cocking
sleve with the bolt mod. on it
then cut the bas or the cocking sleve that diff., or add a shim or a washer that thick under the bas.
that way you do not incress yhe firing pin spring tenson
very sorry for my spelling,its been a very long day

I have not tried that, but apparently it works for you with no ill effects. (Someone smarter than I please feel free to chime in.) The "tail" isn't really supporting any load. You have reduced the mass of your firing pin, so your lock time should also improve by about a billionth of a second or so (just guessing...not willing to do the mathOriginally Posted by chesty for president

I did turn down the tail end of my axis firing pin so that I could get a thrust bearing around it. It still works just fine.
