How many shots before a handy starts to miss-fire?
« on: September 09, 2008, 04:21:09 PM »
I've heard that in time[many rounds] a handy starts to miss-fire due to transfer bar wear and weak hammer springs.Is anyone seeing this and if so how many shots exactly does it take to get to this point?I've owned one new sportster and two used partners and haven't seen it yet.
