Are ou still trying to find a bolt?

You will be more comfortable with disassemble and reassembly after doing it a few times.
I revaluated your firearm malfunction, I was wrong about bending inward it needs to be bent outward which will slightly lengthen distance. I think the hammer is being released too early and by bending the lower connector outward will also cause the hammer to be released latter. Rather than bending the connector outward you could also file the inside of the hook a little, test, remove a little more metal till corrected. Removing a little metal would possibly be better than bending. Sorry for the confusion

Haris357,
The hook is not being bumped forward by the action bar, try bending downward, so that total lenght is reduced slighly.

Bore,
Numrich or Keystone have the front sights instock. You will also need the set screw
-
Springman,
Think Keystone has the best pricing for the action bar.

All my firearms are shooting grade and own a very limited number of full auto firearms. I purchased a Reising seven years ago and first time out was disappointed with the performance. After extensive research it was alarming how divided everyone was on the Reising performance. Recently I took the time to resolve the issues and now the firearms is functioning flawlessly. If a firearm doesn’t function to your satisfaction fix it, live with it or sell it. For the few that don’t have the resources to fine-tune a Reising it’s sad that your not experiencing the firearms full potential. This website provides a lot of very useful information. Sorry for being off topic just needed to vent

Chris,
Just curious, will your wolf hammer spring slid into your hammer without forcing?
-
Chris,
The spring comparison was done while the springs were in a relaxed state. Three new Wolf springs were compared to two new Numerich springs
Appreciate your pervious input
Thanks

Range Report
With Numrich hammer spring, which is, smaller in diameter and shorter in length than the Wolf hammer spring.
Ran 3 magazines loaded with 15 rounds each. Per magazine would fire three in semi mode and remaining in short round bursts. Gun performed flawlessly.
The previous deep primer strikes have been slightly reduced
Input would be appreciated
Thanks
-
Springman,
Didn’t do a before and after, very little material was removed from sticker end of firing pin.
Yes, running very well with no feeding issues.
Tomorrow will test with the smaller diameter hammer spring

Springman,
Revision
Keep in mind that the bolt I sent to you yesterday has not been modified
The sent bolt is compiled as follows:
Bolt
Extractor with screw – not fitted or tightened
Used firing pin spring
Used firing pin – previously bent and realigned by a machinist
Firing pin retainer
Thanks

Springman,
No the deep primer strikes are not puncturing the primer but deep enough that am concerned
I previously filled down the firing pin (Hammer end)
Presently
When hammer end of firing pin is flush with bolt the striking end of the firing pin is just below the face of the bolt
Ran 80 rounds with no failures other than deep primer strikes
While cleaning the gun I compared the active hammer spring ( Note - This spring has to be forced into the hole of the hammer) with hammer springs that I had purchased from Wolf and Numrich:
Findings
Wolf hammer springs are larger in diameter and longer in length
Numrich hammer springs are smaller in diameter and shorter in length
My thoughts are by reducing the amount of hammer force will reduce the deep primer strikes and also be less fatigue on the bolt, which possibly contributes to the bolts failure
All
Input would be appreciated
Springman

Wolf hammer spring
Deep hammer strikes
Due to Deep primer strikes I was going to change out the hammer spring and noticed the following:
Wolf Hammer Spring
· Longer in length than Numrich purchased spring
· Due to larger spring diameter have to force into hammer hole
Numrich Hammer Spring
· Shorter in length than Wolf purchased spring
· Fits into hammer hole without forcing
Please provide your thoughts
Thanks

Springman,
Mailed bolt today, should have it Monday
Chris,
Keep me in mind concerning NOS firing pin
