Found these a while back.
First time I found a pin fire cartridge that still had
tha pin in it.
If ya want to know a little about pin fire guns, read
on.
Here is a whole pin fire cartridge. You can see that
the pin is inserted into the casing.
So, how does it work.
Simple.
You can see tha pin being inserted.
Here is inside tha casing before tha percussion cap
is in place.
Here is inside tha casing after tha percussion cap is
in place.
A picture?s worth a thousand words, idin it?
The gun simply hits down on tha pin and tha percussion
cap ignites tha powder.
Here?s an example of a pin fire revolver.
Thanks fer lOOkin,
Tabdog
