another mountain gun breaking firing pins. Belonged to ***. Or maybe it was when he went by *****. Or ******.

Anyway, it made several trips back and I cannot remember if it ever quit breaking pins.

In his case, he & S&W said everything lined up. Always wondered if perhaps the cylinder had enough free rotational slop to shear off the pin nose at the moment of firing.
