Well I'm working on a F.I.E. 38D and it will not strike the bottom firing pin when I pull the trigger. I've replaced the hammer. Cam and striker with new spring. Firing pin is in good shape but I just can't get the hammer to hit it. It's like it slips during the pull and slides back to the top again. Any ideas would be appreciated.
FIE D38 Derringer
Does anyone have any experience with a FIE D38 Derringer? I had a Davis 22 Mag a while ago, sadly I sold it and then I find out one can convert calibers. Oh well...life and learn.
I hope to rebuild one here soon. It is a beefy little guy. No safety, like the Davis (didn't really notice that before). I was watching a video on disassembly/assembly and video mentioned that one has to be be careful when shutting it because the firing pins might stick out enough to fire a round. I vaguely recall, a recall of some sort for Davis Derringers, not sure if that was the issue or not.
