Toz 35m firing pin spring

Post by kboj »

Hi guys.

My Toz 35 m occassionally does not always go bang, but click. It does not help to just set the trigger a second time. I need to cock it to make it go bang again. There is only a very light strike on the case. The firing pin seems to be OK(I hope, because it will probably be hard to find)

I suspect the firing pin spring to be worn out. Can anybody tell me the free lenght?

thanks in advance,

Keld

I'm sure someone will chime in with the details, but I seem to recall that there is a Smith & Wesson revolver spring that is a drop in replacement.

A quick search came up with: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=49003&p=233412,

and: viewtopic.php?f=4&t=50434&p=240937

Thanks for your quick advices. Will try to get a S&W spring. Btw, seems that the advice with cocking the right way also had a positive effect.

Wolf also do a range of SW rebound springs with different windings, it would be useful to know which is the right one.

Factory spring works fine.
Spring is 16 lb.
A lot of the Wolf springs are reduced weight springs for lightning a revolver trigger pull, 11 to 14 lb.

I hate to mention this, BUT its probably not the spring. Scrub the chamber with a brush. When the gun closes on a dirty chamber, sometimes it doesn't seat the round well, the chamber grime holds the round aft against the falling block. When the firing pin hits it, it slides forward in the chamber absorbing the impact energy. You get a very light primer strike mark and recocking the gun does nothing .........

The firing pin spring is the only part I ever replaced in my extensively used TOZ. When I cleaned the gun, I would often check the firing spring in the gun against a new one. Often times I would stretch the one in the gun a little. In addition, I never left the firing pin cocked when the gun was not being used.

These are the instructions on Pilkguns about how to store and dry fire the Toz 35: http://www.pilkguns.com/tenp/sptoz35.htm

I made this video to show French shooters that don't speak English how to do it: https://youtu.be/ppA33JuNeGQ

You can also use the spring from any model of Pardini freepistol, or if you dismember a Ruger 22 pistol you get more than 2 out of 1.
Spektr`s replie above is a good one.
