I do have them in my SKS’s Even without the spring installed, they offer a reduced chance of a slam fire. Instead of a conical shaped firing pin head pushing up into a conical shaped hole, the pin is just round at the end and never contacts the conical hole in the bolt.
The one real problem with them is that if you have a pierced primer the flame entering the bolt through the hole will take the temper out of the spring and render it useless. Even with the spring in this condition the pin still functions properly. Mr. Murray has also discovered what seems to be the cause of a lot of these pierced primer incidents. On a lot of SKS Rifle Stocks bolts, there seems to be a burr or raised edge around the firing pin hole on the face of the bolt. By removing this burr it stopped my SKS’s from having any more pierced primers.
