- Hi Folks, Lance here from www.TriggerShims.com
In this video, we install a new Volquartsen A2 SureStrike Firing Pin in our 10/22 Rifle.
The Replacement Firing Pin in a nice upgrade, and is available at www.triggershims.com/
We also have a companion video that shows how to install the replacement A2 Extractor and Spring. - กีฬา
Volquartsen SureStrike Firing Pin is designed to minimize and/or eliminate light hits on the Ruger 10/22 (LR model only). The SureStrike Firing Pin is precision EDM machined from A2 tool steel. The impact section of the firing pin is then surface ground to create the optimal “SureStrike” each and every time!
This new firing pin is also .004" wider than the factory firing pin to help eliminate side to side movement in the factory bolt.
I am fairly new to the 10/22 world having just put together a Tony Kidd Supergrade 22 and out of ALL the videos that I saw out here in you tube land your videos sir are by far the best I've watched 1 you don't talk fast 2 your hands aren't all over the place (most annoying) 3 it doesn't seem like your doing this from a broom closet and 4 mostly important is that you seem to know what your talking about .
How to made of all video
bought the upgraded firing pin and extractor last week, and found this great video to help out if I needed it. Didn't, but good know I did it right...
Nicely done Lance. This video helped me greatly when installing my Volquartsen firing pin. Next is the extractor...
Thanks so much for showing this. I am learning a lot for watching you do this. Your efforts are appreciated. Peace, Reese
Thanks for the prompt response. Got a new (to me) 10/22 project to play with. will probably be checking your site later as funds become more available.
Nice solid video, thanks for the firing pin retaining pin size in an earlier post that type of information is really helpful. Thanks,
Thanks for a really clear set of instrucrions
Thank You for Watching!
Hardened to a Rc 56-58 to prevent any excessive wear and deformation that can be found on the factory firing pin. The hardening process on the A2 material allows for a much deeper hardening when compared to conventional case hardening.
Excellent detail. Nice job.
Very easy to follow, thanks!!
Thanks very much - very educational and helped me a lot.
Thanks. that's what I needed to know.
wow easy and simple ty for the video
Nice Job, very clear
Either one if you are using brass.
With a brass punch you won't damage the pin, it is a 5/32 pin and you should use a 5/32 punch.
I didn't have one so I used a 1/8" brass punch (a hair smaller)
That works fine too.
Thanks and Good Shooting,
Lance
My question is why what is the advantage of this over the factory firing pin
Great vid, thank you
Very welcome!
Hi , on the firing pin rebound spring witch end of the spring goes against the firing pin and witch end goes against the bolt . The funny looking end goes against the pin and the regular end against the bolt , just asking , could you answer this for me , thanks
sorry I'm a noob, but what does this improve? like more reliable strikes on the rim?
Yes, exactly
I can't read the print on your website. there is not enough contrast between the print and the background. You need to fire the person who signed off on it.
Ha Ha, That is me, I am my own webmaster, and I occasionally do dishes too!
You are using the OLD internet explorer, I think it is retired in 2021

Interesting instructional video! Q: Does anyone like Volquartsen, or anyone else offer a bolt hold-open piece for a 10/22; say, something which could be added to the trigger group assy.? Reason I ask is that with a rimfire, if you don't have a last-round hold-open, like on an AR, you will often shoot your mag dry, not realize it, and then dry-fire w/no brass, on an empty chamber; very bad mojo for a rimfire gun. I would think that this would have to happen in conjunction with a magazine modification, possibly a follower mod, so that this can all work together; just a thought...or am I trying to reinvent the wheel? If so, and somebody out there knows that I speak ancient history, please respond and let me(and everyone else) know. Thanks!
+rhunter762i Thank You! I am glad you liked my video. There are Last Shot - Bolt Stop modifications available, but they are not necessary as the design of the Ruger 10/22 does not allow the firing pin to damage the chamber. You can dry-fire a 10/22 to your hearts content, secure in the knowledge that the Old Man, Bill Ruger, designed it that way. Good Shooting, Lance
That pin you knock through the hole in the firing pin is there to make sure it can't go far enough forward to hit the chamber. Same thing on the mark pistols that have to be dry fired to assemble and reassemble.
