Archived [ARCHIVED THREAD] - Normal for M1 to leave slight impression or indentation on cartridge primer?
Posted: 4/10/2017 11:45:00 PM EDT
When ejecting a non fired live rough from the action I observed very noticeable dimples
on the primer caps. Is this normal and not a concern? It's been a while since I've been in
the Garand game so I thought it wise to seek the knowledge of my peers. Thank guys!

Normal. Floating firing pin.

M1 Garand, M1A, AR15, all of them do it.  Not an issue.
