Title: Broken Firing Pin
Post by: TheCitizen82 on October 22, 2007, 11:03:41 AM

            I bought a RAMI a few weeks ago, put about 200 rounds through it and was very pleased with the gun until I took it to the range a few days ago, pulled the trigger, and nothing happened. Apparently the firing pin broke at some point between then and my last trip to the range. Has this happened to anyone else with the RAMI? It's a bit disconcerting considering I had planned on making this my carry gun.

Yours is actually the first firing pin I've heard of breaking on the RAMI.  I have the .40 variant and it is my carry gun.

...I don't have to hear your trouble before. I only have 75B. But I think
            that because of some cause of the metal logy products. May me
            some lots of products have only one in the thousand. It can be.
            I believe that.  Every thing can be fault. Even for mankind...

First that WE have heard of it here.
           
            I suggest calling CZ-USA and asking for a new firing pin.
            They might do it for you.

UPDATE: I sent the gun to CZ and they took care of it no problem. The turn around on my order was fast as well; under 3 weeks. I'll be using snap caps from now on, and will be carrying my P-01 until I get comfortable with depending on the RAMI. Appendix carry between the two is like night and day though, so hopefully my faith will be restored sooner rather than later. Thanks for the feedback all.

I don't believe dry firing a CZ is a good idea. Use those snap caps!

I'm sure that CZ is still including the fake plastic cartridges intended for dry firing.
Some people are not understanding this and the resulting broken firing pins or roll pins
are showing up.
