    Automag II - Firing problem

    I purchased an AutoMag II, 22 WMR and just tried to fire it for the first time.
    Low and behold, it wouldn't fire - my immediate suspicion is that the firing pin is broke, as there was no indentation on the rim of the round - even after several attempts.
    So, needless to say, I'm looking for a gunsmith in the Orange County area who is familiar with this firearm...
    Need to replace the firing pin (I presume), but also to test fire and fix any jamming problems with this gun.
    Is there anyone out there with a recommendation on where to go, who to see to tune/refurbish this gun, who will not charge me an arm and a leg?
    Thanks to all in advance....

    The hammer spring guide link typically bends in these causing reduced striking energy to the firing pin.

    did two of those last year, might want to have that item/area looked at.

      Bring it into ammobros, I can take a look at it there in cerritos.
      We're not done yet, we're not going quietly. We'll win in the end.

        Thanks Sal,
        I'll do that - are you only there on certain days? Maybe I'll call the store first, but I will be in touch shortly...
