Hey gang! I've got a Zastava M70A 9mm Tokarev pistol that I bought NIB a few months ago. It's got an issue though, with the safety, and I'm not sure what to do about it.
With a magazine out of the gun, and the hammer cocked back, with the safety on, the trigger can be pulled and the hammer will go forward most of the time. I absolutely making sure the safety is pressed down all the way, but the hammer will still trip when the trigger is pulled. Now the gun does have a firing pin block on safe, and it seems to work. It stops the hammer from hitting the firing pin... but the hammer isn't supposed to fall with the safety on, is it?
Not sure what to do about the gun. I've only shot it one time but it was 100% reliable. I like the gun, but this safety issue has me greatly concerned and I'm just wondering if anyone out there can help me with this.
Thanks so much!
