Here are a few pictures of what happens when a primer is pierced. Fulton converted to a 454. Unfortunately what was a beautiful proffesional job in all other aspects, turned into a mess because the firing pin was too long. I purchased this gun which had never been test fired evedently. I took it to a friend whom is a Gunsmith. He took it to the test tunnel down stairs and told me to wait, as the policy was others can not be down there when he did test firing. I heard the report and a few minutes later he came up and said the gun blew up. If not for him wearing glasses it would have been serious as the glasses where horribly pitted. Needless to say one call to the company I recieved it from, and my money was refunded.
