Has any one had any problems with the inserts used in the NEF 32 ? A friend of mine bought a set and every time he fires 1 shot it locks up and they cylinder won't spin, he has to use a pair of pliers to pull the pin out and remove the cylinder, the Gentlemen he bought them from hasn't been giving him the best customer service so I thought I'd ask the folks here. he is using the CCI primers as recommended.
Any ideas or advice would be appreciated
Thanks, Joe

Re: .209 inserts for a NEF .32
This was posted a thread about good starting pistolsI have a .32 NEF with the inserts for the primers. I'm having such a problem with the inserts, that I'm considering selling the blank gun for a gun that is strictly .209 primers as most of the championships and such just require the primers. I'd hate to get rid of the NEF only to find out that I need it for the .32s.

I can't really help as I had the same problem and ended up just selling the gun. And, yes, the guy that I bought the inserts from, tried to be helpful, but in the end, really wasn't.
Re: .209 inserts for a NEF .32
I had the same problem with a GunX that was specific for Winchester 209 primers. CCI primers work ok. So I think I would try Federal 209 before I sold the gun. It may be primer brand specific. One problem it did have is that the inserts I bought were too tight for the GunX cylinder and I had to take them down a little with emory paper spinning the insert in a chuck I rigged for an electric drill. That issue is probably not related to failure to cycle you are experiencing.

I have used a 209 primer pistol for quite a few years. Once I had a box that gave me the same problem. That was the only time, so I suggest trying some different primers
