Delton Slam Fire?

[Joshk]

When I chamber a bullet with the bolt fully pulled back with the side slap, and I do not pull the trigger or discharge the weapon the pin seems to hit the primer slightly, and leave a small indent that is not deep enough to fire, but it scares me.

Can or will this cause an accidental slam fire?
What can I do to fix this problem?

Any input would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Joshk

Josh,

Completely normal with the AR due to the free floating firing pin. Read around a little.
