My AR and my friend's AR both have bolts that's firing pins punch the primer sightly when they feed the cartridge into the chamber. We know because every time we eject a life round from the chamber there is a slight dent in the primer. It doesn't go off. We did it on some spent cartridges with live soft primers about 20 times to see.
Should this happen at all? Is it safe? (I wouldn't think so in spite of the fact that it never goes off as a result...still his is doing it to...is this natural for the AR design?)
