Saved my S&W637
Was ready to dump my J-frame due to misfires with most ammo brands but decided to swap springs and try this firing pin first. Worked flawlessly afterwards with three different brands of ammo.

Experienced light primer strikes on my S&W 629. This product totally eliminated the problem. Install was pretty easy.

Flawless Ignition with 202 Spring Kit...
I recently upgraded a stock 629-6 using a Brownells 202 Spring Kit(standard rate Power Rib Main Spring with 13, 14, and 15 lbs Trigger Rebound Springs). I replaced the stock Main Spring & Trigger Rebound Spring with the kit's standard rate Power Rib Main Spring and the 15lbs Trigger Rebound Spring. This resulted in greatly improved reasonably light & smooth SA/DA pulls but as is often the case with lighter than stock aftermarket spring upgrades, I could not get 100% reliable ignition with a variety of primer makes & types. As component availability is now so hit & miss, for me it is absolutely crucial that this handgun be able to shoot loads using whatever type of primers are available with 100% reliability. Replacing the stock firing pin with the C&S Extra Long S&W Firing Pin from Brownells instantly solved the issue. After swapping out the stock firing pin I achieved 100% reliable ignition with loads using the several makes & types of primers I have stocked up on as they became available, including the Large Pistol Magnum primer that is so notoriously hard to ignite. As others have pointed out the pin itself is not longer but the travel cut is wider which allows the pin to travel forward a shade more. That little bit more inertia combined with the face of the pin being more rounded & wider than a stock S&W pin yielded flawless ignition across the board. Fit was perfect & finish excellent resulting in easy drop-in installation. I could not be happier with this firing pin and highly recommend that if you are going to install an aftermarket spring kit in a S&W revolver, you swap out the stock firing pin for this one at the same time. It will save you a ton of frustration. Once more a great product from Brownells. Thanks!
