Waypoint 2020 light primer strikes

Did anyone try fighting the set screws without taking the firing pin out?

It'd be a good thing to check and tighten the screws before it becomes an issue. One needs to remove the firing pin from the bolt to be able to tighten it down to fix the issue once it's started. I believe the recoil from the firing just makes it start working its way free. Maybe if the spring was coiled the other direction it'd work it's way tighter if it were to come loose?

Hello Chat,

I just spoke with a rep at Springfield. They have never heard of this issue. I shared this post with them in hope they solve it in the future.

I want to say, great job for solving this issue on you own and sharing it. Greatly appreciated.

In my defense I had taken it to a gunsmith but it was going to take 6-8 weeks before they could have a look at it. So I decided I'd see what I could find first. My first attempt failed and it was only after trying multiple things that I got it to work again.
