FAL METRIC HAMMER
Here are some key points about the FAL metric hammer:
-
Function: The hammer is a critical component of the FAL's internal firing mechanism. It works in conjunction with other components, such as the trigger and sear, to facilitate the firing sequence.
-
Location: The hammer is located in the lower receiver of the FAL, and it interacts with the bolt carrier group to initiate the firing process when the trigger is pulled.
-
Material: Hammers are typically made of durable materials, often steel, to withstand the forces and impacts associated with firearm operation.
-
Compatibility: The term "metric" indicates that the hammer is designed for use in metric-pattern FAL rifles. It's essential to ensure compatibility with the specific FAL variant you own, as there are metric and inch patterns with some differences in parts.
-
Maintenance: While the hammer itself may not require frequent maintenance, ensuring that it is free of debris and properly functioning during routine firearm cleaning and inspection is advisable.
If you are considering replacing or upgrading the hammer in your metric FAL rifle, it's recommended to purchase parts from reputable sources and, if needed, consult the firearm's manual or reach out to FAL experts for guidance. If you are not familiar with the disassembly and reassembly process of firearms, it's advisable to seek assistance from a qualified gunsmith or firearm expert to ensure proper installation and adherence to safety guidelines. Always follow local regulations and guidelines when acquiring and maintaining firearms and their components.
