2Sharp - there you go mate :-)
Given that it is a dummy modelgun, its pin would not strike any cartridge.
I guess that just to avoid problems, firing pin was made off-center anyway.
Photos below:
- frame seen from the top, after removing slide.
- slide from bottom, after removing it. Both barrel and slide are still together.
- "chamber", or rather lack of it.
- end of barrel is blocked, too.
- inside the slide, you can see that firing pin is almost at the edge of bolt face, not in middle. It is pretty close to "chamber loaded" indicator pin.
- back of slide, this is where hammer falls.
- inside slide again, I am pushing firing pin now so you can see where it sticks out.
Other comments:
- as far as I can say parts are not exchangeable with Marushin.
- double-action is a bit stiff (requires more force) because design is not the best.
- when slide is pulled back sometimes it blocks slightly, probably disconnector wedges up.
- model is nicely heavy, it feels very good in hand :-)
Let me know if you want some more pictures.
I think I will dig out my Marushin from storage and make some comparisons.
BTW: as I have satisfied my curiosity about this Kokusai - if someone likes it, please let me know :-)
