How do the firing pin and extractor measure up to TandmKross's "Firestarter" firing pin and "Eagle Talon" extractor? — 1 Answer

The KrossFire bolt features a laser-cut steel firing pin and steel extractor to reduce failures to fire and failures to eject. The firing pin is also cross-pinned to restrict the vertical movement and strike the cartridges in a consistent manner, reducing misfires. Both of these parts are upgrades from the OEM stamped steel parts. You're also getting a polished, hardened tool steel bolt that has been CNC-machined to much more precise tolerances, resulting in precise headspace, increased reliability, and significantly smoother operation of the bolt and trigger.
The Fire Starter is a titanium replacement firing pin that is a stronger than OEM part, intended as a replacement part for broken or deformed firing pins. Same thing with the Eagle's Talon, being a hardened steel machined replacement part.
