Simonov didnt make it full auto, but if you let the firing pin get real dirty it will slam fire like a full auto.

This is not recommended.

I’ve heard about the slam fire but have never experience it. Some scary stories on the net about it but haven’t run into anyone who actually had it occur.

I’ve heard of that, too.

I heard you can get a firing pin specially redesigned to prevent that. Know anything about that?
