Is there a trick or special tool needed to get the firing pin out of the bolt?
I am stumped on how to get this apart. Any help or suggestions will be appreciated. I have looked at the diagrams and they are no help or maybe I am just overlooking something very obvious to most people.

Before you go pulling it apart do you have a replacement? Otherwise I would just ship it to Ruger and in a couple weeks it will be all better.

There was a firing pin related recall on the P-85s about the second year they were on the market . If your gun didn't get a new pin then , maybe you can get one now , if the recell was safety related . I'd give Ruger a call ! I don't know if they marked or how they marked the repaired guns , but they know !
Don't forget to have your Liberals spayed or neutered !

You just have to ship it to 'em.. They'll do the rest.

You might give Davidson's a call and see if the pistol was one sold through them. If it was it has a lifetime replacement warranty. I'm a dealer and have used their warranty a couple times. They will send your local dealer a replacement and then handle the exchange on the spot. You won't be without your pistol for a minute.
