We have tried a half-dozen different variations of pins described as 1889-model firing pins, and all are too short. I hate to relegate this to wall-hanger status. Anyone have any idea where I can get a genuine replacement for this relic? Thanks. Regards, Jack

If that doesn't work, I have an old time gunsmith that can build or fix anything, and does it unbelievably cheap. Send me a PM. Dave
