Re: New member and query asking for help.

I'll just say, if you need something from this side of the pond to yours, I'll reship for you. I try to have friends in every country and many places won't ship there if it's a real company or ebay or whatever. If it's legal you can send it to me and I will reship whatever the postage costs. I'm ac...

Re: New member and query asking for help.

No, I'm not a museum keeper, or anything like that, I'm simply passionate about weapons, and increasingly about weapons w...

Re: New member and query asking for help.

Sergio, Because you have the main part of the firing pin it would be an easy fix to drill the end and silver solder in a new tip. This would need to be done on a lathe.
