Totes Magoats Posted February 15, 2025 Posted February 15, 2025 I broke the firing pin retractor and when it happened it broke the firing pin. New parts are on the way. I've never had to fit a new retractor and wanted to ask here for any advice when replacing it with a new firing pin. Thanks in advance. Totes Quote

Two Dot Posted February 16, 2025 Posted February 16, 2025 Get Bogus Deals firing pin. It doesn’t use the retractor. 3 Quote
Silvertip Posted February 16, 2025 Posted February 16, 2025 I second Two Dot, also the tip of the his firing pin is more robust and should not break 1 Quote
Jorge Posted February 16, 2025 Posted February 16, 2025 Yes! The Firing Pin from Bogus Deal is the best! Quote
Totes Magoats Posted February 16, 2025 Author Posted February 16, 2025 @Boggus Deal can you PM me details on how to get one of your Firing Pins? Removing the retractor would be ideal. Totes Quote

A new batch should be in my hands in the next few days. 1 Quote
Totes Magoats Posted March 10, 2025 Author Posted March 10, 2025 Just wanted to close the loop here. THANK YOU to everyone that directed me the @Boggus Deal firing pin solution! Got mine in the mail today and 10 min later was out test firing it. What a great solution! I'm all set now and the M12 is much smoother. NOTE: I did leave the bolt lock/retaining lever installed as I really don't notice it interfering with the action at lease on my M12. Ready for my next WB Match! Totes 4 Quote
