Hi all,

I thought tagging on this thread might be better than starting a new one. New member, so I hope its ok.

A few months back I picked up a nice 32 Safety Hammerless 1st Model (1891). Found out later after buying dies and loading up a few rounds that it has a broken firing pin.

I have the side plate off, but that's it so far. Does the cross pin drift out from the left (side plate side)? Any recommendations on further disassembly/assembly to replace the firing pin?

I'm quite new to these old guns and am picking up experience with gunsmithing, so any advice is eagerly accepted! Boy do I want to get this old gal firing.

Thanks,
Steve
