Those things are notorious for breaking firing pins.

I had one with a broken firing pin.

The gunsmith at the big box store where I bought it broke two more testing them after he installed them.

The big box refunded my purchase cost.

Don't count on being able to get a lasting fix if you find the part.

Yes they break easily,,many are broken during an attempt to remove or replace them in the slide.

Popperts Gun Parts lists them,,don't know if in stock or not but worth a try:

Poppert's Obsolete Gun Parts Specials

(Drop down menu to Mauser HSc)


Same with Bob's Gun Parts
Mauser Rifle and Pistrol Repair parts, Mauser Spsorter Stocks

Empire Gun Shop in Danville, PA.
No website, ph# 570-275-5482.
Lots of parts military and commercial. One man shop. Does a lot of Gun Shows so is often gone on weekends.

There used to be )still is?) a website with that name (Empire G/S),,but don't click on it! It was horribly corrupted and would lock up your computer. Don't know if that's still around.

Rpg nailed it.

Bought one in Memphis, in the late 60's. Nice condition. Dry fired it once, and the firing pin shot out of the barrel, bounced of a door knob, and fell.

Had it replaced at York Arms, in Memphis. The replacement didn't last through the first box of 32's.

Sold it, after replacing the firing pin, again. I warned the purchaser of it's history, but he was a collector, and didn't plan on firing it.
