Good advise. Especially the original HSc pistols.
The post-war mfg was redesigned to eliminate the fragile firing pin design used in the wartime and pre war pistols.
Alot of the original HSc's w/ broken firing pins are done so by people (trying) to remove them in disassembly. Some just fail from use, maybe poor wartime QC involved too.
The very thin front half with the globe shaped pivot portion breaks off,,but the rear half will fit back in place and make the pistol appear to function correctly in manual operation. Safety works, you can see the back end of the firing pin, etc.
Everything looks go but it won't go bang.
Post war HSc uses an entirely different shaped & heavier pin.
