WTB- H&A firing pin assembly

buttplatebuttplate Member Posts: 237 ✭✭
Hello!
I am looking for a firing pin for a Hopkins & Allen small frame .22 cal. Safety Police revolver. This is unlike most firing pins because the through pin in the frame acts as a pivot for this lever-looking firing pin and the hammer strikes the back of it to fire a cartridge. I am enclosing a drawing of what I think it should look like.
Thank you!

    these are the type I am used to seeing and I even have some parts for them, you must have something weird.

    Thanks for the reply! I have had to make 2 of these firing pins before, and I thought that someone out there has seen this firing pin and may have a source for it. I just don't want to have to make another one. These firing pins are only on the Hopkins & Allen Safety Hammer .22 top-break revolver. I submitted a request to Numrich for info and availability on this part and they were unaware of this particular item.
    I guess I'll have to break out the old Dremel tool once again.

    yeah sometimes all you can do is make and fit a new part, I probably could make the part also if I had a gun to fit one on. I have some stuff for the older revolvers but don't think I have what you are showing in the drawing.
