Lowall firing pin

[Deputy Dog]

I have a original low wall receiver the firing pin is missing the pin. It was a 22 rimfire I want to re barrel it back to a rimfire. I was told the original firing pin was a two piece pin I cant find one for sale or specs to build it does anyone in boolit land have any ideas:cry:

The hi-wall/lo-wall firing pins would be a challenge to make - The pin itself is round (flat point on rim fire) but has a 'tang" on it that fits a slot in the breech block and also serves as a cam -- I would buy one if possible, myself.
I would be willing to tear mine out and measure and sketch it for you.
I think it would be easiest to silver solder a "tang" to round stock.

pavo I have the body part of the fireing pin less the pin I could drill it and use a drill rod for the pin but now im thinking to go to center fire and chamber it in 22 hornet

Wisner's parts drawings handbook shows three different nose (pin) configutations for the center fire pin --
Having the body of the pin is a blessing --
if you do not have access to a wisners give me a pm and I will copy the page for you --
