  • Old S&W 916-T Shotgun Firing Pin Shot OUT?!?!

    Strangest thing happened... I've put about 500 rounds through this old girl and no issues... and she is an old girl. Eastfield brand MFG by S&W 916-T.

    I racked the action and dry fired it and out came the firing pin! I was like "WTF was that." I crawled all over the floor and found what came out.

    Anyone here ever have that happen with their shotgun?

    Yes I have. It was a Remington shotty that I had that happen to. What I had found out is that the firing pin actually broke and I had merely found the broken part that fell on the floor. Luckily the local gun shop had a new firing pin in stock.

    Here ya go incase you need some parts .. also, there is a firing pin retainer screw listed. Might just need to be tightened up??

        You're welcome Brotha! At the least you have the measurements I suppose. There are a few more places out there that deal ONLY with firing pins as well.

            If you can't find one you can mail me the old one and I can make a new one for you on my friends lathe. Just let me know.
