opinions-thoughts needed
I picked up an older gun on GB (no longer made)it in very good shape
has orig.box looks like it has not been shot very much.
Problem is parts can not be found.in my research on the
gun it seems to be prone to fireing pin breakage.
I have not fired it.
should I shoot it or sell it?? see if I can get my money out of it.

Talk to your gunsmith friend. Get advice from him. 0 -

I bet they have it. If the firing pin is not broke you can take it to a machinist to have him make you a spare. Easy.0 -

ok obiwan
It's a volunteer enterprises mark v commando.
I still would like more opinions
I think I may have made a mistake in this purchase.0 -
If I couldn't find a new pin, I believe I would have a machine shop make me another one - maybe out of tougher steel - shoot the new one, and save the original to use if I wanted to sell the gun.[:)] 0 -

+1, maybe three spares while he is at it. Not to be a smart arse, that is the sort of research to do beforeyou buy. Live and learn eh?0 -

Edit....don't buy that firing pin blueprint. Found other posts that it's not a good drawing that a machinist could understand.0
