ak_sallyUp for sale are newly manufactured reproduction firing pins SPECIFICALLY for MG 08 and MG 08/15 Maxim machine guns. Anyone who owns or has owned a Maxim machine gun knows how difficult firing pins have become to find in recent years, whether surplus or reproductions. Now you no longer have to worry about breaking a factory firing pin and being left with a really expensive paper weight. As shown in the pictures these are direct dimensional copies of the originals though now made with better steel and heat treated to roughly 45 HRC. These have been tested and shown to have no deformation, cracks, breaks, or bends within the 1000 round control test performed during testing. REMEMBER - FIRING PINS ARE CONSUMABLE COMPONENTS!! No firing pin will last forever, however these are being offered as a equal/better quality reproduction of factory firing pins that have become impossible to find in recent years. *IMPORTANT* *PLEASE READ* These firing pins WILL REQUIRE FITTING TO YOUR LOCK. These were tested on 8 different locks of different dates and manufacturer. Given the WIDE variance in lock fitment due to specific manufacturer, age, wear patterns, etc., we have slightly over-built these by .003"-.008" on different surfaces to ensure that we leave room to accommodate a wide variety of tolerances, depending on the tolerances of each persons locks. The tip of the pin is supposed to stand .080" proud of the lock face per factory specifications. These have been made intentionally long, so they can be trimmed/polished to that measurment for each persons lock, also taking into account wide variances in tolerances. So please understand PRIOR to purchasing that YOU or a COMPETENT GUNSMITH WILL have to fit these firing pins to your lock. If you have any questions not answered here about these firing pins please ask. I ship via USPS Priority Mail and shipping cost is $11.50 to anywhere in the continental US (I do combine shipping for orders of multiple firing pins to save you $ on shipping). I only sell and ship CONUS. I typically have items shipped within 24 hours of payment. I accept payment by USPS Postal Money Order, PayPal, Venmo, and Zelle. Thanks for looking and God Bless!!
