willks84 Posted December 14, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 where would i pick one up and how would i go about doing it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon R Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) Take off the stock. Look at the action - it will have a retaining pin - holding the relevant firing pin in place. Using a suitable drift / punch - tap it out - make sure the firing pin is not spring loaded. Just be careful. Knock out the retainer - extract the firing pin - put in the replacement and knock the retainer back. You will probably find a video on You Tube. Peter Dyson sells the cheap pins - http://www.peterdyso...IRING_PINS.html They have increased to £10.

Andy135 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 (edited) The process to change the pins is detailed in the link below. Very straightforward. http://forums.pigeonwatch.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/223574-replacing-the-striker-pins-on-a-browning-citori/ Edited December 14, 2012 by Andy135 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlaserF3 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 It's a Medallist ie; a Fias not a Browning/Miroku. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy135 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 It's a Medallist ie; a Fias not a Browning/Miroku. But the process will basically be the same. It's not rocket science. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
robbiep Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I can't imagine a gunsmith would charge more than £30 or £40 for doing this work, unless you are really comfortable taking apart that might be a better bet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
