He dropped price by $5.00. Neither this firing pin or my old firing seem to look like replacements seen on line. The first pic is an online replacement. The second is one of mine. Notice how the end of the replacement is square and the old one comes to a point. From the clearance it looks like...

I bought the bolt assembly off ebay. Thank you for your help.

Can someone please share a definitive procedure for properly cleaning a Mossberg .22 bolt action. If I google it the results come back with lots of different ways each author does it and of course lots of comments and arguments about how they do it! I decided to turn to the Forum for the...

I sent the seller a message asking him to show the bolt assembly apart. You can't see the firing pin in the ads pictures.

The action says " New Haven" model 42. I can't tell if mine is a New Haven.
