Firing Pin for .357 Astra

[fireflyfather]

OK, tried the gunsmithing forum, but didn't hear anything really helpful (for my situation).

I need to replace the firing pin on an Astra .357. The only two sources that show up on a Google search are bud's gun shop (out of stock, no more likely to come in), and egunparts (same story).

Anyone know of a source for these firing pins?

Try these guys: http://www.jackfirstgun.com/

It is a small gun shop that has several cnc machines and make new parts for lots of older guns. Real nice folks!
You also might go over to www.gunboards.com hit the trader and look for a post by "Bob in St. Louis. He has a connection in Spain and has TONS of star and Astra parts. I can't remember for sure, but I think I modified a S&W firing pin for an old Astra 44 mag I had.
Good Luck!

Whoops, should have said bob's, not bud's. I already checked with them. No dice. I'll be looking at that other site soon. Looks like they actually have a subforum for Spanish pistols. Nice.
