I have a S&W model 642 with a frame-mounted firing pin that sometimes give me light strikes. I have found that Cylinder and Slide sells a longer firing pin for S&W revolvers. How is the firing pin held in place in the frame of the model 642. I know that I will have to remove the side plate, hammer, etc. Is the firing pin held in place by a roll pin, a screw or something else?
