THANK YOU SO MUCH!!! I'm going to look this weekend; now that you've confirmed that its a light-duty spring that basically just needs to fit, I am more confident in finding one. Is there any chance you either have, or would be willing, to send me pictures of the breakdown of the slide and firing pin assembly? I found a schematic, but it doesn't look exactly like my gun and I'm wondering if I may be missing another piece. Again, I GREATLY APPRECIATE all your help and if this is too much to ask, I certainly understand. I don't really know where else to turn, and seeing that you have the same gun that I now have and you obviously know what you're doing....well, thought I'd ask. I don't know the proper protocol for asking thru this WEBsite and I don't want to do anything wrong, so here is my EMAIL and if "no" is the answer, I certainly understand. THANK YOU!

Excellent info and THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME AND KNOWLEDGE!! Yeah, the gun is in pretty good shape...can't say I'd ever fire it 'cause there is a certain comfort knowing my grandpa was the last to pull the trigger; haven't decided yet, but may build a display case and hang it on my wall. But, I would like to have it fire-worthy in case I someday change my mind. Is there any chance you'd know of any place I could find a replacement firing pin spring? I checked Numrich and GunPartsCorp without any luck. Not sure if there is a suitable substitution possible. Again, ANY suggestions or info is VERY much appreciated! MarkJ (polock)

My grandfather just passed and I found his childhood Model 47 in the attic. Looks to me like the firing pin is broken so I've found a replacement and am planning to order but, I don't know what other piece(s) may be damaged/missing. Is there a firing pin spring in this model? I found a schematic on a WEBsite, but it isn't clear to me whether a firing pin spring is present on all versions of this gun. Thanks for any help you can give!
