[QUOTE="jonoMT, post: 217656, member: 9463"] NesikaChad, thanks for the additional info. Out of curiosity, I measured the protrusion of both pins: Rem: .051" Tubbs: .064" Another thing that jibes with J E Custom's statement that manufacturers keep odd-sized parts around is that I've noticed you can't buy a replacement Remington firing pin (at least not through the suppliers I checked). I suppose they really do custom fit the less expensive parts. I wish Tubbs had mentioned the possibility in bolt variations. Looks like I threw $60 away. Oh well, that's the only gun-related purchase I've ever regretted...other than not telling my wife about one of my rifles. So she went out and bought a new piano without telling me. Lesson learned: just get out and shoot, then shoot some more. [/QUOTE]
