Anybody have the factory spec for the overall length of the firing pin for a Hammerli 208 - or a new friring pin they can measure?

Hi Spencer,

Have just removed firing pin from a very lightly-used (by previous owner) 208. It looked almost unused. Since acquiring it recently, I suppose I've put less than 500 rounds through it.

Overall length of firing pin: 41.50mm (1.634in) according to my known-accurate digital vernier. I can't believe that the hammer wear has shortened it more than a couple of thou (0.001").

Hope this late info. is of use.
