Is it possible to replace the firing pin a Mk 4 webley and how do you remove the broken one, or do you have to replace the complete hammer.
Does any one know were i can get a firing pin or would i need to get one made.
Thanks in advance for any info.

The .38 cal. Mark IV had a rivet which held the firing pin in place. Pop out the rivet with a punch and the firing pin should come out of the hammer. The larger .455 Mark VI had the firing pin integral with the hammer and modernly I would build up the firing pin by welding to the existing one and then reshaping it.
