Hello, and just curious about 2 parts I have found in my store. Don't know what year I accumulated these any ideas let me know I don't want to tell someone what it is and find out I am wrong. I assume the one is a firing pin but what too I don't know. The other rod I have no idea.

What's the length of the rod in the second picture? Looks like it could be a shotgun plug.

The top pic is a mag release for some gun, (cant place it, but Ive seen it).
Second pic is a mainspring rod for a model 60 Marlin.

A shotgun choke wrench the top one ain't. I'm thinking slide release for a shotgun. Doubt the other is a firing pin. Hordes of assorted stuff has parts like that.
Oh and my whole apartment is full of stuff I have no idea where it came from, never mind what it is. snicker.

Now that you mention it I think it is a guide rod for a mainspring. I will have to measure to see if it is a marlin 60 or not but thank you. That is a winning answer lol. The first pick is not a choke wrench. No idea what but not a choke wrench. I can't find a shotgun that has the part for latch that looks like that.

The other part is a case lifter for same rifle that guide rod came from.

My Beretta O/U shotgun has a similar wrench -- a choke wrench for 12 and 20 ga and an extractor for stuck cases.

If the two were together the rod may be an auto safety- load the gun and it goes on safety .Those of us who don't like that feature can simply remove the rod ! To remove the auto safety on a Ruger it must be sent back to Ruger !
Otherwise it's probably a guide rod for a spring !

Can't find the rod but the tool is here !

My "multi-purpose tool " , one end ground for a screwdriver, wrench for 20 and 12 ga chokes, drift [punch ], two shot shell extractors, 20 and 12 .Total length 5".
