    T1x firing pin broken

    Today I took the T1x out to do some plinking. It fired one shot and I noticed a weird little pin drop out. Tried to fire another round and it didn't go off. Long story short my firing pin had snapped off.

    I don't dry fire it deliberately so I'm a bit disappointed.

    The next question is where and how do I get another firing pin?

    I've sent berreta nz an email. It's only a year old maybe 1000 rounds through it.

    I've broken two firing pins in my T1x, Beretta NZ have fixed it both times.

    There is an aftermaret option that is meant to be nearly indestructable, made in the USA from titanium that is supposedly dry fire safe.

    People love to give Beretta NZ shit, but a few years back I needed a firing pin for a Tikka T3 ( was on a wildcat that was shortened a fraction to much ) they supplied a new replacement unit with spring etc straight away & was a really reasonable price considering how expensive a complete T3 bolt is, from memory $170ish
    Shoot it, root it & then BBQ it !!!

    I broke a spring in my Sako years ago. Alright, not quite firing pin serious. The NZ agents at the time supplied a replacement gratus.
