The firing pins are in the mail. I do not plan on building a new pin out of drill rod or other material. Just wondering if anyone has advice on treating the pins once shaped. I spoke with Jack Rowe, who is providing the parts, and he indicated they needed to be hardened. I am thinking the tip should be heated to a cherry red and then quenched in oil. Then heat the pin to a dark straw and quench in oil. I have never heat treated metal parts before and I would appreciate info from anyone who has.
