Are there any replacement firing pins and magazine springs currently available for the C-96 pistols? These were considered consumable parts to the point that those two parts were carried as spares in the field when the Broomhandles and Bolos were still being used as weapons of war. One would think that there would still be current made repros available, but I'm having trouble coming across any. I've found spring kits with the firing pin spring, main spring and trigger spring in one convenient envelope, but not the magazine spring.

Am I just not looking in the right place? Or, is there an oportunity for someone with the tools and expertise to fill a small niche here?
