The last T14 I bought had a broken firing pin, so I retipped it myself. It was fairly straightforward, I faced it, drilled it and silver soldered a slightly oversized tip in the hole, then I turned it to the correct diameter and trimmed to the correct length. It's an easy procedure, the only thing you need to watch is the depth of the hole. You don't want to go all the way through, you only need to drill deep enough to hold the tip straight while you're soldering (maybe 1/2-3/4 of the way trough).
