1900 luger firing pin

I didn't pay attention to this post until now. Difficult to tell but based on your photo you may have two P-08 firing pins. The M1900 pin has a very different profile (see photo). A P-08 FP will fit in a 1900 Luger and it will go "click" when you pull the trigger but not "bang." Both pins appear intact. Does your M1900 pin project from the breech block? If not it may be the wrong FP.

Quite possible. After 101 years. Wups! My math is a bit off...111 years.

That P08 firing pin does not go into my 1900 AE breech block. The tail is too thick.

Both pins protrude from their breech faces.

I see what you mean about the profile being different (on yours). Mine is a later 1900 AE (serial 13246). Is your 1900 an early one???

George -

Could you post a pic of your 1900 firing pin???

Here's a 1902 firing pin. I think they may be the same.

The 1900&1902 are the same type of firing pins.
Thanks,George
