Good educated guess old boy! Therefore the 1.1mm side of the guage should touch the tip of the protruding firing pin at the very least, but if the pin is longer than the other side 1.35mm of the guage, it is considered too long by the Wehrmacht standards. Patrick, if your firing pins do not touch the 1.1 side of the guage, it only means that they would have been rejected by the Wehrmacht standard, not that they have necessarily used up their useful life. If you have erratic ignition with known good ammunition is the only time I would have them replaced. This was really fun research! And Patrick, that is really a neat P-08 related accessory you have obtained. Any more where that one came from? -John http://boards.rennlist.com/upload/FPin.jpg
