Japanese Type 1 rifle MISSING FIRING PIN

i bought a Japanese type 1 rifle a few months back and only recently was able to take it to the range. Upon arriving i loaded the rifle with 5 rounds in the magazine(Reloads). I worked the bolt and put a round in the chamber. I pulled the trigger. CLICK. I waited 30 seconds and investigated the round. No primer strike. I tried a different round and the same thing happened.
Then I took apart the bolt and there was no firing pin. So i am posting this thread to ask if anyone knows were i can get an original or a reproduction firing pin.

this kinda troubles me? Did you inspect this rifle before you tried to fire it? It was recently brought up about how far to inspect a vintage rifle before you fire it. This is a good case study, what if it had major issues?

NRA, you are correct albeit, it is a good thing it failed in the other direction. ;)

Yo-Yo, try Sarcoinc.com

i was able to find one on gunbroker. Thankyou everyone for your help

just wanted to do a quick update. I have since gotten a firing pin and spring from a carcano 91 and have fired the gun. Shot great but not on paper. i will work my reloads close to military configuration and then report back

Sounds good! We look forward to the range report!
I have encountered Japanese rifles with the missing FP before. According to 2 of the Vets that I spoke with about this action, they didn't feel comfortable with them in the house, and in a shooting condition... despite the lack of ammo.... So while it never hurts to be safe.... I assume that a few more of these missing FP rifles are out there... in shooting condition... but to repeat myself... it doesn't hurt to doublecheck that there isn't other outstanding issues.
The last Vet that I spoke with who did this, actually kept his bringback in a shed out back... and sold it for $5.00 during a garage sale... back in the 1990's....
Do you happen to have any photos!!! :)

i can post photos tonight. It has some surface rust but most came of with some mineral spirits. I also treated the dried stock with linseed oil looks good now
