    Remington Firing Pins

    In looking at the VI Shooters site i know the middle FP is a Remington A3.

    The bottom one is a late 03/early A3 but I can't identify the D that is stamped on it. It came out of the bolt on an A3 I am returning to original after being lightly sportered. The bolt body on that one is a Smith-Corona but is mixed with other Remington parts.

    The top one is blued like an Remington A3 and mostly shaped like one but the R looks like it was stamped after being blued and is not the same font R as on the middle one. Also the knurling is different.

    Any other help would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks,

    Norm
    All three firing pins are Remington.

    The "D" is a poorly-stamped "R".

    The bottom firing pin is from a late '03 or early '03-A3.

    I agree with ChuckinDenver, all were originally blued.
