gun repair

This may have been posted in the past but I need to try to fix an old 12 ga. I need to locate a firing pin for a Noble 66J. I got one from numrich but it was too short Is it possible to take the replacement pin and make a new one? has anyone tried duplicating a firing pin?

Im sure it could be done. When I was around 14 or 15 I had a cheap .22 that the firing pin broke on. my father was a machinist so he took the broken pin to work in the morning and came back that night with a perfect replacement pin that he made at work. I still have the gun but haven't shot it in years.

Maybe try a machine shop or a tool and die maker.

The problem I have is i don't know if the replacement pin is the right shape. I don't have the original pin.
