Firing Pin

[4dawgma]

Hello fellas, I'm new to the site so any help would be much appreciated cause not sure which forum to post this in. My problem stems from using my nova to bust ice near the end of the season. Well my firing pin froze up and missed out on the action til i got her thawed out(cigarette lighter ). Two days later I had some trouble again although it wasn't with freezing. I think the water in there as caused some rust in the firing mechinism. Is there some way to get in there or do you just get a new one. Thanks

First off Id check to make sure that it is your firing pin in the first place, because you dont wanna replace something thats perfectly fine.

Try taking your gun out and shooting some rounds through it, if your still getting misfires then I would completely break down the gun(use your owners manual if you dont know how to do that) and clean everything.

If that doesnt work, id take your gun into your local gun shop. Because there might be other problems as well.

i gave her a good cleaning but haven't shot it since then but don't have owners manual and never pulled apart firing mechinism. not even sure how which is why i was asking i've had this gun fer 5-6 years

go to benelliusa.com and get the manual from your gun's page. The newly redesigned website has the owners manual linked right next to the gun. You should read that and take the gun apart to really see whats happening before going off to buy a new gun.

thanks, found the website and looks like the pin comes out fairly easy. and i didn't mean buy a new gun just the mechinism:D

on the action "block" there is a screw looking pin, pull that and the firing pin and spring come out. simple as that.
