I've got a broken firing pin for a B14r in .22lr. Wondering if anybody in Canada does warranty work for Bergera or if I can purchase another pin from anyone in Canada?
 
Not sure how I broke it. I don't " dry fire practice" with it. I have dry fired it multiple times thinking that there was more ammo in the magazine though, but that's over 1-1.5 years. I'll try to get hold of Bergera in the morning.

I'd love to hear how you broke it, dryfire or just heavy use?
And your solution to finding one!!!
Best of luck

just read today about how wartime M1's would need firing pins replaced (as well as other 'in the field' mods and fixes from heavy use in sand and rain).

I guess after enough shots, it's just a consumable. My guess is over 10k rds?

Firing pins should easily go 50k-100k. Depends on their use and what they're hitting and the condition you keep them, just like all mechanical systems.
I've gone over 100k on two 9mm frames without change.
But as a competitive shooter banking on the wins, I would always carry spare parts.
Nothing worse than a defective metal forcing you to take a month or two off your season while you locate hard to find parts or cross border shipping.
