Cuz Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 Is this part really necessary? I decided to clean my Stoeger M3K shotgun since it finally stopped working, and when I took apart the bolt, the firing pin retaining pin O-ring was split and destroyed. What does this o-ring really do? Do I have to have it? I finished cleaning and assembled the shotgun without it, but before I take it out and shoot it I was wondering if I "HAVE" to have that part or is it possibly optional? Thanks, Cuz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurtm Posted September 25, 2022 Share Posted September 25, 2022 The O ring just helps hold the pin in. The O ring goes in the groove in the head of the pin. It isn't necessary, it just helps on not loosing the pin during disassembly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cuz Posted September 25, 2022 Author Share Posted September 25, 2022 Thanks Kurt. I will order a replacement when I can find one, but it’s good to know I can run the gun in the meantime without doing any damage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
