Savage firing pin?

Okay, I think I found the one on Ebay you described for $27.95.
It too is not the same as pictured. Already got 2 of those sitting on my reloading bench waiting to be sent back to Midway.
 
Yeah, I woulda thunk Gunshack or Brownells but nope.
I do have a number from Savage's website to try but I'd like to see what I'm buying before I send any money to them.

Pretty much got the same responses from them as well. I don't see how this is possible. Have I got some back of the stock room crusty old models or what? Bought 'em from Sportsman's Warehouse 2 years ago.
 
Nope, got 2 of the wrong ones sitting on my loading bench.

You have the newer firing pin assembly and it's not available from anybody but Savage. Have you called them? The typical case for newer guns is parts are not available from any body but the manufacturer and they may not sell some of them to the public.

I converted a 116 to a 338 Lapua bolt face. The parts on the right are what's required to convert to the older firing pin assembly.
 
It's identical to the one in my Savage 12FP. Later Savages sold through distributors like Cabella's, Sportsmans Whse, etc. can have some unique 'features' that differ from standard production line guns of the same model number....my 12FP 'Cabella's specific' model is a perfect example. I haven't seen the 'new style' pin like this available anywhere in the aftermarket.

I'd call Savage with the serial number and get the correct one right from the source. And an extra. ;) -Al
