Could use a Lee-Enfield firing pin tool

[DireWolf]

So my attempt at making one out of a 6mm socket failed, made the pins too long and small so they bent . I probably will have another go at making one, but I figured this was worth a shot. I need to get rid of the cosmoline that is probably in this No.4 bolt body. Is there anybody in Southern Alberta that has one that I could borrow? Pretty please?

(And no, I cannot use the oven technique due to the domestic uproar that comes from that.)

I had one made by a machinist at work, gave him a drawing I think from a book by maybe frank haus or something.

Do you have access to a steam cleaner? I have used one of the shark canister ones for cleaning many milsurp rifles. Heats up and pushes out all the grease. Works well for all the rifle parts.

I manage to make one out of a 6mm socket and a dremel.
