madmax1299 Posted August 30, 2023 Report Share Posted August 30, 2023 Anyone have an suggestions for getting the pin that holds the resting bar in and out? I know it’s a cardinal sin, but I want to install an original resting bar I have (so I don’t want to notch it) Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TSMGguy Posted August 31, 2023 Report Share Posted August 31, 2023 (edited) You're right, you probably don't want to notch an original Bakelite resting bar as it's too likely to break on installation. I'd drive out the original pin and install a new part or replica. Bergflak used to carry these. His pages appear to be down right now. Search Bergflak MP-40 parts. The pin is on the same page as resting bars. Edited August 31, 2023 by TSMGguy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would really want to use the pin thats already in it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BRMCII Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Bergflak is out of most of his MP40 inventory, so good luck...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
