15-22 spares??

I'm looking for replacement firing pins for the Club's S&W M&P 15-22's as repeated dry firing (current serving and ex- forces chaps 8-) ) has nearly destroyed the fitted ones.

I've had a good look through t'internet thingy but all I'm seeing is horror stories of S&W demanding people send the complete rifles back to them as, apparently, we ordinary people cannot be trusted to carry out minor technical work like swap one part for another :o

Does anyone know where said parts can be obtained without losing the rifles to the UK agents for God knows how long any????

Just for everyone's information..... it's now three weeks and two emails down the line with absolutely no response from these people.
Unless someone is aware of a communication problem with this company any???? , are we to assume that their idea of customer service is somewhat lacking?? :bad:

That's very concerning, especially as it's the most popular .22 MSR in the country.

Which dealer did you buy the rifle from?

I bought 2 or 3 replacement firing pins last year for my 15-22 but I'm bug*ered if I can remember where from, I'll have a trawl through my emails & see if I can find the info.

When I needed an extractor claw for my 15-22 I phoned Shield PSD, answered the phone quickly and got my part within a couple of days.

I have just called Shield on your behalf, they are expecting the next delivery of firing pins in a couple of weeks, price approx £15, ITL don't have any.
