I recently acquired a Continental Arms 12ga side by side with side hammers which is missing some parts. It appears to be in very good condition, with the exception of there being no firing pins. The fella had found some which appear to be the correct design, but are too small in diameter, which I can overcome, but I am wondering if anyone here has experience with this type of weapon, or better yet, a drawing. I assume I will need springs of some sort, but have been unable to determine what size/type is needed. The shotgun has "Pat Feb 10-1914" on the side of the receiver, along with a letter "I" encircled on the lower receiver, and matching 5 digit numbers stamped into the receiver, barrel assembly, fore stock wood, and in the metal in the fore stock, being 51XXX.
