Gunsmithing Tikka Firing Pin spring

[CSS]

Back several months ago I had CDI inlet my stock/mod. action and install one of the oversized bolt handles he carries.
I have shot it since, but have had very little time to do much.
Finally got my Manners T4A in and got back to the range.

I immediately noticed lite primer marks/strikes. I don't remember this from before and can't find any old brass to compare them.
So, where can I get a firing pin spring and how the hell do you get to it?????????? I looked at brownells and then googled it. Only found complete assemblies.
I do know how to get the shroud off, but can not figure out the rest of it.

Thanks for any help.

Watch the vids... rest *should* be self explanatory.

As far as the spring, contact the importer, Beretta. If it is like my experience, it will cost $400. It seems like every part for the Tikka from Beretta is $400.

It *might* be sufficient to clean and lightly lube the f/p spring. It might be dirty and hanging. If not...

I have seen that too. For fun I used all the parts I could find in Brownells to "build" a T3. Minus the action it was over $2300. I still wonder why Beretta is doing their best to kill a good thing.
