Bob, In "Plans and Specifications of the L.C. Smith Shotgun", the only thing I saw was using 5060 tool steel for firing pins. Another reference in the book on firing pins lists chrome vanadium steel S.A.E. 6150 aternate material :Carpenters 5317 or Solars. (to be used when chrome vanadium is not available).
