Fireing pin spring

Hey.
I have an old Savage 24H-dl. With the. 22mag/20ga.

Yesterday when I was at the shooting range i got a little surprise. The. 22mag only missfired.
When i looked close to inspect, the firepin pin was gone!
Don't know if it fell out last time i used the gun, or when cleaning it.
Anyway, i have ordered new pins both for the 22 mag and the 20ga. And also new scews that hold them in place.
But the springs I can't find anywhere. They are out of stock at Gunpartscorp.com.
My options are limited because i live in Sweden.


I read somewhere about someone using the spring from an pen, or from a Bic lighter?

How stiff should the spring be? I think that the spring should be quite soft, can't need much force to puch the pin back, right?

Next question. How high is the spring when compressed? If i make the spring to long the fireing pin won't go all the way out?

Is it the same Springs for the shootgun and the rimfire pins?

If anyone have a spring or two for sale, or know where to buy them I would be very thankful.

Thanks in advanced.
