Sospender Firing Pin

I need green firing pin on my World Class Sospenders.

The rearm kits come with a firing pin and CO2 cannister however I already have two cannisters and I do not need a third.

Does anyone know where I can only get the firing pin itself ?

The manufacturer will not sell them except for a kit.

Also has anyone improvised this pin ?

If I have to obtain another CO2 then it will obtain a blue.

DO NOT try to improvise it.

You will A: void the warranty and B: possibly cause yourself massive harm.

Just get another kit.
How are you blowing them up without using cartridges?

This is a new pfd and when I was tinkering with it I broke the firing pin. The CO2 was not installed which I knew better but I did not realize at the time that once the pin is broken that it is not useable. The improvice idea is not worth my saftey.

Does anyone still have connections to obtaining the firing pin only?

I realize that if I can not find a firing pin then I will need to get the rearm kit by springtime.

You should be able to get the pin and the bobbin, without buying the CO2. I used to get them at West Marine. Came in packs of 2 or 3.
