Rimfire Found/purchased - Bergara B14R old style striker assembly

[357Max]

Who still has their original striker assembly laying around?

It's the one pictured on top below. Bergara has been sending replacements (bottom in picture).

How do you know which one you have? Guess I’ll have to email bergara.

14 coils on striker spring is new style & 17 coils is old style that they are/will send a replacement for.

It appears the only change is the thicker spring with less coils, but they sent complete striker assemblies as replacement.

Do you know the reason for the change?

From the Bergara thread on hear. It was reported people were getting light strikes/unreliable ignition with the old version. It had a lighter spring that was smaller diameter with more coils (17 coils I think on the old one).
