Are the P11 and P40 firing pins the same part?

 

[TxCajun]

Yes, only the slide and barrel differ.

 

[GoesBang]

Ha. I guess I could have disassembled both and found out myself.

Best not to. That darn screw can be problematic.

and the recoil spring?

 

[flareside_ford]

and recoil spring guide rod?

I think the guide rod for the P-40 is a tish longer than the P-11 rod. Not sure about the springs.

 

[TxCajun]

Slightly longer (metal) rod, stronger springs... same firing pin, which was the question.

I think the guide rod for the P-40 is a tish longer than the P-11 rod. Not sure about the springs.

The P40 guiderod is roughly 1/8" longer. The springs are nowhere being close.
