Looks like your rifle has certainly seen some action. Why did you have to cut the firing pin!?

It froze into the cocking knob threads and wouldn't unscrew no matter what I tried, cutting it was the only option left. I'm gonna turn the longer part into a pin punch, so it doesn't go to waste

Ohhh... you cross threaded it... that *****. Did you know that one of the notches on the Mosin multi-tool can be used as a firing pin wrench? That tool is pretty handy!

That rifle has been shooting a lot. Maybe you should have had a pro gun smith taken a look at before hacking away?

Now that I think about it more, I probably should have but I've got the bolt together again and I'm working on getting the rest of the cut firing pin out. So far it's working good
