Firing pin replacement?

Hi guys--well, I learned about repeated dry-firing, the firing pin broke while the pistol was being "tested" for new grips--it broke in half and the front half flew out of the barrel

. As I recall, there are no sources specifically for spare parts, right? Anyone have a suggestion as to how I can get a pin without having to buy a whole pistol?

Thanks Norm--got it! We were thinking we might have to have a gunsmith make one

... Christian tried to find one, but he put in P64, didn't think to try "polish Makarov"...
