firing pin installation for Moss. 500a

So I purchased a used Mossberg 12 gauge pump 500a only to find out the firing pin is broken.

 

I ordered a new pin, pin spring and washer from Midway.

 

I looked online for an actual close up diagram of the bolt and firing pin assembly but can only find unreadable diagrams.

 

I am pretty good with my hands and I am confident that I can replace the pin, just need a few pictures or hand drawings if anyone has to show what goes where.... :)

 

-Thanks.

    Thanks everyone. I figure by the picture, the order is the firing pin, the washer and then the spring which then is against the bolt lock?
