My Winchester 1894 in 25-35 DST will not fire when the trigger is pulled and the hammer falls
Possibly needs a new firing pin?
Gunsmiths in Ohio or other areas?
Thanks!

Sounds like you’re on the right track. Firing pin not a major repair; Homestead, Brownell’s and Midway should have replacement pins.
