I am a noob here. I have been searching the threads and google for info on how to replace one of these pins. I see a couple things about if they are loose, but what if it is broken off, with the stub still in the brass frame, slightly recessed in the hole ?
A local gunsmith would not touch it, saying the brass is soft and the bit would wander and damage the frame, and that it is safe to shoot with one pin. I don't think he wanted to bother with it.
ideas ? Just drill slowly and carefully ?
I ordered a new pair of pins from Cimarron two weeks ago and was told they would ship ' soon '.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
