Trigger Pin Question

I just put the new lighter spring in my Ruger 77 MkII and it is much better. My question is.... when I went to "knock" out the pin holding the trigger on it was loose and slid right out. Put it back together and it seems to stay without moving but am I supposed to take a sharp punch and "peen" a little spot on both sides by the pin to kind of "lock" it in place? Like I said, I put the punch on to tap it out and just the pressure of the punch against it pushed it out. Maybe it stays in when put in the stock? :confused:

The trigger housing fits into a grove in the inleting that wil keep the pin from falling out, so don't wory about it. You would probably have a hard time peening it flat, that pin is extremely hard. If you are concerned, use a sharp prick punch on the housing itself to lock the pin in place.
