Nice tutorial!

How many rounds did it take to wear the pin like that? Crazy!

 

[Josh Smith]

Relatively few, Hayata. I suspect the pin wasn't properly hardened. There were a lot of problems with that particular rifle; the heavy barrel, for example, was setting at an angle and touching the wood.

Regards,
Josh
