Do you mean the factory sells oversized pins for fitting in the field? If I were having a new pin made from scratch I'd specify using A2 machined to exact size, then hardened to Rockwell C 50-52. Most any fair sized machine shop can do that. Silvers I AM SILVERS, NOT SLIVER = two different members. I'm in the northeast, the other member is in MT.
