I can't answer that Craig but I can tell you Claudio pointed out that the oval pins should not be tapered like that. Increases the ease with which they can break free and slide out. As we saw by the condition at acquisition.

It's interesting to me how highly regarded Lindner guns are (as are numerous other makes) and yet how easily a skilled craftsman like Claudio can see elements that could have been better. And I don't mean things that would have added dozens of hours to production. Just simple, straightforward things like the oval pins.

The world cries out for such: he is needed & needed badly- the man who can carry a message to Garcia
