| Small pin for retaining the rear locking pin The little spring loaded pin that holds the rear retaining spring.. Can anyone give me the dimensions for it? I dropped mine  and I can't find it, so I'll make one out of stainless weld wire. Anyway, can anyone give me approximate dimension of the tiny pin?

| You DROPPED the pin? oh gawd.  (talked with him, turns out it is not his fault. He's blaming gravity. Says he was just abiding the law.)

| Rake a magnet across the floor or the carpet. You may be lucky. I have a long bar magnet just for that type of situation. Lucky it's not a grenade pin, or you would get no sleep....  |

| Tried the magnet and empty vacuum cleaner tricks already.. I have access to 1/16th, 3/32, and 1/8" stainless TIG welding rod that I can cut to any length. I'm guessing it's around 3/32" and around 1/4" long..

| Are you talking about the takedown pin detent? If so why bother? A new takedown pin is $4 or the detent with spring is $2 or less. Isn't that part staked in?

| The part I lost was what staked it. It's the small pin that goes into the detent on the takedown pin. Like I said, I made one from a pc of stainless welding rod.. Matter of minutes, with no shipping charges, gas charges, or time spent trying to explain to someone on the phone what I was after.. Come to think of it, I got paid to make it, too..
