When you replace the pin, you may have to force it a bit to make it snap in place. This could possibly be enough to crack a pin that's too hard. Whatever the cause may have been, there's no reason for concern. Just replace it and keep on shooting.

Hawk62, it would appear that you got great answers to your questions. Plus I learned from reading the advice. I love how helpful folks on this are in solving problems.
