You Folks have hit the nail on the head.
GL did not put a hole in this location for the simple reason that it was already the weakest portion of the Yoke.
Instead he went to a bit of trouble to circumvent this problem.
There are no short cuts allowed at this point on the yoke.
Putting a pivot pin hole in this position just added another insult to the design.
( Elongation is visible in the shape of the pivot pin hole. )
Also I feel that some one who liked to fire "Hot Loads" over a period of time added to the problem.
I rebuke that person for passing a weakened and damaged weapon off on an unsuspecting purchaser.
I feel that he was unscrupulous in failing to take his lumps and passing a lighted Bomb off on the next guy just for a few bucks. Shame! Shame!
