Default P.1 Frame Reinforcement Hex Pin

The P.1 / Alloy framed P.38 pistols had to be reinforced with a hex steel pin due to frame damage caused when higher power loads (think +P or Nato power rounds) were used. It was placed just above the trigger guard.

Early pistols were retrofitted, later ones came this way from the factory.

I've marked the pin in RED in this picture:
