to groove or not to groove

most folks that worry about this just get a grooved, WWII type pin and use that one when they shoot and then replace the original pin back in after the shooting/cleaning sessions. Takes about a minute to swap them out.

thanks for the information.
so it is a good idea to machine it anyway. but how does a grooved firing pin look like. I still could not manage to find a proper picture for the machining process.
