G.T., did the original craftsman make a conscious choice for that particular diameter pin..? the obvious answer would seem to be "yes" because they made so many pistols, all alike...which begs the question, why? does this yield a better product..? is the adjacent wall thickness going to be fragile if a larger diameter pin is used...? or, was the design group just using up stock diameter because they had produced it incorrectly in the first place and had a major pile of it on the racks...?
