Connecting pin

Help--the connecting pin on my 1917 Erfurt P.08 seems to have "grown" a few thousands of an inch, making it a tight fit (at first) between the frame ears. Once I get it past the ears, it seems to fit OK. It does stick out just a little beyond the reciever--enough to feel it with a finger. I don't remember this condition from before, and the gun hasen't had any unusual handling or treatment--just a short shooting session a few weeks ago. Ideas anybody?
