I went to pull the cylinder pin out, but first sprayed some luberplate on the barrel, like I have always done to make the pin slide easier, and not scratch the metal. Then realized the pin doesnt come all the way out like on the old models. The pin also turned, and got locked up. With a flash light I notice there was a flat spot on the pin that slides against the barrel. It had turn to the side , and I had to use needle nose pliers to get it back facing the barrel to free it up. I dont like this pin at all, but they say it was done for the guy who doesnt make sure his pin is locked in, and he shoots it out in the field, and looses the pin. There is also a little hole cut for the the pin to lock in. To change the pin I guess you have to take the ejector rod housing off, too either cut the pin down, or get a shorter pin?
