Jericho pin walk

[Optimod]

I have a surplus Jericho 941 F SAO (baby eagle). After two mags (30 rd) the trigger pin has walked nearly 100/1000th out the left side of the frame. Anyone seen this?

I have the IMI surplus 941F with the factory custom single action trigger, and every couple hundred rounds I'll see the pin walk about 1/64" out the left side of the frame as well. I'm eventually probably just gonna drop a good McMaster-Carr roll pin in there and call it a day, like I did with the recoil guide end pin on my CETME.

It's still by a long shot my most reliable firearm, and my most accurate pistol. I guess they all have to have quirks.

1/10" as you're describing seems like an awful lot though. If I were you I'd probably do the same, but sooner rather than later.

I have. Tear down scheduled for this weekend. My gut tells me that the pin is going to be bent.

if the pin isn't required to rotate to work....then...use a tiny tiny tiny drop of red LT from the outside and dry it quickly with a hair dryer

this should stop it leaching out and still allow the pin to be removed if needed

I’ve considered a number of options to address the symptom but I would prefer to figure out the cause and fix it right. If push comes to shove I’ll turn down a screw, tap one side of the receiver and have a thread retention pin.
