    Dye Hinge Frame - Trigger Pin Specs?

    Been cleaning/restoring an 03 Dye Reflex, and was wondering if anyone knew the specs/size for the trigger pin. This 03's trigger is just sluggish/doesn't feel right. There's a lot of side-to-side play in the trigger, and the current pin can be easily removed/barely holds in the frame. Wondering if that's creating an alignment issue causing the drag/sluggishness?



    ***EDIT NOV 12 2025***
    Answering my own question after finding my calipers. .125" x .5" dowel pin (assuming stainless). I've put in a McMaster order for both oversized (99010A115) and slotted spring (97855A550) pins to see if that helps fitment at all. Also noticed a rough spot on the back of the trigger where it meets the nose of the sear. Will smooth that out and see what happens.

    Punched in the oversized dowel pin, took out most of the lateral slop in the trigger. Also spent a little time cleaning up where the trigger and sear contact each other. I think we're off to a good start!
