Great advice on the weak roll pins. Has anybody informed Jack Weigand about this?

Here is a trick that I have used at work for strengthening roll pins if you cannot get them out. On a 0.125" roll pin like this you can usually press a 0.062" pin into the center of the roll pin effectively doubling it's shear strength.

Thanks again to everyone for the advice and ideas. Looking forward to getting to the range and getting sighted in with my newly scoped Redhawk!
