Anyone ever had a problem trigger guard roller pin? I had a OOPS!!! Mother Fucken Son-A-Bitch!!!! ECT.... Sorry about my french
Can a guy weld a lower back together????[Rant1][Rant1][Rant1][Rant1][Rant1][Rant1][Rant1][Rant1]
What did I do wrong? Tap Tap Tap...Snap!
Get another lower. Funny because this is the answer that frustrated me the most because I did it to one of my Colts and it's not exactly a lower that turns up for sale very often. I had a block of wood for support on the dog ear and whil tapping I didn't realize it worked it's way out and well...

I've looked and looked for a fix, only worthwhile solutions I found is to
A. deal with it
B. glue the piece back on and blend as best you can
C. buy the Stark grip (uglier than a mutha IMO)
D. buy a new lower
I went with A. plus the full MIAD kit.

Stark Pistol Grip maybe your only answer
Graves that is exactly what mine looks like, I put new pin in and pressed it and it's broke but together. Just the crack line.
Still it's not the same... Tear...Tear
Henpecked, I might look into that, but I'll probably try and epoxy or JB weld it...lol
What kind of lower was it?

WOW Quib thanks for the link-whole bunch of good info there-well done [Beer]
i have had very good results using JB weld 2 part epoxy. the trick it to be patient enough allowing the epoxy time to cure. The best way i have found for trigger guard pin install is
1) taper one side of the roll pin very slightly in grinder, using a file OR WECSOG it with a dremel
2) place pin in freezer after applying a slight film of oil.
3) i use a wood shim as the backer on bottom (Opposite) side of lower where pin is being inserted.
4) remove pin from freezer and install tapered end first. Using a hemostat ro hold the pin allows you to ensure pin is not going in on an angle
5) if tab breaks see opening paragraph
