    ROA Axis Pin

    https://drive.google.com/file/d/1QyU...ew?usp=sharing

    Just received my Yabe purchase! Is it anyone on here selling these? Anyway certainly looks good. I suppose these pins will always be inherently weak at the locking screw notch and time will tell but I'm pleased so far.

    I bought mine about a year back - all-over polished, they look v. spiffy. They are only weak if, like me you lend the revolver to somebody who takes it to pieces and reassembles it without turning the locking screw. Then tries to ram a ball - the pin backs out and bends under the pressure.

    I tried to get a local company in St. Ives to make a some a few years back. Sure they would - I had to buy at least ten and they worked out at about £80 each... I didn't go any further with it.

    Yes - been there and done that. My fault entirely. Those nice folk in Fulton's straightened it out for me on the spot. I was a little worried about it being weakened but it has survived the past 20 odd years of use.

    Chaps,

    I'm sure I've done it many times before but I can't seem to remember how to embed photos in posts on here. I can do links fine but not embed!

    Any help much appreciated!

    Steve

    I believe that apart from sales you cannot embed pix - this is to save storage on the server. Just put up a link.

    "Yabe"? Please tell us more! My pin is OK, but it would be handy to know the source of spares!

    I think if I type yabE.co.uk the correct way round it gets redacted!

    As it has from the URL above......

    E-bay is blocked on here to stop people linking to their items for sale on e-bay if I remember right .

    From the forum rules for sales .

    2. NO AUCTIONS:

    YOU MUST STATE A PRICE, NO OFFERS!!!
    NO LINKS TO ONLINE AUCTIONS.
    ZERO TOLERANCE!


    Despite that rule people still linked to their ads on E-bay so it was blocked.
