    Trigger pin

    Shot the 3AT yesterday. It has about 350 rnds thru it. After 1 mag the gun would not fire...hammer went back but would not release to strike. Found the trigger pin out just a little. Poured loktite into the area and tapped it back with a puch...set it pretty hard.
    Only my second problem...the first was the take down pin backing out while shooting. The YZ mod fixed that.

    WATCH those trigger pins fellas! I'd inspect often. It could be important for those of you who carry these little pistols for protection.

    Yep, that's the single most common problem.
    I'd advise using Loc-Tite on the pin first thing after you get it, rather than even giving it a chance to back out.

    Would locktight work, if not between the materials? Would super glue, gorrilla glue or something else be a better choice to "seal" the pin in to keep it from moving...

    Get where I'm coming from?

    Also, as a reference, does this look right? About 1/8" of the side of pin is visible.

    Yep, that looks just fine.
    I'd imagine any sort of glue that reliably adheres to the polymer will work, including the super glues (cyanoacrylate).
    I've just got so much Loc-Tite lying around, I've got to use it on something! 8)

    Trigger Pin

    The trigger pin in my P3AT is protruding 1/32" out the side, There's 12 shots thru it, I did not notice if it came from the factory like that or it took 12 shots to move the pin. But anyway I will correct the problem.
