Not surprised when FX uses such a light hammer and a heavy spring

Who did the tool path on the machined part? Looks like something I'd do as a hobbyist.

It also appears that the hole is out of round but that could be the picture. If you make the pin larger, will that have an effect on the cocking level due to it being thinner?

Good luck on the repair.

Was not the best picture

it is made with a pro milling machine.

I had to tig more material on the arm.

And works perfect

And if i break it again then it is me

I wasn't talking about where you clearanced it. It was more to the effect of both sides that have a coating on them. I have a Mini CNC mill in my garage and self taught CAD and CAM and it looks like my work.

It looked like that from the factory

I have only been working there where the shining parts are

Ask you local FX Rep, they have several options

Man oh man, how are you breaking the pin in the first place? The only pins I’ve had to replace or fix on others guns are ones that came bent, and that’s typically from accidental firing with the cocking handle back. Once that pin gets bent, it’s only a matter of time till it breaks. Also, the breakage typically gets sped up because now with a bent pin the trigger sear won’t engage, so what does one do short of using a come along? Yes, they just yank back as hard as they can.

Or it’s just yanking that handle hard and too far back, maybe to try and get a mag in the mag slot but the pellet probe was in the way due to it being out of adjustment?

Please, clue me in on how they are breaking so I can add it to my list of faults.

I do applaud your ingenuity in making it beefier, though
