Front Sight Pin Size

[Boulder350]

I have a number of Model of 91 barrels I'm trying to assemble. Have most of the parts to complete the barrels except for the front sight pins. Does anyone know if the sight pins from the 32 top breaks are the same size?

Thanks

I'm going about it pretty much assbackwards, but maybe this'll help get you close (and I don't know about the .32 size). I've removed/replaced a dozen or so SS sight pins in the course of proper baths (but without paying attention); and the punch size is either the .040" or .050"----best guess is the .040".

It just occurred to me Terrry Wagner can very likely tell you the correct size without looking-------<[email protected]>.

And Jim Barton very likely has some pins---<[email protected]>

I don't know if they are the same size, but you can make your own pins from the shanks on drill bits. You can probably find some inexpensive sets at garage sales.
