    You can get a roll pin(tension pin) from Lowes. I had a gen 3 that also had a solid metal one. The factory one is plastic so cramming toolpicks would work. Lol. There used to be lots of talk about this pin. Some guns will go to fire thousands of rounds without it and some have experienced issues. All useless information for you to read.

    One thing to check is do you have the holder for the backstraps? It may have a pin on it.

    Do you use backstraps? ...they use a longer pin. I have both lengths so if you want to PM me your address I'll send you one.
