OK. But wouldn't it be easier to replace the pin?
It sounds like more work for a repair that will not be as well done.
And how much money are you going to save?
I'm not going to skimp just to save $500 - especially not on a real nice double.

No, replacing the pin is not as easy as it sounds, there's alot more involved than just popping the old pin out and pushing a new one in. Fitting, finishing, engraving, etc. And have you ever seen any of the work done by Mr. Eversull? I doubt you could even tell that there was any work done at all. His work is as good as it gets.
The others who posted earlier made a good point...read carefully.....most of the time that a double is loose, its nothing to do with the pin, rather the locking bolt or the hook.
