Rolling block pin slop

[antiqueguy]

I just acquired a husqvarna rolling block shotgun. The breech block pin is a little sloppy and it needs one of the retaining screws replaced. Anyone know where to get replacements would shimming this temporarily allow me to shoot it.

Probably sloppy due to a hot load

Most likely it has a 20ga 2 3/4 inch chamber. I’m only going to feed it black powder or subs.

Have you measured the diameter of the pin along it's length? If I am not mistaken, those pins are hardened. Might be the holes in the receiver are enlarged, which would likely mean reaming and installing an over sized pin.

Haven’t had much of a chance yet just pulled it out of the box a little while ago. I did swap the pins around and it’s slightly better but still not great. Holes are definitely egged out unfortunately my lathe ain’t working right now(got screwed over on a new made spindle) so can’t exactly make pins.
