Q:

First wildcat problems

The sidelever linkage pin is pressed in and may fall out:

I understand such approach cuts costs but imagine what happens when you push the pin put for servicing the gun, will it stay in place after you push it back? I thought FX made properly designed guns but it seems they are cutting corners for lower assembly costs now.

I’d put it back in and peen it from both ends that should hold it.

That would make it really hard to remove when you need to take the gun apart. I’d take a screw and make a new pin from that like this:

Just thread the upper part of the lever.

I’d put it back in and peen it from both ends that should hold it.
