After a bit more than four years and 15½K rounds, last Saturday the MH Pin sheared in half on my Custom Classic. It was an original Kimber part.

Local smith who had a spare that afternoon siad he had never seen this happen before. Has anyone seen this before?

Calthrop, I think it was because it looked liked "Pot Metal" inside.

I think I will replace a few more MIM parts.
