The LPA rear sight on my Springfield "loaded" 45 has a broken hinge pin. I bought one from Kensight but the diameter was too large. It was .078" my pin is .076. LPA doesn't sell parts, none have another Source?
Thanks / Chet

Buy a drill bit in correct diameter and cut the shank to proper length and your good to go.

Yep, that's precisely a #48. Use two pairs of pliers nose-to-nose to snap the shank, then finish the length on the grinder.
