THE IMAGE ABOVE IS A PAID ADVERTISEMENT
My krink's trigger pin keeps walking out. I sent it to Jayson at IGF to look at, he said it was a retainer issue, and installed a tapco rataining plate.

I have it back, and the pin still keeps walking out when I pull the trigger a few times.

The plate is inside the groove on the pin, but there is still enough play in it where the pin can pop out of the hole.

Any thoughts?
My drill sergeant had done three tours as combat arms, had a scar down the length of his face, and was no-shit bi-polar. That's how they are supposed to be.

In the very least you probably need new pins.

I remember some where was selling longer axis pins.
Using a longer pin and the plate would keep it from walking out.

I had that problem on a AR also but for those they sell anti walk pins with cap screws on both sides... To bad they don't have those for AK,s... Again you could use E-Clips and install two in each slot ( gets them in there tight) till you get new pins and a new plate...Just saying and don't send me mad posts cuz I recommending clips it's a temp fix.... so you can go on shooting..... but only remember install two in each slot it takes some effort and its tight but they have never backed off or fallen out on my guns....I don't like the wire retainers but on full autos that is the only way to lock the pins since they don't make plates for those... I don't use clips any more since I learned to modify my Akbuilder plates for my left hand safety guns but I used them for years on these two Ak.s and my Galili and never had one fall out....I still keep them in my gun bag just incase..

Thanks for the heads up, just ordered some and a new retainer.
