I may have lost the pin for my Keltec. Any suggestions where to get one? I think I prefer to pick one up locally (SF Bay area) but ordering one online isn't a big deal. Hope these things aren't expensive.
Thanks.
Thanks.

This website goes over alot of usefull stuff about the SU-16. It says that:
the takedown pin is easily replaced with a 1/4 inch hitch pin, available at any hardware store for about $2.00. You could carry a spare or just replace it ahead of time. The hitch pin has a ring attached which makes it easy to secure.
I'd try to find a pin that's not quite as long as the one shown, but this really does make for a cheap and easy fix that actually works very well!!
the real ones aren't very expensive from Kel Tec either if you'd rather have that.
hope it helps.
Cheers!sigpic
Most civilization is based on cowardice. It's so easy to civilize by teaching cowardice. You water down the standards which would lead to bravery. You restrain the will. You regulate the appetites. You fence in the horizons. You make a law for every movement. You deny the existence of chaos. You teach even the children to breathe slowly. You tame.

Additional point... you can easily clip a single point sling onto the hitch pin.This website goes over alot of usefull stuff about the SU-16. It says that:

I use an appropriate length clevis pin and a split ring for a single point sling attachment spot.

this was a great idea to post!!!
i did this a long while back... and it is a great mod!!!
i purchased 1 that was a little long and cut it down so it fit flush on the "nonringed" side. in my experience the hitchpins are a little thicker then the factory ones but thats good since it donsent have the groove for the spring to sit in..
there was a a guy who sold some aluminum ones on ebay with the groove and anodized black for like 10 bucks pretty good quality too!I'm the best there is at what I do. But what I do best isn't very nice. --James "Logan" HowlettComment
