FCG pin size
10/26/2011 1:01:13 AM
Called Colt today to find out pin size on my 6920 told it was .154
The problem is I bought this in 12/04 serial number LEO-019xxx.
I thought colt did not change from .170 to .154 till 08.
Does anybody know for sure when they switched or should I double check
with colt?

Not to start trouble, but... can't you measure your pins? Slightly push out the trigger pin and check it with calipers?

If you bought it in '04, it's .170 pins.
ETA: They switched to .154 FCG pins in the first part of 2009.

Did you give them the serial number and they looked it up? I don't think they keep record of pin sizes, so the CS person would need to know the date cutoff on .170 FCG pins.

I gave them the serial number.
Called them again talked to Rob told me he could not help to buy a caliber to check size.
Called again talked to Heather said the cutoff was 08 so it is a large pin.
Also asked about my 6520 very first person said large pin last person said small pin.
I am just going to buy a digital caliper.

You can also use your firing pin if you take the hammer out. Put the firing pin through the hole. If it's snug, you have .154 pins. If it's loose (can shake it around), they you have .170 pins.
Or you can take a picture and post it here and I can tell you just by looking at it.
