Installing the Horanday Lock & Load AP

[sledgemeister]

I just got off the phone to Hornady, spoke to a Greg and then to Laurie and they are sending me a new one lickiy split.
Greg said they just glue the pins in with superglue Like wtf SUPERGLUE (crazy glue in US speak I think). Thinking I may need to knock up a better type with the broken one I have, might drill it through and tape a thread into it and knock up a replacement pin.
In the mean time I guess I can load .357 tomorrow night LOL
Least the service people there was very nice.

Super glue is fine for holding pins in place. When I was running a spotwelder we often made up our fixtures with it. However, while it will stand up to pressure, it will not take shear forces or shocks, such as the whack you said you gave it.
