I have a live registered 1944 gun, but it has the two-piece split pin and cylinder type take-down or hinge pin assembly. I would like to find an early grooved
pin and retaining pin/spring for the gun to make it more original. Does anyone know of a source for this kind of pin assembly?

Should be simple to make. I can check with my machinist and see how much he would charge me to make one.

I have a metal lathe, so I could make the "grooved pin" (I think), but I don't have either a dimensioned drawing or a good photo to see exactly
what it looks like. The retaining sping might be much harder and I have no idea what it looks like either. Does anyone have dimensions, drawing or a decent
photo of either of these parts?

OAL=40mm (1.6") My pin is 1.560" Height= 10.5mm (.42") My pin circumference is .470" Half way to center of the middle of the groove= 20mm (.80") Mine is .755" 20mm to nearest edge of groove. Mine.714" 45° angle at tip of ends. Possible variance between your PPSh and mine. I have to tap my pin in with a small mallet. I took a flat spring, cut it and bent it to fit inside the hole in the base of the lower receiver. I might have another piece in my garage. Will look for it. If you have a fax available, e-mail me: shpagin@ppsh41.com I can fax you picture from Russian manual with metric dimensions.

Does anyone have a picture of the "flat spring" that fits into the hold in the bottom of an early ppsh-41 and retains the grooved one-piece take-down
pin? I can make the pin (thanks to the description from shpagin) but I can't visualize what the "flat spring" looks like so that I can fabricate
one.
