My SP101 hammer pin tends to back out a bit when shooting or dry firing. The grips prevent it from getting to far but it stands a bit proud on the right side of the frame. I would like for it to fit a bit tighter. Any home gunsmith suggestions?

I would be temped to put a tiny drop of c/a (super glue) under the flat of the pin to keep it flush. An easy tap from the other side would break it loose when needed.

Throw a drop of epoxy on the underside of the grip where the hammer pin tab sets. Effectively create a pressure pad against the tab.
