I know I replied to this earlier, but now my post is gone. I guess maybe I just pressed the "preview" button. Anyway,

I had the exact same base pin problem with my Gaucho in .45 Colt. Taurus replaced it but I had the same problem after shooting a few cylinders through it. I found that the Belt Mountain standard pin that's made to fit SAAs and clones would fit, I just had to shorten it by about 3/16" so it doesn't interfere with the transfer bar. That pin seems to be properly hardened as my problem is solved, and it's been a great gun since.
Thank you so much! I wonder if a blued pin on a bright stainless gun (looks like nickel) would look OK? I think I'll try it and find out -- it might actually look *good* that way
