Please keep us informed here in the cz forum about the availability of CGW Part in Europe.
We will. We already have a very experienced person (that has ironically visited Germany this year) that is going to handle the European distribution.
Tok36 is correct with his dimensions on the pin.
One thing to watch is the base material, we originally used 1214L, which was not the best choice (many years ago), then we went to 0-1 tool steel that was much, much, better (discontinued the use of 0-1 about 3 years ago).
However, we did considerable research and testing and found the absolute best material is S-7, which has proven to be virtually indestructible. S-7 is simply amazing, but is tougher to work with.
Keep in mind the correct heat treat is critical, even with S-7.
