    Dimples are the minimum. IMO, for duty or combat, it should be PINNED.

    Completely agree, that is why i said if it is not a duty or combat weapon for the OP it is not critical. No exceptions for combat or duty IMO.

    I think I will just dimple the front hole like one poster mentioned then use high strength/temp Loctite, that should be reliable enough for combat use and wouldn't hurt anything if I ever wanted to revert back to a fsp i assume?

    Get the jig if you want it done right.

    Actually it is. Please don't spread trash information here. There are plenty of other Bubba Gun Sites.
