Beretta M9A1 - extractor pin hole not staked

[samuse]

I snagged a brand-new Beretta M9A1 yesterday, took it to the range today.

All was well until I saw the extractor pin walking out. I dulled a center punch with a file and emory cloth and put a little stake on the hole in the slide.

I know Beretta stakes both sides of the hole with a straight line stake (chisel?). Do ya'll think my little round stake is sufficient?

I was thinking that it'd leave me more area to restake in future, but if there's a reason both sides should be staked I'll hit again.

The round stake looks like it'll hold.

I just bought a brand new M9A1 from Beretta's most recent production run, and I had to go check mine just now- its got stake lines on each side of the extractor pin hole. Looks like that one slipped thru QC; I'd check the gun closely for any other quirks.

Thats strange. I have 9 Berettas (different variants) - All have the pin staked... That one slipped thru it seems

No big deal. It took maybe 5 minutes of time to correct.

I've put a little over 200 rounds through it since I staked it, shows no sign of moving.

My 92A1 was staked and every other 92/96 series pistol I've seen was staked. It's like a Colt AR without a properly staked gas key: stake it and shoot it.
