That's my thread... but it was not the hammer pin - it was the trigger pin.
Did it look like that ^^^^^ ?

Exactly like that...same look to the break and all.
Too light of a buffer can prevent lock back of the bolt. I know it may seem counter intuitive to you, but if you read the buffer threads and posts on like malfuntions, a heavier buffer solves the issue nicely.
And I believe your magic 8 ball is wrong, RA2Bach. Prior to looking for a change of buffer, a complete detail and cleaning inspection was made to preclude any other issues before screwing with things. With that said, I bet you're right it was a significant causal factor though.

The consensus on my thread was that it was a crappy pin.
Luckily it was very good CS on part of who I purchased the lower from and I had a new pin (multiple) in a few days.

The shop where I used to work had a Colt 635 on the rental wall and that joker used to break quite a few hammer pins. Is that a known issue with 9mm AR's due to the blow-back vs gas operation?
