I bought an aftermarket (Blue Mountain) SAA base pin for my stainless Taurus Gaucho because the one from the factory wasn't heat treated properly (causing a variety of problems.) The new one is about 1/8" too long because of the transfer bar, but other than that it fits perfectly. I can mark it with a file, barely.
I have a tile saw with a wet diamond blade. Will that work to rough cut it to size; then I can finish up with silicon carbide paper or bench stones? Or would I be better off using a metal cutoff wheel? I'm concerned about heat buildup tempering or depassifying the steel is why I am considering the wet diamond saw. Maybe it doesn't matter at that end of the pin...
Thanks.
