decent aluminum push pins?

I need 5/8" point and something that won't fall apart when it's used .

MN. Trap line products.

I looked at those but they say they are Chinesium

For the right price I could turn u some on the lathe

I know, I know, I'm not much help..... but Im pretty sure Paul keeps me around for my sarcasm more than my knowledge.

Man that might be worth it !! Save an lot of $$ on Band-Aids.

Had the same experience with crap push pins. Interested

I have a bunch I bought from Cumberland's, and a bunch from F&T. Nothing special about them but they've held up pretty well.

The old stock, made in USA, Moore push pins is what you need. Good luck finding them though. I bought eight hundred last year from a trapping supply outfit that went out of business soon after I bought them. I wish I would have bought all of his inventory.

The newer, made overseas aluminum push pins aren't even a full 5/8" even though that's how they're sold.

Here's a thread I made looking for the same thing last January.

Aluminum Head Push Pins

You can buy old stock Moore Push Pins on eBay.

looks like Murray's lures has some NOS. Says they won't have anymore once they sell out.

Thanks guys !!!

I didn't see any Moore 5-100 Aluminum Head 5/8" Push Pins in that link Keith. Those are the ones you want.

The last time I bought Moore pins were at a convention so stocked up. They were 5/8. The last 1/2 inch we bought from a retired mink rancher years ago. Moores are a good pin in my opinion. I don't have many cheap pins left. They get weeded out every season while using them.

Art supply places sell the good ones.
