I think the case can easily be made that being able to push bridge pins in by hand is a good thing. First fill the hole up with your favorite epoxy or CA solution... slowly push in the pin, wipe off excess... and you have as tight an all around fit as is possible to get. Quite quickly as well. Cheers RicB If you can push in a bridge pin with your hand, it would not only be loose(r), but too loose, IMO. Thanks for the clarification, Alan Eder
