Jerry: I work at a Baldwin dealership, and also have come across many which have the same occasional loose pins. Although, as you mentioned, they are tunable, it makes one wonder why they aren't all the same. Why the pitch won't come down when you turn the pin, you may be right about the pressure bar, although I have never experienced this problem on the Hamiltons (or any other new Baldwin).
