Good ideas guys. I cut the tip off of a hard-chromed screwdriver and the shaft fills the holes perfectly. Got some Kroil soaking in right now. If that doesn't do the trick then I'll hit it with the heat gun tomorrow.

Can't wait to get it to the Range. I found some 10-round metal clips for it at Cheaper-Than-Dirt. I'm going to polish the sear/trigger contact points before I take it out and see if I can get a little crisper break.
