Default Hinge Pin

Why are some hinge pins slotted on the left side and than like mine there is no slot?

Gary,Early hinge pins were made one piece. Later guns had a two piece hinge pin hence the slotted screw. Properly installed the screw end is on the left side with the muzzle pointed in the shooting position.

Later on, the non-slotted pin re-appeared on the Trojan.
