Quick Release Pin .625x2.1 inches, but the pins that come are a bit different...i dunno...so you try that dimension and get back to me.

I rarely deal with turrets, mostly because all our gun trucks have GPKs on them ((gunners protection kits)) and have all new components.

Kevin,

The pin that I have that came from this type of mount as shown in my picture is 5.5" of gripping (base of handle to locking balls). Diameter is 0.5" exactly. This should work unless someone drilled out your station and riser. This pin is new surplus with lanyard. Very good condition. $75 plus ups.

Regards,
