Any help would be greatly apprciated

Seems the only unis that are designed right are the Integy's since they use a grub screw to retain the pin
Quick fix for your GPM's is to get some heat shrink wide enough to fit over the joint where the pin is and shrink it down around that area- about 4mm of shrink, just enough to hold your pins in. Probably a good all around safety tip for any cvd.
