Dog pin issue noted as corrected by Penn in 2016 per our Penn Tech Rep where the bridge dog pins had to be repeened into the plates with the later US metal releases.
Early 113HN Baja special reels:
The 3-113HN had smaller dog pin ends where they were held into the bridge plate.
This would cause the pins to not hold. It did not occur in every bridge but often enough to make Penn aware of the problem and correct it.
LATER RELEASE CHANGE:
When the US Metal Senators released US113, US113W US113N in 2014
Penn now being aware of the problem after that release, corrected this issue during 2016 on the 3-113HN bridges by peening them more firmly into place creating slightly wider pin ends to hold better.
There is some variation in the bridge dog pin ends from bridge to bridge, but the few older ones we had have been set aside to sell last and are not mixed with the regular inventory.
Good dog pin ends peened size ranges from 3.94 to 4.40 mm

Since you can't walk into Penn reels in Philly anymore, this is the next best thing. Thanks for your services!!!!! Even parts for vintage reels. Delivery is super quick as well.
10/23/2024 Easy to order parts and they shipped fast. Great seller! Hope to do business with them again! If you do not find what you are looking for do a Google search with Mystic Reel Parts in the search with your model. I have a Penn 285 and 9 and it took me to the exact page for both. Also have the reel schematics.

I luckily found MysticParts via a Google search. Their website is comprehensive and I was at a loss on what I needed. Fortunately the “contact us” option was user friendly. To my delight I got a personalized and VERY helpful response right away. She asked questions to fully understand my needs and then followed up with links to the right parts. We continued our email exchange regarding my second reel issue and, again, she was extremely knowledgeable and gave me both practical as well as professional solutions.
If you need reel parts and assistance with repair and maintenance, do not hesitate to work with them.
