hopefully somebody has specs for you. All I got is a part number . Probably discontinued. Gotta be a machine shop somewhere that knows the specs from some ol timey book like they used in the old days.

Thank you for the part number, I did find it earlier and it is discontinued. I only found one shop online that sells the bolt, spring, and pin. It would be faster for me to turn one out on my lathe if I just knew the material and spec. I’ll give some of my old machine shops a call, thank ya sir!

Yeh I'm an ***, wife calls me that all the time. I gave you a specific "term" to google, most people just don't term it properly when searching. Like your title, all you'll get with that term is AR15 parts results. You can't buy just a pin, package deal. If you have a local jeep dealer thats been around for along time they might have one on a shelf. These online dealer search engines of parts don't always jive with a local dealer.
