I've never had any trouble with pin fitment of my M1910, but have heard of this issue before.

Mine has been from Ceylon (where Grand dad bought it ca. 1930-31) to Singapore (ca. 1934-40), then Southern California, the Channel Islands (briefly in 1950s), back to So. Cal (sat 'taken down' in fitted case for three decades), to Santa Cruz (with me), Northern Arizona (where I reloaded for and used it), now the foothills of the Sierra Nevada.

I have read advice from others to store it assembled to avoid the pin alignment issue, but IIRC that was from people who live in very humid climates. I store it assembled in a silicon impregnated soft sleeve which, in turn, is in a canvas Boyt case.

Maybe it's a good thing I didn't have it in Florida.
