I drilled holes and put tooth picks in the place of the pins in two of my "junk" HISS tanks. I broke the ends off the picks and used the middle part of it.

I should clarify, this is if the HISS turret pins are gone. Trigue had a good tip about the drilling....

ah yeah I should of mentioned that too, the pins on my junk HISS's was completely gone. I gave up on finding any with pins still intact. I figured since they was already broken, it didn't matter if I fixed them.

i am all about restoring these old toys. probably half my vehicles i took all the way down, cleaned, reassembled and redecaled because they were in tuff shape when i got em.. now they are showpieces. some parts like those HISS guns are tricky though
