Default Alignment Pin for 3 bolt cam?

Does anybody know where I can locate one? Without wrestling it out of the stock cam.

If you're referring the pin in the stock cam there really not, its not at all recommended as its press fit. Which is why I want to find one for a cam swap. Comp doesn't send a new one with cam purchase anymore I guess.

Really, after researching as to why this cam didn't come with one, I ran across several with the same problem, no pin. The only info I found was the ole vice grip and vice method to remove pin from stock cam. Which is dumb IMO.

I'd call whoever made the cam and get a pin.
