    No splines, both are smooth and no movement even with the correct punch...

    "No splines, both are smooth and no movement even with the correct punch..."... the 'splines are just to 'lock' the pins in place, you may not be able to see them untill the pins are removed. the pins themselves are very tight and need a good 'whack'to stert then moving.
