Emerson cqc7F hidden stop pin?

[Johnnymichigan]

hey guys Jon here. I have a trade going and the other person sent me an email saying my Emerson I sent him doesn't have a stop pin. I remembered that I read the stop pin is hidden in the bearing system as it's a flipper. Does anyone else know about this and help me make this right? If I did indeed send him a knife that was Supposed to have that stop pin I'd be embarrassed with myself. Thank you guys!

I believe the flippers have a hidden stop pin, yes. Here's a BF post showing the liners on a 7 with a hole for that pin (the one on the left; hole is between pivot and corner of liner).

And here are the liners, also new/left and old/right. Note the additional blade-stop-pin hole in the new for the "flipper" models.

Dadpool is correct. Flipper 7's can't use the exposed "standard" pin location because of flipper tab interference. The old hole is still present in the liner, no doubt the cause of the concern. All is as should be I would think.
