[Elecraft] APP roll pins

I've purchased an APP pack or two that instead of having real roll pins (as in a 
flat piece of metal rolled over on itself, having a bit of spring tension in the 
process), just a piece of tiny metal tubing.  While these slipped in place, they 
also tended to slip out of place.

I'm guessing that this is what many dissatisfied APP users have purchased, 
instead of getting a pack with real roll pins.
