1/2" pin?? John, John, John ...
(Can't you ask them toget you a 2-3" pin at least, if you plan on your normal drilling?)
Being as strong as the Action is, normally, I suspect on the lanes you've been bowling on, it will go thru the skid/hook/roll cycle fairly quickly. It'll have,in general, a little less continuation after hooking and won't have quite as much POTENTIAL backend as a longer pin-CG distance. A light polishing may modify some of that and make it more useful.
