Yes they are.

Many years ago, Daryl shipped his guns with pinned shafts because that was all that was available to him in Hawaii, and I still have a couple in my boat as spares. I never had a problem while I used them, but I recall a friend who got a Mahi gun with a pinned shaft. He was not exactly a stud, so he put all three bands on the first pin, and it broke off. Then he put all three on the second pin, and it broke off too. I don't think he tried the third pin.
