There is one way to tighten the cocking pin but it involves drilling a hole in the hammer and then tapping it for a set screw. (have a machinest do it for you)
But aside from that the cocking pin is going to be a little loose because it's going to be loose in the hammer

A little different but the same basic steps can be used.

Do I need to use 600? I got plenty 320, but no 600.

320 is a little rough. I would go with some finer grade stuff.

Also if you can't get any 600 grit, Steel wool works nicely but takes longer to get a good finish (even a Brillo pad will work)

This was excellent. I was questioning the two piece cast design of the Tippmann. They SHOULD have been polished like that from the factory. I am going to try a 1/2" - 1 1/2" Cylinder hone, it should make the marker more efficient and let the O-rings live longer.
