A masonry pin assembly and method of use is provided for aligning and setting masonry materials used in construction. A masonry pin assembly is provided having a substantially cylindrical cartridge, a spring residing within the cartridge and reacting against the cartridge, a pin slidably disposed within the cartridge such that when the spring is fully compressed the outer end of the pin is still within the cartridge and a trigger for releasing the pin from the cartridge, thereby aligning a masonry stone with adjacent stones.
