plumbshotsam 6 Posted September 7, 2022 I could use a little help with this handgun. In order to remove the top slide the pin on top must be pressed to retain the slide spring, I believe. My problem is that the mechanism attached to the pin is broken or disconnected UNDER the slide and I can't figure out how to remove the slide. (the pin just sits there and jiggles, seems like nothing is connected to it) Is anyone aware of a DIY fix, or is this an issue for a pro gunsmith? Thanks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

plumbshotsam 6 Posted September 8, 2022 Thanks for the link but the video doesn't cover my situation where the "pin" is disconnected or broken under the slide. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
