PCR slide moves while in battery
« on: October 05, 2019, 11:14:16 AM »
Hello,
Been a long while since coming here.  Glad you are still "out here" for us.

My 9mm PCR's slide can be "slid" back and forth about a 1/16 of an inch while in battery, with or without a round chambered.  I don't remember it doing this before and EVERYONE tells me it isn't right.  I've shot "millions" of rounds through this gun in IDPA.  What could be cause this sliding back and forth issue?  I have a 14 lb stock spring and a 17 lb Wolf spring that goes with the barrel.

Thank you!

What is the actual round count in reality? Does it move sloppily or is there spring tension/resistance? My PCR with about 14,000 rnds can be moved slightly as well. Shoots great and 100% reliable so I'm not concerned.

I have had the gun for 11 years.  I shoot about 5k to 6k a year in IDPA and practice for IDPA.  I don't remember it sliding at all, but, that could be just me.  I don't see anyone else's slide do that.  It has been the sweetest gun I have ever shot in competition and I carry it also every day.  Just seems like it shouldn't be able to slide it when the hammer is ready to fire.

Thank you for your time and reply.
