Random slide lock back
« on: July 18, 2019, 09:06:24 AM »
My P-10F will lock back at random times, what do I need to do to fix it?

Thanks
Jim

My first guess would be to move your thumb.

You're either riding it with your thumb or the trigger bar is touching the slide stop.

If it popped out once it can pop out again.  My first P10c did that a few times.  My 2nd P10 had more spring tension, so I bent the 1st spring just a few degrees down and away from the ejection port side.

This.

Happened to me also but only when the pistol was warm/hot. When the pistol was cold there appeared to be enough spring tension. Heated it up with a hair dryer and ever so slightly touched the spring and it popped off the slide stop. Fixed with a very slight outward bend to the spring.
