CZ P10 Assembly question

[nadim]

Disassembled, cleaned and reassembled my CZ P10.
When I was done I was left with a tiny pin and couldn’t figure out where it comes from.
Went to the range and after I pulled a shot, the next bullet didn’t reload automatically in the chamber..
Any assistance would be appreciated..

How far did you take it down? A pic of the pin would help.

Check this thread, but if you don't know your pistol yet,  Earl Keese got the point.

Yes, I did follow the instructions on YouTube and did a thorough disassemble.
Thank you Earl. I’m trying to figure out how to post a picture on my iPad

Nadim,
try simple test.
Load magazine with dummy rounds, load and rack slide several time until locks back.
If all rounds get out from magazine and chamber, we at least know it's action, not magazine problem.

Thank you Jurek. Will try it right away.

Ok, no problem with loading and racking. Works fine.

[jurek]

So the other tests have to be done with life ammo at the range.
1. Load magazine with 3 - 4 rounds, load and rack slide several time until locks back (the same as you did with dummies)
2. Load single round to magazine, load, take a shot.  Slide should lock back.
3. Load two rounds and take a shot, if possible take another. Let us know what happens.

Do these steps with all magazines you have with the gun.

Definitely we need to see the pin you found after reassemble.

Yesterday I was at the range. After the first shot, it wasn’t reloading the next bullet automatically.
Anyway, I will try again. 
The pin is like a dowel pin, super tiny, like 5-6 times smaller than the front coiled pin, and 4-5 times thinner. (Sorry the forum doesn’t allow for posting pictures)

Did you do basic field strip? In that case there is no pins that you could find loose.

Are you sure that came off your gun?  Your pic shows a slotted pin.  All the pins in the P-10C that I know of are either solid, coiled, or that vibration resistant slotted pin (the one that looks like it has teeth) for the backstrap.

After I reassembled the GUN, that tiny pin was left in the box. I reviewed the you tube instructions  3 times, I studied and reviewed the diagram but couldn’t find that piece. What puzzles me is when I was testing it on the range, something was wrong. I’m thinking now I could have reassembled one piece the wrong way...will review one more time. The mystery is still that tiny piece...where did it come from?

Many thanks for your feedback much appreciated. Will update you guys next week end..

I’ve never seen that pin in my p10 before

[jurek]

This one IS NOT from P-10.
Looks like Firing Pin Retaining Pin from hammer fired pistol.

Anyway:
1. I don't think your shooting problems are related to this pin
2. try to find out how come this pin was found in P10 box
