PM9 and accurate caliper request!

[Bawanna]

He'll have to confirm but didn't Jocko actually recess his pin so it isn't even flush?

I'm with Muggsy, I don't see whey you couldn't make it near flush. I'd leave just enough to be able to push with a screwdriver handle or something for disassembly. I assume Jocko has to use a punch or something.

Wow, be careful, Colonel. Those nipples are supposed to protrude other side and facilitate lock-up and that gun does not fall apart.

But what do I know? I'm a relative newbie compared to y'all!

Ok, here's some comparison:

PM9 - protrusion past frame about .063
PM9 - protrusion past slide about .048

PM45 - protrusion past frame about .040
PM45 - protrusion past slide about .015

PM9 - WOA about 1.086
PM45 - WOA about 1.166

PM9 - Frame width at pin hole .890
PM45 - Frame width at pin hole .966

Dunno exactly what to make of those numbers.

I was wondering... if they got the wrong pin on the PM9's slide stop, but since others are longer than mine.... probably not.

Compared slide stop springs PM9 vs PM45... the PM45 is much looser, yet works perfectly.

I guess I'll just shorten the pin a little more and be done with it.

Can't see anything wrong with grinding it down flush with the right side. Only time you would need it was to remove it and folks have been removing it from Keltecs for a while and that one doesn't even reach the other side. Question now is how flat can we grind down the lever on the left side?

[Bawanna]

I ground the heck out of my PM45 lever, Wynn accused me of taking away it's manhood. I'll have to find a picture.

CJB, maybe we should remove the offending finger rather than butcher the pin any further.

Oh that's probably a stupid idea, what with the mess and all.

^^^^^ Indeed, that was an amusing post!

Well Colonel, I might be half obliged to agree if it was one finger, but its probably more like the three bigguns on one hand....dunno but if that might cramp my er... private moments, ya know?

^^^ seems we've graduated from the Kahrtalk forum to the Penthouse forum. Just sayin'.

[Bawanna]

That's them apartments on the very tip top in New York City right.

When your richer than Davy Crocket you live in the Penthouse?

Since I find it much faster and easier to chamber a round using the slide stop I seldom rack the slide thus negating the problem. You must be one ham handed S.O.B., CJB.
