lizart1048 Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Hello everybody, I just recently picked up a polymer witness. Upon further inspection I noticed vertical play in the slide to frame fit. There is no play in the side to side. Is this common or should I get E.A.A. to repair it? It just seems odd. 1911's do it but i dont believe witnesses are supossed to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nealio Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 The poly guns have a looser fitting slide. How much play are we talking? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lizart1048 Posted January 25, 2013 Author Share Posted January 25, 2013 I would guesstimate about 1mm. To me it would make sense to prevent jams and allow for heat expansion which could cause the slide to bind. I may have to order the front block and change it out my self just to see. After reading about the poor customer service of EAA this iawhat i may do. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
photog Posted February 13, 2013 Share Posted February 13, 2013 1mm is quite a bit. If it was that much I would be surprised. EAA is fine if you call them. Call them before you start "fixing" it on your own. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
