Garmil Posted July 24, 2015 Share Posted July 24, 2015 Put a slide stop thumb rest in my limited gun. It drops in fine doesn't feel overly loose or tight but when I close the slide its hanging up right before it fully forward. I can close it the rest of the way with a little added pressure. How can I fix this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scottlep Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Measure the center of the old stop pin vs the new. Some are reduced towards the center (your old one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
troupe Posted July 25, 2015 Share Posted July 25, 2015 Sounds like your new pin is bigger than your old pin. Maybe a .198 compared to a .200 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garmil Posted July 25, 2015 Author Share Posted July 25, 2015 Measure the center of the old stop pin vs the new. Some are reduced towards the center (your old one) This is what it was. Old pin had a slight flat spot on the top of the pin in the center covering about 2/3rds didn't even notice it until I looked for it. New one matches and works well now. Thanks!
