incognitomode Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 So I forgot to lower the sear spring leg after changing hammer springs. This caused the slide to get stuck when I cycled it. I was able to push the slide back into battery and then disassemble to lower the sear spring leg. That said, the edge is slightly bent. It still lowered with tension though, so I am not sure if it needs replacing. Trigger works in DA/SA and resets. Would love to get the opinions of our seasoned gunsmiths if I should be worried and possibly preemptively change the sear spring. Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zombywoof Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 I've done it a number of times. Mine were always fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did not do such a thing but I often had to bend this spring. And if it does not break immediately then everything is fine.

Scotty_JR Posted July 5, 2022 Share Posted July 5, 2022 Must be a right of passage. New Tanfo owner here as well. Did that almost right off the bat. Slide never got stuck but racked a bunch. Everything is good to go for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
