Detlef Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 my LDA 18-9 came with an unworkable grip safety. My high grip simply doesn't disengage it. Now, I hate just completely deactivating it (I am planning on using it as carry gun, too, plus some competitions don't let you deactivate safeties), and was planning to *sensitize* it the way you do it on a regular 1911 (file off a bit from the top of the little protrusion that blocks the trigger). Big surprise: The LDA grip safety works not at all like a regular 1911 one! There's a plethora of little parts and springs that all look very fragile, and I put it back in horror. How do you *sensitize* (i.e. not deactivate completely) an LDA grip safety? --detlef Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 I replaced the MSH on mine. The little ears were over sized so the GS didn't work at all. I filed the ears down to get it working. I guess that would be the ticket. Mine doesn't take a whole lot of forward movement to deactivate it now. I don't remember which MSH manufacturer I used. Ordered it through Brownells. It is an Arched SS. Might have been Masden? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Detlef Posted July 19, 2002 Author Share Posted July 19, 2002 ears? huh? --D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chriss Grube Posted July 19, 2002 Share Posted July 19, 2002 For lack of a better term yep, ears maybe nubs, tabs, protrusions. Beats the heck out of me what they are called. Probably something technical sounding like MSH grip safety engagement surfaces! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
