[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3020602, member: 10465"] So I was shooting 95 grain FM, which is what it is supposed to shoot, and having a great time, when the safety catch/safety drum just broke right in two. While I was shooting. Yep. The left hand side, the actual safety lever itself and about half the drum, just fell out, and the other half is stuck inside the slide, held firmly in place by spring tension. I can't relieve the spring in order to be able to pull the busted piece out! I guess I'm going to have to try to get the extractor out by pulling/twisting the hook in order to take pressure off that spring, which does double duty to hold the extractor and the safety drum in either FIRE or SAFE. I'll order a new safety catch/drum in the morning and try to figure this out without screwing up my pistol's pristine finish. Dang. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk [/QUOTE]
