[QUOTE="druryj, post: 3044492, member: 10465"] There [I]is[/I] a fix, but to do so, effectively does away with the ability to put the pistol on "Safe". This "fix" is done by putting a [U]very stiff spring and an oversized safety plunger[/U] in the gun to the point that the gun [I]will[/I] stay in "Fire". It is [I]very[/I] difficult to move it to "safe" as I have it set up right now. I have a second set of plungers and springs fitted just a little bit larger/stiffer than the ones I took out of it after it fell into "safe" on me while I was shooting it, and this all too familiar problem reared it's head. I need to put this second set up in the gun to make sure it works as it is supposed to work. I have had this same issue with other Walther pistols I've had...like 6 of them now... but some other guys I know with Walthers have not experienced it. (Yet). The PP series was designed to have a manual safety. I do not like a manual safety on a DA/SA pistol, so I am personally happy with my stiff spring and big plunger "fix" . [/QUOTE]
