[QUOTE="RockHopper, post: 3685128, member: 49099"] Welcome to OKS. I'm new here myself, and it seems to be a great place so far! In my experience, nothing smooths out operation on a new pistol like taking it out and shooting the absolute crap out of it. I'm not a gunsmith or armorer, but I've put a few together, and been privy to dozens of builds. The most common problem with p-80's is pin misalignment....and the most common mistake, drilling both sides of the pin holes from a single side of the frame. But no matter why, the P-80 jig isn't exactly a precision fit device, even if used only once. If your snap caps will fully seat in the chamber, even if you've gotta give it a smack, than it'll eventually run smooth. You may wear out an extractor prematurely, but that's no big deal. If you wanted to boost the spring power, you could try an aftermarket spring such as wolf . I use a Glock shop SS set-up that I've been really happy with on my pf940c, which has been my edc for about 2 years now. Looks good and gives a little extra oomph for when I'm running steel cased junk at the range. [/QUOTE]
