Got my P80 compact build almost done here (waiting for a barrel to show up on a good sale), and have a problem.
I have everything assembled easily enough (went much more quickly than my full size a month or so ago), but when I mount the slide I can't remove it.
Slide goes on fine, but then won't come back off. It gets hung up somehow as the firing pin is trying to come forward of the trigger assembly, it seems. I have to remove the slide cover plate, pull the extractor and firing pin out, and then the slide goes right off.
I apparently have something assembled wrong, but no idea what - any ideas? I compare the internals to my fullsize and everything *looks* right, but something obviously isn't.
I can add a pic or two later on...
Thanks in advance!
