grip safety problem.

[ichimaru gin]

My hi capa grip safety wont work. when the safety is on, with a little force, I can still pull the trigger. Anyone knows why this could happen?

Does the grip safety depress its self when you pull the trigger?

If so, the left finger of the leaf spring is probably squished down too much.

Take out the leaf/finger spring...the left one (as it's oriented in the pistol, muzzle facing away from you) is bent back towards the grip safety and has a round bend on the end.

Gently...without messing up the others...bend that back a bit more. It should hold the safety out and keep it from slipping.

And if you bend the sear leaf (the middle one i think) it will do 3-7 round bursts . But i highly wouldn't recommend it
Anyways sorry for my pointsless info.

the sear/disconnector area may not be working properly. Make sure that area is lubed well. That + things that were mentioned before.

thanks guys, I followed sir daiviet's advice and it works wonders now. the safety is back on woohoo. after several use, will the left side of the leaf spring unbent itself?

[Daiviet]

pardon me? i didn't post anything lol. If you've bent it back enough it'll probably be fine for a long while, won't be another few years until you have to do that again, unless you're gripping your pistol 24/7

Oops, wrong person, lol, I meant thanks sir tyson. I guess there are too many gun gurus here and sometimes I mixed up someone with someone else. anyway thanks all.
