So you can remove the pin and take out the mainspring housing without taking the grips off. 0 -
so how often does that pin get removed or adjusted?? 0 -
The pistol needs no tools to take it apart. Roll around in a slimy trench of take cover in a shell or bomb crater full of muck and you will be thankful to have easy access to the innards. 0 -
to do a full detail strip and clean once a year for me,
I would think the grips were spec'd that way for ease of removal of the mainspring housing under field conditions, where you might save time, and also have one less thing to lose, the grip screws.
I think 95 % of all owners of a 1911 style pistol have never removed the pin and mainspring housing.0 -
Well tank78Z I am surely one of those 5% that has [:D] one needs to remove the main spring housing to then be able to remove the 3 leaf spring this in turn alllow you to use the three leaf spring to turn the small screw in the Magazine release To remove the magazine release to then be able to remove the trigger. As Charlie 007 stated many military small arms are purpose built to need no tools or very few tools to take apart to clean [^]
