Hi guys

So long story short...bought the RUGER LC380 gun last night, I get home and play around with it with a set of snap caps - what do you know...one of the snap caps are bad and jam the gun big time.

In my frustration I popped out the pin near the back of the gun. It seems to be connected to a spring and for the life od me cannot get it back in.

Any help on how to fix this?

Manual did not cover it, but I got it. Just needed an extra pair of hands. It was impossible to hold the light, lever up the spring, look at the pin and make sure it was aligned, THEN knock it back in :)

I think I am going to order the stainless steel guide rod I found online. Seems a worthy upgrade for longevity. Its only $20 too...
