Small shop and I was there the day she got it in. Didn't miss it till I was looking at a couple of magazine disconnect videos on youtube.
I looked it over to make sure the new style guide, check the magazine, it's made in Italy.
As good as Ruger QC has been as of late, if it was supposed to be there I want it.
Yep, understand that completely. BTW, I haven't seen a really good youtube video on removing the disconnect on the striker fired LC9
s, yet. Most of the vids are on the LC9 and there seem to be some minor differences. There are two guys in a pi$$ing contest with each other over whether the disconnect can be removed without removing the trigger. On my LC9s I can say that I decided not to risk it because it was obviously "hooked" in pretty good and I feared scratching the trigger and mucking up that smooth pull that attracted me to the gun in the first place. The one video shows the disconnect practically falling out...but I think there may be two slightly different parts used for the disconnect because the one in that video appeared to have a much shorter tab than the one I removed.
In any case, removing the trigger itself is a piece of cake so I recommend just doing that as a matter of course.
If you watch all of the videos...take with a grain of salt...and then use your head you won't have any problem at all. It took me about 15 or 20 minutes...having done it once I don't think it would take much more 10 if I were to do it again (and I've heard of shops charging $65 to do it...).
Check your feed ramp really closely...although if you get good range results with a variety of ammo I suppose that will prove the ramp. Mine initially wanted to be picky about feeding wide-mouth HPs. The feed ramp was about the roughest I've ever seen. Flitz and a buffing wheel on a Dremel, at low speed and working vertically along the face of the ramp, solved that issue quite nicely - but it took much longer than the polishing that I routinely do on a new pistol. It's a shame we have to do that on a brand new gun but once it's done the gun is really a pretty nice little bit of work. Good accuracy for its size, etc.
