sr9c - loose lower camblock pin after Rocket install

[HuttoAg96]

jhearne and others - after the first time I completely disassembled the weapon, I found the lower camblock pin (#52) was loose. I eventually figured out that I needed to re-bend the Camblock Pin Retainer (#31) as it appears to be the piece that holds the camblock pins in place. If I didn't rebend it a little the lower camblock pin was free to fall out once the upper camblock pin gets inserted (which stresses the pin retainer). I got it to hold, but when I shot my pistol the other day the camblock pin started walking out after every few shots.

Any easy solutions to this? Do I need to just order a new pin retainer?

btw the rocket is nice, thanks for the easy to follow instructions.

TIA.

Get you a new pin retainer spring. For whatever reason the SR9c is terrible to have a large channel for it which can make for a hassle getting back together. I actually stock them for in house work as several had been damaged or missing on pistols brought/shipped to have work done.

Yeah, new spring. It has to sit just right and any damage incurred during disassembly/reassembly is too small to notice right away. It's pretty inexpensive IIRC.
