Broken Grip Safety Spring

mp40 · 08-03-2009, 10:24 AM

Thanks for all the help everyone...someone here offered to sell me a spring, so I'll only try and take the grip safety off when I get the spring in the mail...I just hope that there is enough "spring" as you say in the grip safety sheet metal since it is so old...probably early 1940s.

Check my pic in the posting above, that pin is only .10" long so you only need to lift it a tiny bit, just make sure that the screwdriver blade is as close as possible towards that pin.
The 06/29 grip safety spring is much stronger and bigger as with the older Swiss Lugers.
