P08 Trigger Problem

Thanks for responding so quickly. The pistol won't fire at all with the safety on so I know that's working.

On the end of the sear bar at the front is a spring plunger that acts as the disconnector. When you fire the gun and it returns to battery this plunger is compressed by the trigger bar in the sideplate. When you release the trigger this plunger pops out behind the trigger bar so that it can contact it when you fire the next shot. It sounds like this plunger is not popping out when you release the trigger therefore not allowing the gun to fire. If you remove the sideplate and look at how it is linked to the trigger and sear bar you will see what im talking about.
