How to reinstall hammer strut in European P225?
I've got a P225 Montage Suisse, European mag release, that I removed the grips to try some new ones, and the hammer strut/mag release popped out. Have not been able to get it back in... little help on how it's supposed to be done? Thanks in advance!

I am emailing you the 2nd generation Armorer Manual for the P220 which includes a section on the European Magazine Release.

Fair warning, when I was maintaining Sig's with the original style Main Strut, I bought a dedicated Tool to remove and install the Hammer Strut and the Hammer Strut Spring.

Doing this by hand is certainly possible, but it's not fun and it usually cost me a screwdriver into the palm of my hand or along one of my fingers.

The Armorer Manual on it's own might not be clear on how Sig taught removal and installation during their Armorer class.
