UPDATE: 229 Legacy Upper on Legion Lower Problem Now Solved Login/Join

Just picked up from the smith.

So -- it works now with the Legacy slide --

Apparently it was a geometry issue between the locking block, trigger, and trigger bar.

He said there's a post on the trigger itself (I admit I haven't stripped out the gray guns trigger to see how it differs from a standard p-trigger, but) and that it was literally a thread too high. After shaving it down a hair, everything is now sitting low enough for the slide to rack the hammer.

Works same with original Legion slide as well, with the legacy 228/9 locking block still installed.

Set me back $95 for his trouble. Sigh. What we can't do ourselves...

It may seem strange but I found this entire thread enjoyable to read, like I was reading a book with a happy ending.



The danger of baobabs is so little recognized.

Even that! It's cool that that was the first thing that popped in your head.

It's an old meme. Dusted it off. I can't wait to put some rounds down range on the 229 now that I've got the RDS on it!

I'll try and do a range report after the weekend.
