hollywood_shooterUPDATE: 229 Legacy Upper on Legion Lower Problem Now Solved
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...

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

KeystonerEven 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.
