i have had my 226 and 228 for years. every so often i dont get slide lock. wrong grip hitting the slide catch, at least so i thought. i just got a 227 a few weeks ago.only once in the six mags would i get the slide to lock.
not always the same mag. i marked the mags and cycled the gun empty to get it to stick. very random on which would catch. if i applied slight upward pressure to the mag it would catch at least 90%. got a new slide catch. same result. i took apart one mag and stretched the spring to give more tension when empty. with that mag it now catches 95%. did a second mag, that one too. did the other four. now they are all about 95%.
i loked at the next part. that spring under the locking block. so much tension pressing down, and only to catch the follower. i straightened out the tip slightly. now it is at 100%. my arms are tired from cycling the gun.
