To which I say:
What you have described is NOT a detailed strip of the P7. There are LOTS more parts that need to come off the frame (and a few buried in the slide, before you can have that pistol detail stripped.

What you described is a FIELD STRIP.

justin2992,

Thanks for sharing! I will probably try this over the weekend and see how it goes. Glad someone else did if first!

My other project is to modify a S&W Sigma 17 round mag and make it work in the Steyr M9. I'll take pictures and let all know how it goes!

I know.....just teasing

Only becaue I hope someone detail stripped my old M13 before I got it in 84 as 30,000 or so rounds later I have only field stripped it since!
