I have a broken-in new Para Ordnance GI Expert Govn't model.
After my last shooting session in which I shot 200 rounds of .45acp, I performed a takedown of the pistol for cleaning and tried to remove the firing pin stop to take out the firing pin and spring for cleaning... get it? "spring cleaning?" Anywho, as I was pushing in the firing pin, it would not push in far enough for the firing pin stop to slide downwards.
I don't know if there is some other trick to Para Ords or not, never owned one before now. I did a takedown of my Springer Commander 1911 and the firing pin pushed in just fine and the firing pin stop slid out okay.
Any ideas on why my Para Ord is not being cooperative?
