So as I was reassembling my Ruger P95 the slide became stuck back with the barrel and guide rod protruding. I can cock and fire the hammer though the decock doesn't function.
From a little research it seems either the recoil spring assembly was upside down(?)/misaligned or the ejector was left in the "up" position. The solution seems to be to use a coat hanger to pull down on the ejector. However, I'm not terribly familiar with the pistol and don't know what I'm looking for. Anyone have anything more specific as far as fixing the problem? What am I supposed to be looking for?
As an aside, what is Ruger's deal with overly complicated disassemblies/reassemblies?
