So /k/, I'm apparently a dumbass somehow. Was taking apart

It's just a phase, the tribal tatoo thing will eventually disappear after the gun finishes his puberty.

Guide rod installed incorrectly or you forgot the recoil spring.

I have a P938 which is the same internals and the only thing I can guess is you fucked up the recoil spring and guide rod installation. Possibly the ejector is sticking as well.

I was pretty sure it was the guide rod as well, but fiddling with it did nothing, it's sitting properly. Spring's in.

>>28336832
Why does sig even do this?

>>28336862

take it apart and put it back together a few times. maybe you'll get luck and unfuck it. other than that.. gunsmith or back to sig.

>>28336863
The same reason Mossberg has a thousand versions of the 500. Money.

>>28336815
Do what you did to fix it last time, dummy.

>>28336863

because they just don't care anymore.

You put wrong end of the spring on the guide rod.

His spring is symmetrical.

>>28336891
That's the thing, I did, but can't figure out what exactly it was.

>>28336815
just do what you did to take it apart but in reverse :-)

>>28336815
yeah this happens, I have a P238

just disassemble and reassemble

except take your time the 2nd time around

>>28336923

well the P238 is so simple in operation there are a very limited number of things you could have done to fuck it up. 1 possibly being you did not put the take down in properly through the barrel linkage. Pull back VERY SLIGHTLY on the slide when inserting it

>>28336815
is your recoil spring round or flat?

if it's round, you have a shit spring

Call Sig have have them send you the new updated flat recoil spring. i have pics if you need, of mine

>>28336815
I do this all the time with my 238. when putting the slide catch back in the hole, make sure the rod goes through the moving slot connected to the barrel

>>28336897
this is the old, round, shit recoil spring

call sig and have them send you the updated flat recoil spring if you want any kind of reliability in a carry gun where you absolutely need 100% reliability if you wanna live

>>28337004

this. by the looks of it you pulled the slide all the way to the rear when inserting the pivot pin/slide catch so it's binding up. look up some take down and installation videos on youtube to see how to do it properly.

anybody else replace their trigger like I did?

>>28337218

I might. I have no issue with the stock one other than it feels cheap.

As an owner of a 938, you put the pin in with the slide back to far. Take your pin out and re install in tell correct. Don't say I'm wrong untell you do it 4 or 5 times. It will fix issue

Yep, this was the issue all along; was away for a while, sorry for delayed response. Thanks for the help.
