Help! Model 1914 Field Strip / Disassembly Issue

(1/2) > >>

bigbore44:
I just acquired an excellent condition Model 1914 made in late 1928.  I am unable to get the slide to move forward off the frame when meticulously following directions.

After carefully following protocol my slide will only move forward about 1/4" then it hits something solid.  Something metallic solid.  I soaked the moving parts with G96 gun treatment with no success.

I removed the grip but am unable to see anything to push, press, wiggle to all the slide forward.

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated.  Regards, Lance

Try reinserting the magazine and see if that frees up the slide to mover forward

Hello, geert45.  Thanks for your fast reply.  I will try removing the "Magazine Catch" bar but I have the same question that Kev Hernandez did:  Is it safe to remove it with the slide and side cover on the gun?


Also, please confirm that what your are calling the "Magazine Spring" is in fact the long flat piece on which the bottom is the "magazine catch"?  (Numrich refers to as "Magazine Catch".)


Thanks again for your suggestion and link.  But, I'll wait till you confirm the part that I should remove.  :-)

Hey Pardt, I've tried every possible combination of inserting, pulling trigger, removing, reinserting, etc. (including several different variations) so many times that the recollection of the definition of insanity comes to mind; i.e. "Doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results."  lol
