HSc Takedown Problem
vlim:
Sometimes it may get stuck on the hammer. Try pulling the hammer down while trying to release the slide.
f4wso:
All thanks, a lot of good ideas. I tried all of the suggestions to no avail with the help of extra hands and a vice. Maybe I am missing something or it is the arthritis. I have pushed the barrel latch all the way down with tool slightly into the trigger guard, while holding the hammer back and moving the slide forward. The slide doesn't budge. Am I missing anything?
I am used to having problems with old firearms and it always works outs - reason for the hobby. I want to salvage this pistol and will keep trying.
Regards, Wib

Just measured. My barrel latch moves downward 2mm upon pressure applied.

f4wso:
Jim, good idea maybe not pushing down far enough. Not sure if you measured it but mine goes deeper than 2mm by eyeball. With a plastic tip actually managed to get it farther down and stuck - still no luck. Thanks, Wib
f4wso:
All,
Thanks for all the advice. I guess something is broken inside and keeps the slide from moving forward. I don't know if it is normal but when the safety is engaged the slide moves forward which to me would lock it tighter on the takedown latch. Anyway, it is a neat looking paperweight for now
