Some holster wear and a little finish worn off under the slide stop. Good trigger in DA and SA. I replaced the recoil spring. The Hogue grip screws were not rusted, just caked with grime. They cleaned up nicely.
After cleaning and lubing I checked function with the pencil test. Cock the pistol, drop a number 2 pencil down the barrel - eraser first - decock the pistol and the pencil should not move. insures that the decock/safety functions.  |
Pictures, we want pictures.
Just in case another forum member were able to pick up a CS9 from the same source, in more or less the same condition, where should he/she focus those two cleaning hours?
Was there a lot of work to be done on the barrel or was there something else major?
On my way this morning to the big-box office supply store. All I could find here was #3 pencils.
