Did a little work to my M&P22 (safety and mag disconnect removed, hammer spring cut,
So i ordered a safety removal kit from Ryan ([ MADE BY RYAN JAY ] ) and while i was installing i decided to tinker with a few things.
removed the magazine disconnect so i could drop the hammer without a mag. pretty easy to do once you have everything out, just have to loosen the philips screw in the back so they disconnect would drop out. i have also been having an issue when using cheap bulk .22s (runs perfect with CCI minimags and AR tacticals). with a fully loaded mag the first round or two would either not eject or the slid wouldnt cycle all the way to reset the hammer. i think this is due to a combination of things. the stiff hammer spring, a dirty gun, underpowered ammo, etc. SO i cut two coils off the hammer spring in hopes it would lighten the pressure and allow the slide to cycle all the way back even with cheap ammo. gonna run a hundred rounds or so thru it soon to see if that helps.
if not im going to take out the hammer and polish it up as well as the block on the slide that resets the hammer.
and while i was had everything out i decided to give it a coat of Alumihyde in Coyote. Turned out pretty good but i can aleady tell its gonna get nicked and worn off. thats cool cause i like the worn out look.
