22 WMR Bound slide with hammer deployed

[Markandbrad]

Hey team,
I got myself in a trouble. I was putting in a new moray short stroke trigger on the M&P 22 WMR.
During reassembly of the slide I missed the reat slide alignment to the rail, accidentally pulling the trigger. So the hammer is up position and my slide is bound by misalignment.
I need to somehow return the hammer down to release the slide forward.
Any ideas?

Hey M&P team, I fixed it by using a small screwdriver through the back side, got it wiggled between the slide and the hammer, then held it down and let the slide back.- success.
Don't buy a moray short stroke trigger for year 22 WMR, maybe 5.7 does not have that problem...but They sell triggers that are the same. It is a complete waste of time- the fit and function is incorrect. Gallaway precision makes the trigger. It's just a 3D printed fiber carbon.
Stick with your OEM! Unless Apex ever comes up with a trigger for the internal hammer fired line.

Regards, & God bless

I didn't have too much of an issue other than the moray being sort of "sticky" as in inconsistent trigger pull weight. some felt good (using made up numbers) it seemed some were like original 4lbs or so and others 6 or 7. I took it back off and used real fine sanding paper to smooth both sides and wow, simply loving it. I will say that I did have an issue with slide locked up during reassembly after first putting the trigger in but that was entirely my fault not paying attention. It would be nice if they had maybe a mid way guide to keep it from going a touch too high when getting closer to the back.
