I really like this handgun, I have big hands and double stack 1911s feel right to me. However, when I shoot this Pro Custom 40 the base of my R thumb just barely touches the safety and moves it a tiny bit which is enough for the safety to be engaged. It seems like the safety is too light??? I have a P15-45 Limited that doesn't have this issue. Any easy fix? Thanks in advance. |

Probably one of those huge safeties, like my para. Like he said above, there is a spring in the plunger tube that does double duty. Pushes detent pins to bear on the detents of the safety and slide stop. Pretty easy fix. For a single side safety look up some YouTube, Same for a ambi. Sometimes a different profile on the detent pin is needed, or a new spring. I fixed one of my paras that had the opposite issue, the safety was a bear to move to safe position. I pulled the parts and smoothed the head of the detent pin |
