M9A1 Spring Upgrades

[Rhyyke]

It was indeed a slotted screw, was just tightening it up and then it just snapped off. I had tightened the other three much more with no such effect. I'm out of town right now but I'll give it a shot when I'm back home, thanks for the tips.

Came home and removed the TCU in favor of the Wilson trigger return spring. Single action pull immediately dropped to 4.5 lbs. Would have been the perfect night except one of my grip screws snapped off while reinstalling it -_-. Any idea what to do with it?

For whatever reason, Beretta grip screws have a knack for buggering easily, especially the hex screws. If you overtighten them, even just a bit, they probably won't come out and will strip.

I was lucky and had the rubber Hogue grips. I was able to pry / rip them off which allowed me to twist them out with pliers. Not exactly the same situation you have but still filed under "Beretta grip issues."
