Backstrap installation for all P Series pistols - Ensure the hammer strut and hammer spring
are properly positioned on the back of the frame (Figure 9). Place the replacement grip
panel on the back of the frame, approximately 1 inch (2.54cm) lower than its assembled
position (Figure 10), and push the grip panel up onto the grip rails.
Figure 9 Figure 10
Continue pushing the grip panel upward on the frame. As the grip panel slides upward
onto the grip rails, the hammer spring will compress slightly creating resistance. Continue
to slide the grip panel upward until it fits flush and there is no gap between the top of the
grip panel and frame.
At this point, the pin holes on the grip panel and the frame will line up. Carefully reinsert
the pin and push it through the grip panel and frame using finger pressure (Figure 11).
With the pin properly aligned in the grip panel and the frame, carefully tap the pin until it
is fully seated and centered in the frame (Figure 12).
