M9 Possible crack?

pat123 · January 10th, 2009, 19:41

On my KWA M9 PTP slide lock their might be a small crack marked out by the yellow circle. I've only gone through about 4 mags and noticed this after taking the slide off and the pin was out. You can also see that the pin is coming out which happens after cocking the slide back and releasing a dozen times the pin is falling out. Is this a common flaw and is there a simple solution to my problem?
Thanks Pat

The breakage of the Locking Block appears to be a common issue that affects first generation KWA M9 PTPs, and apparently has been resolved with second generation guns.

KWA sells, which appears to be a reinforced version of the Locking Block, and if you are in the US, you might be able to get a replacement free of charge, if it’s in the warranty period, otherwise try contacting them or ordering it online.

Im not sure what version mine is. Are the parts interchangable? and does the part come with the pin and spring?

Visit www.kwausa.com and go tho the PRO SHOP linc in the top right corner of the screen. This will lead you to the various schematics for the various AEGs and GBBs and you can find what you are looking for there.
You can also go to the customer service section and document you problem. One of the guys will get back to you in a day or so, and help you through what you can and can not do...ie, if you are in Canada, you cannot get the warrenty work done if you qualify (only because they cannot return ship your GBB to Canada). But, they can ship up almost any replacement part you need.
