CHANGING SPRINGS IN PA-63
FIRING PIN SPRING
the first thing is to take the extractor out
take dental pick put it in between the extractor and the extractor pressure pin
pull back on the extractor pressure pin and take out extractor slowing let go of extractor pressure pin
and take out
push firing forward as far as it will go take hemostats and clip the on to the firing pin
put muzzle end of slide strait down this will relieve the safety pin
you may have to pull down on the hemostats at the same time wiggle and turn safety until comes out
release hemostats take firing pin out
there is a small spring with a plunger on top of the firing pin you may want to just clean it and put it back
pull firing pin spring off and replace
put back together in reverse order

CHANGING SPRINGS IN PA-63
Thanks again Norm,
Why again? I just used your instructions to switch out the trigger spring on my PA-63 with Wolff's lightest from the 3 spring kit , the 9 pounder. Lighter is less safe, but I'll see if it's better. The lower DA trigger pull was nice on the test dry fire, almost like the cocked pull, I'll test it with live ammo tommorow.
It was easy with a little coaching. Thanks
