It is not good to take that pin completely out. You can get it back in but it may/will eventually break the retaining spring. Then you will have trouble
with the gun itself if the retaining spring breaks, the retaining spring cannot be replaced. I am all too familiar with that. Try not to take it out!! When I clean mine I
am now very careful with that pin and I take more time disassembling the gun for cleaning.

Yeap, the pin came all the way out, but with a little time and light pressure I was able to get it back in place. But, all of this makes me kind of wonder...do you think if you were to grind down one side of the pin it would make it easier to reseat the pin should it once again get pulled all the way out. I was wondering how you would go about replacing that little tiny spring should it ever snap. I guess you are telling me that it can't be done....correct?

I agree with you on the pin. Once that little sucker comes all the way out it can be a pain to get it past the spring and back into place.

I have the PX4 sub-compact in the 9mm. It has a few features that I really like, such as the all plastic/poly exterior. No worries about scratching off any bluing. External manual safety/decocker as well as the SA/DA trigger. As for recoil, I find it smooth to fire over and over. Of course I always feel that recoil is more of a matter of personal preference and very subjective to the owners physical stature and experiance with shooting.
Would I buy another...yeap, you betcha.
