Basic aspects of repair 11 General Weapons in need of repair are normally detected during the course of routine examination, musters or parades and during technical and practical service use. Unserviceable weapons are to be repaired by the authorized armament personnel without delay. 1.2 Repair When the action of a weapon is faulty oritprovides poor shooting results, it must first be examined to deter- mine the cause of the unserviceability. The armament personnel carrying out repairs must be well instructed on the weapon concerned. They must be fully conversant with the following: 1. Construction of the weapon and the actions. 2. Purpose, stress and the limits of acceptable wear on the individual components. 3. The use of related gauges and testing equipment. 4, The correct procedure for systematic examination of the weapon Replacement parts are only to be incorporated if, after elimination of all other faults, the weapon cannot be brought up to the required condition. 1.3. Special notes on the treatment of pistols Pistols and magazines ara to be lightly oiled, and the receiver tracks lightly greased. Ammunition may be ciled. Wherever possible, the magazine is to be cleaned weekly, emptied and refilled, at the same time ‘examining it carefully for distortion such as buckling and bending. Buckled and corroded cartridges disco- vered in the course of cleaning are to be removed. After the magazine has been filled, the topmost round Must be pressed down several times and then allowed to rise again so as to ensure that the remaining rounds are correctly positioned in the magazine. Whilst carrying out this action, ensure that the rounds do not jam in the magazine. The pistol holster pro- vides no protection for the weapon and magazine against damage resulting from abrupt changes in temperature 2, Description of maintenance work 21 General ‘The user to whom the weapon is issued is fully responsible for cleaning, general care and the condition of the pistol. Damage and unserviceabilities are to be immediately reported to the responsible armament personnel. Cleaning is divided into the following categories to be carried out as shown: Normal cleaning — Atregular intervals when the weapon is not in use. — After each period of use for which major cleaning is not required. Major cleaning — Each time the pistol has been fired. — Ifthe pistol has become wet or particularly dirty. Each time the pistol is cleaned and subsequently reassembled it must be examined for its condition and perfect functioning. The following items are to be used for cleaning and general maintenance of the pistol: — Cleaning kit, calibre 7.62 to9 mm = Glean pull-throughs and cleaning cloths — Chlorine-free and acid-free gun oil and gun grease — Piece of wood, if needed.Storage case Oil tube Cleaning brush Oilbrush Cleaning brush Cleaning chain Pull-throughs Noomsons Fig. 1 Cleaning kit Itis forbidden to use any of the following items to clean the pistol — Metal implements — Nylon, perlon or other synthetic fibres Chemicals e. g., petroleum ether etc, — Hotor cold water 2.2 Normal cleaning Normal cleaning must be carried out each time the pistol is used. In this case the pistol must be stripped only to the extent necessitated by the amount of dirt accumulated (see Section 3.2). The dirty components must be cleaned and oiled using a clean cloth 2.2.1 Barrel — Clean the chamber and interior of the barrel with a pullthrough, and subsequently lightly oil. — Clean and lightly oil the slide. 2.2.2 Slide — Use the cleaning brush or cloth to clean it out, lightly oil. 2.2.3 Bolthead — Clean the dismounted bolt head together with the internal tracks, and lightly oil — The locking rollers must be caused to move slightly when the bolt head is shaken. Note: Before inserting the bolt head into the slide, allow a few drops of gun oil to drip into the recess square. 2.2.4 Receiver — Use the cleaning brush or cloths to clean the receiver, removing any dirt from the entrance to the chamber. ~ Lightly oil2.2.5 Magazine — Remove accumulations of dirt from the magazin: = Lightly oif Varying amounts of contamination can accumulate inside the pistol, depending on the number of shots fired and the nature of the propellant charge. It is thus recommended to carry out major cleaning of the pistol after a certanin period of use although no interval can be specified. ips and from the follower. 23 Major cleaning ~ Strip the pistol first removing the magazine, detach the slide, and take out the barrel and bolt head (see Section 3.2, or brief description Stripping and cleaning" of P9S). 2.3.1 Barrel — Draw an oil-soaked cleaning brush through the barrel from chamber to muzzie with the cleaning chain (if possible, this should be done for the first time immediately after firing, and while the barrel is still warm to the touch). — Allow the gun oil to take effect for several hours. — Afterwards again draw the oil-soaked brush through the barrel. — Subsequently draw a dry pull-through down the barrel; it must remain clean. — Lightly oil the barrel. = Clean and lightly oil the locking system. Note: Each time that the weapon is fired, the process of cleaning and oiling the barrel must be repeated on the three consecutive days following use. 2.3.2 Slide — Wash in paraffin (kerosene) pushing the firing pin forwards and cleaning it. — Wipe the slide and lightly ol it. 23.3 Bolthead ~ Place in paraffin and use the brush to remove powder deposits, atthe same time moving the extractor. — Use wooden chips to thoroughly clean the intemal tracks in the bolt head as well as the locking roller bearings. ~ Wipe the bolt head and lightly oil it. Note: Before inserting the bolt head into the slide, allow a few drops of gun oil to drip into the recess square. 2.3.4 Receiver — Undo the moulded grip and wash out the receiver with paratfin, wipe dry and lightly ol — Lightly smear both guide greoves for the slide with gun grease. 2.3.5 Magazine — Where contamination is heavy, strip the magazine (see Section 3.4) and wash out with paraffin, wipe dry and lightly oll the individual components.3. Stripping and reassembling the pistol 3.4 General The pistol is stripped for cleaning. If several pistols are being cleaned simultaneously in the same place, then care must be taken to ensure that the parts are nat inadvertantly interchanged Before stripping the pistol, the safety catch must be applied and the weapon examined to prove that the magazine is empty and that there is no round left in the chamber. No tools are required for stripping or reassembling the pistol The use of force is absolutely prohibited. 3.2. Stripping the pistol Remove the magazine (Fig. 2). — Take off the slide by pressing the barrel clamp in the trigger guard forwards (Fig. 3). — Push the slide forwards to the stop and lift it off upwards, Fig. 3 — Remove the barrel by pushing it forwards against the pressure of the spring until it can be lifted rearwards and upwards out of the slide (Fig. 4) Fig.4— To extract the bolt head, use one shank end of the barrel extension to press down between the bolt head and the slide onto the locking catch, until the bolt head springs forward (Fig. 5), — Remove the bolt head from the slide. Fig. 5 Itis not necessary to strip the pistol any further for major cleaning. 3.3 Reassembling the pistol When inserting the bolt head, position it with its rectangular opening over the locking piece (extractor to ejection port) and, as when extracting the bolt head, press down the locking catch with one shank of the barrel extension, at the same time sliding the bolt head further back until it engages. Push the barrel complete with recoil spring (larger diameter end of the spring to the front) at an angle through the barrel hole in the slide against the pressure of the spring (Fig. 6). Then position it fully into the slide, allowing it to move back until the locking rollers engage. Fig. 6 ‘Mount the slide onto the receiver so that the front, guide lugs can engage in the corresponding not- ches in the receiver body. Press the slide down onto the top of the receiver, draw it to the rear and then allow it to travel rapidly forward (Fig. 7). Un- cock the pistol, and insert the magazine. Fig.73.4. Stripping and reassembling the magazine — With the aid of a drift, press down the lugin the floor plate of the magazine and slide the relea- sed plate off (Fig. 8) = Remove the spring locating piece, follower spring and follower from the magazine housing (parts are under spring pressure) Fig.8 ‘The magazine is reassembled in the reverse order. 3.5 Faults, causes, rectification When a stoppage occurs the pistol mustbe treatedas if still loaded until conclusively proven otherwise.

Checking the individual components Having completed cleaning, and before incorporating new individual components and reassembling the slide, all parts are to be examined for impact marks (distortion), the formation of burrs, heavily worn posi- tions and for crack formation. If serious faults are detected, then the parts concerned must be replaced. The following components are to be subjected to special examination: Slide (1) — Check for firm seating of the front sight (2) and the rear sight. A loose front sight blade must be replaced with anew one. If necessary, re-rivet the rear sight on the hollow rivets {visible from within). — The slide must be carefully examined for any cracks — above all, on the side surfaces in the region of the locking system and around the ejection por. — Brazed insert and stop pieces in the slide body must be examined for tight fit. — The notch must not show any signs of wear or other damage. — Guide rail surfaces must remain straight. The dimension between the rails must not exceed 17.6 mm (paying due regard to the sliding action on the receiver). Safety catch (3) The retainer edge for the firing pin and the edge of the notch depression (safety action too smooth) must not display any signs of excessive wear. Barrel with barrel extension (4) and recoil spring (5) — The calibre must not be in excess of dia. 8.76 mm. — There must be no major damage present inside the barrel, and particularly not in the chamber. Minor scratches and damage are of no significance. — The barrel extension should be examined for cracks, especially in the region of the locking recess and ‘the transition into the pronged section. Recoil spring (5) The minimum length of the uncompressed recoil spring must be at least 130 mm. Bolt head (6) — Examine the bolt head for cracks and other damage. — Using a wedge, it must not be possible to force the sliding rollers any further than 16.6 mm apart. The rollers must not be caused to jam as a result of this action; they must release under their own centri- fugal force (swing the bolt head backwards and forwards). — Ifthe above requirement is not met, the bot head must be renewed. — The thrusting edge for the locking catch must not be distorted. — The clawson the extractor must not exhibit any signs of damage or wear; the rear leg of the spring must not be distorted. — The uncompressed extractor spring must have a minimum length of 6.8 mm. Bolt head carrier (7) — There must be no signs of wear or burring on the guide surfaces of the bolt head carrier. — The bolt head must have unrestricted sliding movement on the bolt head carrier. Locking catch (15) — The locking catch must be examined for cracks; the thrusting edge on the locking catch must not be worn or distorted. Compression spring (14) — The uncompressed compression spring must have a length of at least 7.00 mm, 16Firing pin (17) — The hooked rear end of the firing pin (17) must be free from wear or damage. — The tip of the firing pin must be free from any signs of erosion Compression spring for firing pin (18) ~ The firing pin compression spring must be undistorted and have a minimum length of 18.5 mm when uncompressed. Note: Damage to the firing pin is frequently caused by incorrect dry training and frequent dry snapping with the pistol put at safe. Caution: Dry firing practice is only to be carried out with the safety catch released! 4.3.3 Reassembling the slide The bolt head carrier is reassembled in the reverse order af stripping. — Insert the bolt head carrier into the slide, drive it slightly to the rear with a copper mandrel dia. 15 mm, and introduce the firing pin com- plete with compression spring (Fig. 15). Fig. 15 aR — Using the copper mandrel, drive the bolt head carrier to the rear until the drill holes in the bolt % head carrier and those in the slide are aligned. — Insert the safety catch, push the firing pin fully forward ensuring that the nose on the end of the firing pin is visible (Fig. 16) Fig. 16 — Press the safety catch fully home, and check its action by rotatingit into the ,Safe” and ,,Fire” positions. 74.4.

Fitthe disconnector (22) with its spring (Fig. 44) over the centrally positioned hammer and inci- cator pin, making sure that the trigger bar co- mes to rest between the short jaws of the dis- connector. Fig. 44 28Align the drill holes in the disconnector and the hammer as well as the recess for the hammer axle (23), and retain in position by inserting assembly pin dia, 3.85 x35 from the right-hand side of the receiver. — Introduce the hammer axle from the right, taking care that the projection on the axle engages in the recess provided for itin the re- ceiver (Fig. 45). Fig. 45 ~ Mount the angle lever (26), cocking lever (27) and the left-hand bearing plate (28) onto the receiver and attach the bearing plate to the left-hand side of the receiver with counter- ‘sunk screws (29) (Fig. 46). Fig. 46 Note: When inserting the cocking lever, press catch (2) and the arm of the safety latch (16) slightly upwards. Engage the short nase of the bearing plate into the slot providedin the receiver (see arrow, Fig. 46), making certain that the pin on the carrier also locates in the drill hole in the angle lever. — When inserting the intermediate lever (30), ma push the pull bar (18) slightly upwards and i locate it on the pivot in the receiver. ? — Introduce the short nose of the right-hand \ bearing plate (31) into the slot on the other side ofthe receiver (see arrow, Fig. 47) and one pin into the drill hole in the angle lever. Attach the bearing plate with countersunk screw (29) (Fig. 47). Fig. 47Engage the pull bar spring (33) on the right- hand side of the receiver — short leg towards the muzzle end, long leg located in the slot in the pull bar ~ (Fig. 48) Fig. 48 — Locate the elbow spring (32) onthe pivoton the right-hand side of the receiver; engage the ends of the spring into the angle lever (26) and the intermediate lever (30) (Fig. 48) — Locate the elbow spring (82) on the pivoton the left-hand side of the receiver; engage the ends of the spring into the cocking lever (27) and angle lever (26) (Fig. 49). Fig. 49 Uncock hammer (20) prior to inserting the compression spring for the shank (24) — Feed the compression spring aver the shank, Place the magazine catch (25) over the end of the spring and push upwards (Fig. 50). Fig. 50 30Maintain the alignment of the drill holes through the magazine catch and the receiver with an assembly pin. = Follow up with cylindrical pin (6), pressing itin until itis centrally positioned in the receiver. — To fit the moulded grip, uncock the hammer. — Push the grip onto the receiver so that the indi- cator pin (21) passes through the sot in the grip (Fig. 51). Fig. 51 — Without resorting to force, push the grip onto the receiver as far as it will go. — Screw the grip firmly to the receiver with lens head countersunk screws — the shorter screw fits into the upper of the two holes in the rear of the grip. Note: Ifthe moulded grip is properly fitted, then the catch must lie against it. 4.5 Assembling the pistol The barrel clamp must be fully engaged when fitting the slide to the receiver. — Insert the magazine. Carry out functional testing in accordance with Section 4.7. 4.6 Correction of sight alignment Corrections to the alignment of the sights are to be confined to the front sight only. Front sights of various heights are available for this purpose, (1) Changing the front sight Remove the barrelandbolthead fromthe slide. — Using a dritt, drive out the front sight from right to left. (Fig. 52) Fig. 52 — Determine the height of the front sight needed — the size is stamped into the base of each sight. — Depending on the point of impact, drive the new sight blade in from the left or right relative to the cantre line of the slide a1Elevation corrections Point of impact too low: Insert a shorter front sight. Point of impact too high — Insert taller front sight. (3) Lateral corrections Lateral corrections to sight alignment can only be carried out by displacing the front sight. The displacement of the sight relative to the central axis of the slide must not exceed 1 mm. — A0.1 mm displacement of the front sight results in a shift of approx. 17 mmin the point of impact over a range of 25 metres (27.3 yds). Point of impact too far left: Move the front sight to the left. Point of impact too far right: Move the front sight to the right. The sight alignment is checked by firing the P9S pistol over a range of 25 metres (27.3 yds) in accordance with the details on the target illustrated at Fig. 53. Note: Point of aim = point of impact (see triangle on the target's outer 7 ring.4.7 Gonduct of tests after repair 4.71 Gap between bolt head and bolt head carrler (1) The gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier is measured with the aid of a 0.15 mm feeler gauge. — Remove the slide. — Measure the gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier with the feeler gauge. Note: When closed, the gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier must notbe less than 0.15 mm; the result of wear is invariably a decrease in the gap. Powder and other deposits can cause the gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier to Incase. (2) Corraction of the gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier. A below-lImits gap between bolt head and bolt head carrier canbe ractified by exchanging the bolthead, bolt head carriar or the barre! complete with the barrel extension. 47.2 Funetlonal testing — Fully load the magazine with dummy training rounds and insert itinto the receiver. — Check the security of attachment in the magazine well. = Put the pistol on safe”. — Draw the slide back to the stop several times allowing It to snap foward each time. This action must causa all the dummy rounds to be fed, extractad and ejected pertectly. The Indicator pin must show whether the weapon is loaded and the slide must be held on the catch after the last cartridge has been ejected. — Operate the magazine catch; it must be possible to remove the magazine unhindered. — When the slide is drawn back, the cocking lever must allow the catch to engage perfactly and lock the slide with the catch lever. 4.7.3 Gocking and trigger action — Release the safety catch. — Operate the trigger with the hammer uncocked. In $0 doing the hammer must move to the rear and automatically snap forwards when the trigger is squeezed through. — Tension the hammer with the cocking lever; the indicator pin must visibly protrude from the drill hale. ‘Squeeze the trigger until the pressure point is reached; the hammer must not operate. — With the hammer cocked, the trigger force must lie between 1.4 and 1.8 kg — and approx. 4.5 kg using the double action trigger. — Press the cocking lever downwards and holditin this position, squeeze the trigger and maintain itin the rearmost position, allow the cocking lever to move slowly upwards. — Release the pressure on the trigger, the pistol must be uncockad (the hammer is held on the retention notch) and the trigger must not catch. — Press the cocking lever fully down, the pistol must now be fully cocked and the indicator pin visible. — Squeeze the trigger and hold it in the rearmost position, pull back the slide and allow it to ease forward; the hammer must thereby remain cocked. — Actuating the hammer again should be possible only after releasing the trigger. 474 Satety devices (1) Safety of the weapon — The safety lever must move unrestrictedly and engage positively in both positions. — Release the safety catch. — Cook the hammer. — Squeeze the trigger; the hammer must now snap forward. — Apply the safety catch. — Cock the hammer. — Squeeze the trigger; the hammer moves forward and is checked by the safety axla (use an emptied cartridge to test this action — the primer must not be detonated).(2) Safety of the shooter — Apply the safety catch. — Cock the hammer. — With the slide, draw the bolt head approx. 1 mm to the rear. — Squeeze the trigger; it must pull through off-load without operating the hammer. 345 Spare parts catalogue = Fig. 54 Assemblies 5.1 Assemblies tem Parts Designation Part No, Ident.
