CZ 75 Compact Rattle
« on: April 25, 2010, 03:14:38 PM »
  Just noticed tonight while dry fire practice(with snap cap) that my CZ 75 Compact has developed a rattle. Or haven't noticed it before. I field stripped the gun to locate it and its in the frame/mechanism. It occurs when I do two things- 1) Shake the gun. Only happens when the hammer is down, not on half/full cock. 2) Hold the hammer all the way back, and pull the trigger (not releasing it). When I pull the trigger the noise happens immediately and almost sounds like two marbles clanging into each other. I cant see anything broken but haven't detail stripped the guts cuz its a lil tricky. Shes only got 3-4 hundreds rds through her and hasn't missed a beat until yesterday, she stove-piped twice (doesn't like Blazer Alum). I used her today to qualify for my CCH. Anyone else's 75 do this? Thanks

Did you break a hammer spring?

Umm, Im not sure. The gun functions fine. Ive just never heard this noise before. Is that the large one inside the grips? If so then it doesnt appear damaged. I didnt know if theres a common spring/pin/part inside the mechanism that I cant see that would have come loose/broken.
