I just got my PPS/FE on Tuesday. I read in the manual that you need to remove the backstrap in order to field-strip the gun.
Well, perhaps I'm just clumsy, but I don't find that putting the back-strap back on is the easiest thing in the world to do. Also, I'm a little worried about breaking the plastic mechanism. Yes, I do believe in plastic, even my roof is made out of polymer shingles (TAMCO).
Anyhow, I found out that if I just pull the trigger, like you do on a Glock, that you can remove the slide. My question is: will doing that cause any long term damage to the mechanism?
Also, is Breakfree LP a good lubricant to use on this thing?
