New guy here,
I stripped my micro 9 down for the first time today for a cleaning. I realized I installed the take down pin wrong and now I can't get it back out! The barrel is loose and moves around. The spring back rod is stick out. I've been googling and youtubing but I haven't been able to figure it out. Do you guys have any suggestions for me?
Bummer... I recall this happening before, I will search for the thread, OR you can put it in a box and send it to me Welcome to KT, hope you can stay for awhile, this is a great place.
There are e few things to read on in the Micro 9 threads, I am scamming them now, you might want to check it too, just for future help? I don't own a Micro, I can't, do to the parole officer of California!
Did you install the slide stop pin behind the barrel lug? If so you are going to have to carefully drive it back out after lining all slide openings up correctly. Use a chop stick and brass or plastic mallet. But check with others before listening to me. I don't have a Micro 9 but I think I read this resolution on this forum before. Good luck!

I thought it would come to something like this. What exactly does lining up all slide openings mean? In the position I'd put it in to remove the take down pin?
Make sure the openings in the slide match the openings in the frame . This allows the slide stop pin to easily go in and out.
Don't hesitate to take a picture and post it so we all can see what is going on.
What the guys says in the video is probably exactly what I did, I tried putting the spring back rod in the vise like he says but still no luck. I'm actually working on it right now
I took it over to a local shop. The man worked magic with his hands. He has the pin out in 30seconds. They even did some custom embroidering for me! Glad this is over, now back to shooting
I'm glad to hear that your gun is back together and working properly.
