Does the newer production (2 piece slide) RS still use the nearly-impossible-to-find V or U notch firing pins?

Local gun store recently had a good deal on a used RS so I snatched it up.

But I'm an idiot, and after getting it home I took it completely apart to give it a good cleaning and once over, and in the process the damn firing pin shot off to *somewhere* in my basement.

Currently tearing my basement apart looking for it, but in case it doesn't turn up, I guess I'm gonna need some advice on what firing pins will fit, where I can source them from, and what modifications may need to be made to them to work.

I've heard that the square notch firing pins can be cut or filed to work with the R models, has anyone done this themselves and would a gunsmith be able to do it without having the original to work off of as a reference?

After 15 years of searching and losing bids... I not only found and acquired one, but two! This has been my chase for so long!

2x IMI Jerhico 941 R!!!

Both are KBI import stamped, and fully functional. They shoot like a teenage wet dream 🤣🤣🤣

I also love the tie to cowboy bebop. It was one of the few shows like that that I actually watched when I was younger and loved it. It's what got me stuck on finding a clone of his.

One is well loved but fully functional, the other is basically New in box and in perfect condition.

It's also the same batch as spikes gun!!

His serial was 003555 and mine is in the same 0035xx line!

It also came with the always missing .41 ae barrel/spring/mag conversion! ( Not that I'm spending $150/box on the ammo) It's super cool to have.

I can't say how happy I am to finally get these! I went to the range within an hour of getting them 😂 I'll have to add some better pics later!

Look, if you're getting a custom holster anyway... might as well have fun with it? New grips next!

(The holster is a X1 Raptor by Carey Concealment)

Got my Jericho about a year ago from Buds gun shop. Wanted the 4.4 full size model, but they didn’t have any in stock. Turns out I absolutely love the 3.8 model better. Got the slide milled by patriot defense, and the grips are LOK.

My grandpa passed in the beginning of the year. and I got this inherited. Barely used

the firing pin spring must’ve broke, and the entire firing pin went in front of the block, and it’s not budging! any advice??

So far it cycles and ejects rounds (manually) with no problem - both FMJs & hollow points. I'll complete the function check at the range tomorrow and report back.

Update: Ended up hitting the range early. Barrel works flawlessly in the polymer Jericho for anyone interested.

Does anyone know where one can find a SAR B6 2000 series threaded barrel for a full-size Jericho? I missed the last lot. Been searching for an alternative, called patriot defense, and they no longer do the tagfolio threaded barrels.
I just have one Jericho that I'd like to suppress

Purchased a pair of star marked 941F pistols for me and the missus. Hers is a little worse for wear (the black one) and her recoil spring was pretty weak and the slide a little floppy - so I went and ordered a replacement. After researching, poking around a little, and finding this comment, I ordered Wolff spring 49714 for the full size EAA Witness. It's longer than the original but everything I'm reading says that's normal. Got it on and the guide rod back together, installed it and made sure there's no spring binding... But it's now extremely difficult to rack the slide. I had an 18lb recoil spring on my Kahr that seemed easier than this does, and she can't rack it without switching hands. Nothing is binding up or jamming, it's just stiff as hell. Is my upper body strength failing me, does it just need to be broken in, or is this the wrong spring?

It is with a heavy heart that I come here today to unfortunately report that the SAR B6C barrel does not work well with the 941 RS9. It drops in beautifully. It racks amazing like Jerichos do. But the second you feed it a 9mm FMJ, you better be prepared to fight it with all your might to get it to manually eject the round. Decocker tore the skin right off my thumb, but I am happy to say I won the fight and the original barrel is back in it's place. Of course, this could just be my luck, and all I went through is also just a one-off, but I think it's better to say something.

Also, the thread protector does not sit flush, so there is no way to actually tighten it. Everything I mentioned above is without the thread protector installed.

I have a MIG welder and was a welder back in the early 2000's... But after getting one cut to size for the bottom.

This is really a job for TIG.. and I don't own a tig..

Shit my MIG is the cheapest Chinese piece of shit welder that was on Amazon like a year ago.

Humm... What to do, what to do...

Almost tempted to buy a mini machining mill and teach myself machining.

Guns are already an expensive hobby, becoming a machinist hobbyist I am going to guess is expensive AF.

Howdy! I’m looking to purchase the Cowboy Bebop LOK Grips for my Jericho, and I wanna pick a color that most closely matches Spike’s. Should I do Black, Light Grey | Black, Dark Grey | Black, or something else?

Thank you!

various grit levels from roughneck to slight, one sets almost 10 years old i think. and second is my ORP. fuck i love this thing, easily my fav gun to shoot. had some 165 grain scorpion ammo and it was insanely quiet.

And yeah baby eagle has a .22lr can on it, i just didnt have an extra 9mm can laying around for a photo lol

Won this 941r in 40sw on gunbroker for around $600 the other day. Been wanting a non railed 941r and I've also been wanting a Jericho in 40 and 45, so figured I'd knock the 40 off the list. Looks almost new. Very excited to shoot it. Probably going to get a second set of Bebop Lok grips to complete the bounty hunter look

Ported, Lokgrips, PA red dot and a 12lb slide spring. Shoots like dream

I’ve been debating adding an ORP to my Jericho collection and I keep seeing people talk about not all Shadow 2 grips working on the ORP. Has anyone cracked the code on what to look for when purchasing grips? I’d like to get some aggressive texture brass ones, but don’t really want to have to pull out the dremel to fit them to the gun if I can help it.

Yeah , they’re pretty old and in a bad shape becuase they’re for training but what are your thoughts on this 941PL , whats the difference between this and newer version?

Just wanted to let the homies in here know that B6C barrel is back in stock in both SS and black, as well as the 7/24 threaded barrels.

See ya later Space cowboys

I own two Baby Eagles but this is my first actual Jericho 941F. Brazilian contract overrun. Unissued and unfired. So here's my dilemma, is it collectable enough to leave it that way?

Thoughts?

All orp internals in an f9 slide

So like if I found a new production frame, without the safety, would an original R model slide with the decocker function on that frame? I ask cuz I got a spare slide (long story) and like…I don’t see an original frame anywhere online to put it on. So would grabbing a newer production frame be usable while I search for an original?

Looking at some surplus 941 pistols with the chrome finish and star mark. Sitting at about $520 and was wondering if 1. You like your SAO Jericho and 2. If that price was too high.
