Loaded chamber indicator - XDTalk Forums - Your HS2000/SA-XD Information Source!

Hi folks
Might have a small problem with my HS2000, the loaded chamber indicator is protruding even when the chamber is empty.

Is there a spring under it? Could it just be crap from spent cases or just dirty? No I havn't cleaned it fully yet.

Probably just crud. There is a spring, but it is there to hold it down. Do a search; this has been discussed quite a bit.

Take the slide off and hose down the LCI with brake cleaner or something while working the LCI with a finger or similar.

Breakfree is good stuff....in addition to that use an air compressor if you have one.
