XD9 Beavertail question..

I'm having trouble getting the pin out? Is there something else holding it in besides pressure? Like another spring or something? Any help would be appreciated.

I'm going to assume you a taking about the grip safety. tomfoolery is correct and remember pins are driven out left to right when looking from the rear of the gun.

That's the way I was trying to push it out, but it wasn't working. There ended up being a groove in the pin where the spring fits into. So just had to give it a little more motivation and it came right out, right to left

Why are you removing it? Just curious.
