Ruger P89 Disassembly Picture Manual

Post by HEADKNOCKER » Sun Oct 03, 2010 1:06 pm

Bullseye asked that I paste my Pictures over in the Technical Area as in the future a P85/P89/P90/P93/P94 owner can find the info..
Note: That several of the parts of the various models are different & the Deckocker only are also slightly different..As well as different recoil rod assemblies & barrel links etc..
This picture thread was made with a 1993 P89 Frame that recieved a Mid 2000s parts kit, The slide break down was done on the original 1993 slide

Ruger P-89 Disassembly Picture Manual
WARNING If You Don't Have the Propper Skills To Try Any Of This Then You Should Seek Out A Qualified Gunsmith
Do This Of Your Own Risk..
Safety Glasses Should Also Be used as a Few of The Parts are Under Spring Tension & Could Fly Away & Cause Injury To Your Eyes

I am taking the time to make this manual because I couldn't find any information On The P- Series Rugers when I started my "Project P-89"
Maybe in the Future this can help someone else out..
Enjoy!!
Gary

When Reinstalling RH Safety You Must Depress The Dentent & Spring as You Push It Into Place
Image
When Installing The Extractor I Found Using a Wooden Dowel Threw the Barrel Hole In The Front Of The Slide The Easiest, Tap Lightly on the Dowel with a Small Hammer Till It Pops Back Into Place
Image
Checking Firing Pin Protudtion By Pushing on The Firing Pin From The Rear While Pushing The Firing Pin Safety Plunger, You Can Also Check The Firing Pin Safety This Way By Pushing The Firing Pin In as Far as It will go then depress the firing pin safety plunger & it should then allow the firing pin to move forward into the breach face..
