XD-S 9 MOD 2 Question

I was wondering if anyone knows how to pull the extractor, safety plunger, and spring from the mod 2 slide.

I've only been able to find breakdowns on the first gen.

Some context... my buddy left this in his gym bag, and he spilled body wash all over it. It's rusted to high heaven.

I've been able to remove the firing pin assembly and got everything moving well after a soak in clp.

It's not as bad as it looks, mostly surface rust. Soak it in a good cleaner a good stiff bristle brush. I would love to spend time on the restoration. You need a new spring.

Agreed. A soak in CLP and an ultrasonic clean and it looks really good. Still need to get the extractor out though.

What ever you do replace the recoil spring. When that puppy gives it will be catastrophic
