Alrighty, here's the deal. I just finished constructing my first K9 special, and I have a problem. When I try to cock it, I can see the trigger move as if the catch was engaging, but the plunger seems to stop short just before the catch can engage. It's only off by less than half and inch, and I can't seem to figure out what the problem is. If anyone could help me with this dilemma it would be greatly appreciated. I have studied and worked with the internals of the PAS before so I have an adequate understanding of them, and i can get pictures if anyone needs them.

Post pics, But I suggest taking all the internals out and apart and putting them back together.

the handle for the clip breech is to close to the handle, move it closer to the edge.

I would say springs. What's in it?
I would recommend changing springs,

Like BritNerfMogul said, it's most likely the springs. Often, a certain combination of springs cannot compress enough, therefore not catching. Either the spring(s) you're using cannot be compressed that far, or if you twisted two springs with equal diameter into each other.
I am so omniscient; if there was to be two omnisciences, I would be both!

I had this same problem. Contrary to popular belief, pump action shotguns do not need that many catch springs. If you reinforced the trigger with epoxy, make sure to round the epoxy so that the plunger rod will catch. If it is flat, the rounded end of the plunger rod will not be able to make it over the reinforcement and therefore will not catch.

The brown piece in thew back of the plunger tube may be broken I had the same problem once but got a new piece and the fixed it.

Alright guys. I have not done any reinforcements, I only have the stock spring in, and the breech handle is at least an inch away. I have taken out the internals and put them back in around five times, and I still can't figure out the problem. I will post pictures later today or tomorrow.

the front of the pump handle might be getting stuck on the other end of the breech
