    I was reinstalling a repaired Lasermax slide lock spring and it broke off in the frame. The remaining piece has nothing left to grab onto with needlenose pliers. Cannot even get a small pick in the tight space to get it out.

    Any suggestions greatly appreciated.

    Try a little centrifugal force.....tap in on your work bench (upside down).

    Thanks Butch. Got it out with a splintered wooden Q-Tip. Not sure how; maybe the split in the wood grabbed it with just the right pressure.

    I have been taking these apart and putting them together for 10 years and never had this happen. All set. Thanks for the reply.
