I dont' have p360's but I bet dollars to donuts you somehow assembled them improperly (or you somehow got dodgey sticks)  There was a recent post where someone else had assembled them wrong somehow and had a simliar issue - i'll see if I can dig it up as a reference for you...

in any case you can always call happs for replacements if they are defective...

That recent post was not that they were sticking, but that there was play in them when they were centered.  He had not pressed down hard enough to get the shafts to click into place.  I think we're thinking of the same post, anyway.

If the conical spacer (highlighted) is installed upside-down, it will make the P360's stick.  Double check how that spacer is installed if you haven't already.

Oscar, are you really smart or have you just done everything wrong at least once?

You give me too much credit.  I normally don't learn until at least the third try.   :)
