Ruger sr9 striker / firing pin take down

[MrBerretaboy]

@mooserak that would be because there the same gun.

Great video, Does the sr9c take down the same way?

Thanks for the info. I was curious though why you would oil the the striker at all? I always try not to get oil or lube anywhere around strikers or trigger assemblies. Oil causes dirt and grime to collect much quicker which in turn creates less reliability and accuracy.  In my experience most gunsmiths recommend very little oil or lube on striker fire handguns if any.

@thelefthandedgun1

ya you are right about that. I oil the striker and then wipe it down leaving very little(thin layer) oil on the striker. I wasn't thinking when I made vid I guess. Still I wouldn't want it completely dry, cuz it is still a metal moving part. I use lot less oil now that I've discovered Mpro7. my other oil used to dry up but the M-pro 7 seems to stay on my gun even after long storage.

@mooserak I didnt catch the part where you said keep away from firing pin until after I sent the message. I'll have to give that a try. Where did you get it?

[Andrew357Magnum]

neato. I have been wanting to do that to mine because It has had quite a few rounds put through it and it gets a lot of dust down in those cavities.

Thanks! all sorts of nasty gunk came out of there.

[mooserak]

@InspireImages

Hey, thanks man. I just bought an sr9c and have read several times that you need to do this and remove all the packing grease from the firing pin assembly, but there aren't any directions in the manual. I used your vid and did it (and cleaned off a ton of extra grease). Thank's again.

[mooserak]

I should have mentioned to be careful not to get oil near the end of striker where it hits the primer of the ammo.

[Magnus2131]

A Glock Tool fits good if you have one.

[Tommydubz7]
