hey I did this to my glock 23 and when i put it together and function checked it, it seemed as if the trigger was actually heavier slightly. It defiantly springs forward more but im kinda concerned why it feels heavier. Please reply if you can! Thanks!
This was a fantastic video and a great help to me. I have wanted to do a complete detail strip and clean but was afraid I would mess up my firearm. Your video has enabled me to do that. Many THANKS!! One question is after you have it stripped down should you soak everything in a solution? What would that be or do you recommend a different method? Thanks again!!
Hey man, loved the video! Just a quick question for you, I stripped and reassembled my Gen4 19. After I've put it back together, the little tab that you click up with the punch (at about 2:18 in the video) is back in and seated, but it's not clicking back up when I push on it. I've function checked the gun with a snap cap and it's functioning well, but I'm a little worried about it not clicking up again. Any insight? Thanks in advance!
I took apart my glock and I sprayed gun degreaser down the firing pin channel. I degreased the firing pin, extractor and plunger. Do I lube the channel or any parts before I reassemble?
Awsome!!! I cant believe you dont have millions of veiws!! Maybe you should shoot some explosives at the end of the video for pure Shock value, you know, for the ratings, kinnda like fps russia! but seriously, awsome naration and attention to detail. I still watch this video every time I detail strip my glock 17 just to make sure I do it right and dont fuck it up (yeah, im a noob). I think you need to do a 1911 detail strip, (if you havent already). I'v never done it, but have had people s
Great video, thank you. On the striker assembly take note that the spring has two different ends. One end has one coil, and the other has another overlapping coil. The end with the overlapping coil goes against the striker sleeve, just like you have it. You can see the double coil tip of the spring at 30:12 in the video. Again, thank you for this quality video with excellent narration.
great video.. i can't for the life of me remove the slide after i got it back together.. the trigger isn't engaging correctly to dry fire.. any advice on how to get it back apart to see what i did wrong
I wish all gun videos were as detailed and comprehensive. No cuts or glossing over the gritty work at all. I installed an extended slide stop in faster than it takes me to field strip my Ruger MkII...
thank you for taking the time to to share. After 5000 rounds give are take, and I have never had to take my glock down. just mild cleaning, But good to know. I was wondering what all was in that top half. Now I know if something ever false up there. What all to look for. Not much to it. I might go get a 3rd glock now.
@humans4targets2. Great video!!!! I just picked up a G22 RTF and it is my first Glock. I am planning on putting a 3.5 lb connector, a 6 lb trigger spring, and an extended slide release on it. This video will be a great reference while I perform my mods. Thanks for the heads up regarding the extended mag release. Can you recommend a good connector?
my friend and i took his glock apart this far and it was a learning experience! those spring cups on the striker assembly are tricky but its do-able if you have the right instructions like this video.
Great video. As a fairly new gun owner I am always a little worried about taking a gun apart completely like this. With the glock I am fairly comfortable after seeing your video taking it apart to do a complete strip of the gun and possibly do any modifications. I will have to watch more video's to see if there are other gun strips that will get me more comfortable to do. Thanks again for doing videos like this.
Being a career 1911 guy, I found this video very interesting !
I have always immediately written off Glock because of how it feels in my hands. Now that the gen4 glock, Sig and HK have grip adjustment - i'm looking at all of them more closely.
Seeing the glock inner workings in HD was a great !
Thanks Paul for taking the time to share your knowledge with us.
im gonna get another gen4 19 or 23 tomm not sure yet but when i carried my glock 26 with a extended mag release it would fall in the floor of my car when i sit down i may just stick with factory one
Very Nice video! Does anyone know what changes with the connector that makes the trigger pull lighter? Is it shorter or longer or what? For those of you that have changed the connector, are you happy with it?
@humans4targets2 actually the angle of the end that engages the trigger bar is less then 45 degrees on the 3.5 lb connecter, 45 on the standard connecter, and greater then 45 on the 8 lb connecter
@dwrdhrrs1 You caught that lol, what I wanted to show was after the slide is put back together you can see that part of the extractor depresser plunger up against the back of the extractor when you look at the side of the slide, hope that makes sense.
Thanks for the GREAT video! One pretty amazing thing about Glocks is their simplicity. The fact that you did this in HD really helps - I blew it up to full screen on my 17" laptop & caught every little detail. Detail strip videos with an over-the-shoulder or 3rd person perspective can be frustrating. I'm going to send this vid to my friends that own Glocks!
Great vid man. Waiting on my upgrades for my FIRST glock (g23) to arrive. This vid will make it very easy for me to do the installs. I'll probably start to like them "plastic guns" LOL!!
How the hell could anyone dislike this... I use to hate glocks, as time goes on i am starting to like them more... but this video makes me want to own a glock... seeing how simple it is to replace parts if ever needed this gun is a DIY dream!
Very helpful! Thanks homes
