    I've bought stuff for my Benelli and my M&P from these guys. They always seem to have the odd part you need.

    I agree 100% on ease of repair...I took the fp out on the hood of my car at the range, I just didnt want to pay almost $50 for a fp.

    Tom, I did see that, cheapest place I found..Im ordering tonight..thank you sir.

    Not for me..OEM only.
    Someone earlier asked about round count..well over 15000 but less than 20000. I used to keep meticulous notes, but dont anymore.

    Not common, but at your round count, the striker doesn't really owe you anything.

    Man I agree 100%. Im am a Glock lover, but not one of those fantasy idiots who thinks "glocks never break". Ive "broke" 3 now, all highly used. Everything breaks when used enough.

    If your glock does not break, your not shooting it enough. Everything breaks. I never broke a striker, but broke and wore some other parts. maybe I should keep some on hand.

    For the record I do not run one. But I think it is entirely possible for a competent machinist to make one better then glock, which I believe is a MIM part.

    My Gen 1 M&P FS has 20k-25k through it. I'm pretty amazed the striker hasn't broken. The slide release broke and I wore out the trigger bar, but the striker is still humming along.

    There is nothing aftermarket that will improve the Glock pistol mechanical design, to include triggers. Learn to shoot with a stock gun and the rest doesn't matter. That goes for parts replacement as well, stick with factory.
