If someone snaps the striker while the slide is off the frame.
My experience when I had free ammo is most folks can't afford to break a Glock. I've broken two parts on the same gun, Gen 3 G17. Trigger spring-one thing I found is that the trigger will reset if you are aggressive on the reset, meaning running the gun like a rented mule. Locking block pin, removed the remaining half and slide stop and shot it a few more days. The spring was around 40k and the pin, around 75k. I had a gen 4 19 that had over 50k, no breakage. I would run each for at least a week before cleaning but would always hit the connector with a drop. Used grease on the slide/barrel, even in the winter which was as low as 10-15 outside
Having said that I have every part but the barrel to replace on gen 3/4 17/19/26 and a Gen 5 19, even locking blocks
GET IN YOUR BUBBLE!
RSA and springs in my opinion. I heard the Gen 5 slide lock spring is a good one to have, along with the trigger housing...
I broke a FP on my Gen 3 19 earlier his year on the range. I shudder to think of that in a SD situation.
Ive got an extra one now. $36 part from MIDWEST.
The obedient always think of themselves as virtuous rather than the cowards they really are.
Forgive me, but you are certain it was not the firing pin sleeve that was damaged? This part?
Every other reference to channel liner replacement I can find involves slide refinishing or aftermarket slides. With 17K listing this as one of "the most replaced parts" I have to at least wonder if we are actually talking about the same thing.
Thank you.
