Would this be something that would affect my Walther PPS? you know if I were EVER to assemble that way?

I really don't know. I do know how you can find out though; try it. Yeah, take it apart, leave those parts out, and stick that old PPS back together. Then be sure to post up your results. We'll just wait to hear back from you.

The question is, why would anyone own Tupperware except for cooking?

I tried that on a stove but it kept melting!!

When I took my first Glock Armorers course in 2000, they taught this. Apparently it happens so often, that they started teaching it in the Armorer's courses.

Would say something about Glock guys not being to bright, but I am fixing to trade for a G 20 so will leave it alone !!! Talk crap about myself to much as is !!

And I may need Drury to show me the trick one day LOL

I think its funny that your friend actually cleaned his glock. Cant imagine why anyone would do that...they aren't 100+ year old jam-o-matic designs that require tender love and care.

Yeah, it does require some "thinking" after all...

So a member here on OSA who knows me gave me a call in some panic...seems he had cleaned his Glock after shooting it and upon reassembling, realized he had not put the barrel and recoil spring back in when he slid that slide on the frame.

Yep, he told me he clicked that sucker right back on there then looked down at the bench and there they were. Barrel and spring. Welp, this is not something you wanna do, as the slide will be stuck on the frame tighter than a drum and the gun really doesn't shoot worth a hoot without a barrel and RSA. I mean it's on there too; you might as well have welded it on! So I told him I could probably fix it, and promised him I would not divulge his name on here, as both he and I are almost certain that many of the fine folks here would call him a major-league ******* and more...and I won't, as long as he keeps buying me beers. But cut the beer off pal, and you might as well change your screen name to Dumbo. LOL!


So should this ever happen to you, here's the fix:

First, you need to get your Glock Armorer's Tool Kit ready to go.

Then all you do is draw the slide back as far as you can, slip a piece of wood or the handle of a screwdriver or something down in the opening to hold the slide to the rear. Now, using the pointy part of the Glock Armorer's Tool Kit, press down on the tab on the underside of the striker, and carefully push the rear cover plate off the back of the slide. And I mean carefully, that thing is under tension and it can fly up and put your eye plumb dang out! Then you would be a one-eyed *******.

Once you have that rear cover plate off, pull the striker out, and the extractor plunger and spring, and then shake the crap out of the thing and let the extractor, and safety plunger and it's itsy bitsy teeny tiny little spring fall free. Careful here too, there are some small parts here that will go to SPBHH, (small parts black hole hell) never to be found again.

Then put the whole thing back together correctly. And there you have it.[/QUOTE

The question is why would anybody want to fix a Glock?

Lmfao! I was going to say throw it in the **** can and buy a good Sig!
