Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 do i need to spray the slide rails or gas valves? so with the berreta, you just pull it off after pressing something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) Push in a button on the right of the frame, turn the takedown lever through 90 degrees, remove slide. Piece of pish, as Sean Connery might say. Edited August 25, 2005 by Sledge Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 ah but you have to do to buttony things, with the glock there is only one buttony thing... how do you strip a mac and a DE? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rob15 Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 do i need to spray the slide rails or gas valves? so with the berreta, you just pull it off after pressing something? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If you want also, does it matter if i store my glock with it cocked i don't keep the slide locked back or anything Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sledge Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 There's a buttony thing on either side of a Glock, AND you have to cock it. Ok, still not rocket science, but the Beretta is still easier. The DE takes down like the Beretta, at least as far as getting the slide off. Dunno about the MAC.

Guest Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 (edited) i don't think it would matter leaving it cocked... and on the glock, the buttony thing is just one thing, you just cock it back, pull the buttony catch thingy up and slide the slide off. edit: and on the DE is it hard stripping it?

Sledge Posted August 25, 2005 Report Share Posted August 25, 2005 Are you sure you've stripped a Glock? There's a lever on either side of the frame that is moved DOWN. As for the DE, nah, it's fine. GO have a play with my old one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HaVoC Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 I think his one was just machined wrong. The next one fitted ok I believe. <{POST_SNAPBACK}> The second one didn't fit because the blowback mech was scraping against the inside of the slide, on the top. I think this was probably caused, however, by me removing the little nodule on the side of the mech in order to get it to fit into the original (incorrectly milled) slide. Which was a stupid thing to do. Still, she works properly now. I just want a better recoil spring (the G19 OEM one is still quite slow). Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SilentScope Posted August 26, 2005 Report Share Posted August 26, 2005 (edited) Removing that part of the piston unit was the right thing to do. SD said they would come out with a 2nd gen USPC slide that didnt copy every dimension of the plastic slide which needs to be bent to get the piston unit in and out. I havent seen it yet though. The cylinder scrapes against the top of the metal slide because the tolerances on the SD slide are stricter. It should just clear itself up though, because the plastic of the cylinder wears down from its contact with metal. Sorry the G19 spring isnt working out for you. I guess it was my luck. Try putting a stronger recoil spring from a bigger Glock in your gun. The USPC has no trouble getting that slide back with enough force, its the return that needs help sometimes. On a side note, this is what happened when I added a high flow valve with a Protec super speed recoil unit (they dont call it that for nothing) and some green gas in hot weather: The lower frame cracked because the recoil put too much stress on it. Looks like Im going to have to buy yet another USPC. Yeah its dedication, I know. Edited August 26, 2005 by SilentScope Quote Link to post Share on other sites
