[nza]

Building on bsand's comment on how easy Glocks are. Here ia a recent posting that breaks down the Glock's during action step by step. Very informative

Cool.....thanks nza...always wondered what was going on in there....

Who ever said glocks were simple. That is a lot of engineering.

Thanks.

Ah, that's a very informative video and answers a lot of questions for me.

To those without the time to watch it, as you probably already suspected. It works primarily through magic.

Good video hate the voice..

Excellent video and it shows you exactly what areas need to be polished to improve the glock trigger.

I think there is a mistake though at 6:29....the trigger safety is not reset by any of the recoil action of the pistol.... That is reset when the finger comes off the trigger

Considering I can disassemble and re assemble in 30 minutes make it quite simple. Unlike an ar you can lose Springs and detents real easy.

Had to be the most painless re&re I've had to do.

No one said the engineering behind the design was lacking. The mechanical assembly of the pistol and how it works is simple.

Neat video. Is that an uncomplicated design? Or is it a matter of uncomplicated to disassemble and reassemble?

Somewhere I have a memory of someone saying "you ought to be able to strip and reassemble a .45 in 25 seconds" Al Pacino, maybe?

How does the Glock compare with the 1911 for simplicity of disassembly?

I think they mean field strip not detail disassemble.

But yes easy to take apart and put back together.

Making things complicated is easy. Making them simple... that takes real talent.
