Hey guys. I just bought a used glock 26, and would like to get disassembly instructions for it. I'm going to call glock and get a book, but I'd like to find out before they get around to mail it to me.

I won't be wronged, I won't be insulted, and I won't be laid a hand on. I don't do these things to other people and I require the same from them.

Great care must be used to disassemble the Glock. However it is one of the simplest to take apart. RULE NO.1 MAKE sure the gun is unloaded,point the gun in a SAFE direction. Pullthe trigger and pull down the slide release and pull the slide back about a quarter inch be sure not to pull back to far or you will have to repeat the process now firmly holding the slide move it forward until the slide is off the frame. Now use caution and remove the recoil spring hold on to it firmly as it could fly out while under pressure. And there you go, to reassemble repeat the process in reverse order. hope this helps.

Glock is very good and very fast about shipping out an instruction book, so don't wait. Practice disassembling and reassembling several times. It's pretty easy, but not quite as easy as with a Beretta or SIG IMHO.

Try Glockmeister.com. There is a section called Free technical Info. You can find it by scrolling down and looking in the left column or try this URL. There are also excellant articles (with diagrams) on field stripping, cleaning and lubricating glocks.

First, Congratulations! You just bought one of the finest guns ever made. I think so at least.

Yeah, just follow the directions above. 1st and foremost, make sure

the GUN IS EMPTY. No magazine, clear chamber.

KEEP POINTED IN SAFE DIRECTION.

Pull the trigger,

pull slide back 1/4 inch. Easily done with left hand: fingers over top of slide, fleshy part of thumb on the curve on rear of grip.

using otherr hand, pull both sides of the catch right above the serial # down.

Let slide come slowly forward, the rest is easy.


My gun is prettier than yours, and it's a Glock!

Is there a risk of unnecessary wear and tear on the Glock if you dry-fire it?

have fun taking apart the mags

There is not unecessary wear and tear on it. You can't dry fire it enough. Dry fire training is very important.

I just wish I had a dollar for every gun I wanted, then I'd be a rich man.

To take apart the mags, push the little button thing in with a punch and put the edge of the bottom against the edge of a table and push, it will come apart.

Whenever I took my mags apart the first time it was really hard, but after I broke them open once, they've been easier ever since. Just have to break them in I guess.

If I'm wrong please correct me, I won't be offended.
