Gen 2 Replacement Trigger for the Ruger American® Centerfire installation

[@kentwilliams3326]

I am concerned. The locking block pin came into being when the Glocks were tested at Aberdeen Proving Ground for the U.S. Border Patrol. The Glock 22 and 23 test weapons (3 of each model) catastrophically failed between 6,000 and 8,000 rounds of the 10,350 reliability / durability tests at Aberdeen. Subsequently Glock added the locking block pin and, as far as I know, that cured the problem. Glock, for reasons unknown didn't submit the modified Gl22's and 23's for our best and final offer tests. (Note: The tests at Aberdeen were conducted in 1993, 1994, and 1995.) When I saw that the Gen 5's did not have locking block pins I wasn't concerned because the non-locking pin series had successfully fired many thousands of rounds, far surpassing 10,000 rounds, but when I saw the Gen 5's being chambered for more intense cartridges I became concerned.

What does Glock have to do with a Ruger American video? Not a damn thing. Apples to oranges. Every comment on this video is about a Glock. Go comment on a Glock video if you've got an axe to grind.

@@sneakybow1 You are absolutely correct! I have no idea how my Glock comment showed up on a Ruger rifle video!(?)

Your warranty program is a joke.

Timney or Glocks?

@kentwilliams3326 Timney. Glocks warranty program is very good, I broke 2 factory firing pins, and they sent me 2 firing pin assemblies, within a week from start to finish.
