Wondering how to teardown / disassemble / clean your new Glock 19 pistol? Well you've come to the right place. Ill walk you through dismantling your Glock 19 and the steps you should take to keep it clean and operational.

[@shyman99]

For all of the grief people have given you for locking the slide to disassemble, your instruction was the only way I could get mine open. I watched a few other videos first and hurt my fingers, my wrist, and my pride. So thanks for this tip.

[@clam741]

shyman99 hickok 45 right here on KZbin , he’s the Glock master and really good shooter . He will show u everything u need to know

[@joeluv1635]

You don't have to lock it back to disassemble the weapon. You are the only person I have ever seen do that on a Glock.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for the heads up. I'll keep that in mind going forward.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for the info! Just what ive always done.

[@glockguy3893]

Was thinking the same thing.

[@hiquanmistry9515]

Me too I have never seen that method before ...the more you research the more you learn

[@CharlieTheTexan]

Fr0styFire has a video where he shows what I think to be probably the best way to disassemble the G19.

[@laserone5627]

i see that lots of people have something to say about the way you are cleaning your gun but what works for you its what works for you. same people tell you what guns too get or buy but again what works for you. good video

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks and I fully agree.

[@brunomarslover14]

Definitely agree!

[@flexxskins]

Worse cleaning job on a Glock I’ve ever seen. But, like you said over and over again, you’re not sitting there for hours until you get white q-tips. And you’re satisfied and that’s what’s important.

[@talubehnjie672]

You just taught me how to take apart my piece and clean it. Thanks men!!!

[@mialucasworld7950]

Thank you very much for this video! I am a first time gun owner and wanted to clean it for the first time properly. This helped tremendously!!! Liked!

[@jamesarness4692]

You might want to check out the Hickok45 video on Glock cleaning. Quite a contrast.

[@2LonelyPlanet]

Hickok45 has a better method. This guy likes to use so much oil

[@bobdufrane3880]

Good video for a novice like me. Followed you all the way thru with no trouble.

[@bengerman9736]

Interesting to see what the gravy in the works looks like!!

[@rjayorion]

Man straight armor all the gun!!! Just like my tires nice and shiny!!

[@belangerpw1]

Do you have to clean the glock 19 gen 4 magazines also?

[@lonestarlady5980]

I just purchased this gun and this was very helpful. Thanks!

[@kzoll3546]

I remember gopher guts, our cousin taught us the song when we were very young. My mom was horrified😂

[@PeterHyatt]

Thanks for making it so simple. Good communicator.

[@NitrousFox]

Quick question, I just recently got into firearms and was wondering, is there anywhere in the gun that should NOT be oiled?

[@ltn4434]

The only thing I touch with CLP is the inside of the barrel, Barely touch the edges of the lower were the slide slides. Mabie a drop right above were the serial number is. And every now in then not often I put like a drop were the trigger meets the lower like glock says to do. And then just scrub the rest with a clean dry tooth brush or cleaning prush, wipe dirt out with a gun rag and mabie a Q tip but make sure no cotton gets left in the gun. And then i clean the inside of the barrel but I wipe down everything and make sure everything is dry before I re assemble

[@Xx-ru3ng]

Great video. First time cleaning im g19g4.

[@syedashah7895]

Good job

[@edwardleonen1442]

That also can help avoid rust

[@nateoh5133]

i understand that read the manual it will give you best info for oiling

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Ok. Thanks

[@CWB1863]

I recommend cleaning the extractor claw and the breach face as well.Both get very dirty, even after 200 rounds.Just my two cents.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for the feedback. I appreciate it.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for the comment!

[@Firearms101]

I can never understand why people take an extremely dirty brush to a dirty firearm to start cleaning it. That's a head scratcher. And never ever clean through the muzzle end.

[@Firearms101]

@xxx CHOPPER rule of thumb so not to damage in anyway!

[@bldlightpainting]

Actually, no, the best way to disassemble a Glock pistol is to simply pull the slide back about 1/8", just enough to release the pressure on the slide lock as you're pulling it down, then the slide will come right off the frame, after you've pulled the trigger of course.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for your opinion.

[@tr9165]

the way he did it i find easier

[@Boris_Taran]

This guy cleans his Glock just as a "Guy next door", in many different points of this video.

[@teresabrasch149]

Yes we use greasy grim and gopher guts up here in Sudbury - Ontario - Canada. Lol

[@gele1256]

great video thank you so much

[@LVang152]

I notice that Winchester and Remington ammo are burn dirty. I have CCI Blazer Brass. I use 9mm caliber

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Interesting observation. I'll keep that in mind.

[@Peter_M]

Nice example how NOT to clean GLOCK :D

[@EJProductionsLLC]

😂😂😂

[@joonkim4282]

Liked and subscribed. I have a question when you just bought glock 19 gen 4 , do you have to clean inside first before first shoot? Or you don’t have to clean brand new gun just clean later.

[@arkamasylum8977]

You do NOT need to clean before you shoot it your first time. All glocks come clean and pre lubricated. When you 1st make sure your pistol is safe and clear, disassembled, you will see a gold like substance withing the slide. That is the factory lube glock uses. Cherish it and enjoy your first time shooting safely. After a few magazines have gone through, then you may clean it. Personally I use Remoil (Remington oil) brand for my lubricant. Hope this helps.

[@garageguy879]

The myth that too much oil on a Glock causes problems has been busted long ago.Everyone has their own way of cleaning.I say do what you feel the need to do.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Yeah, that's my philosophy on the cleaning too. My Glocks are all still firing just fine.

[@deasttn]

I concur. My gun is for self defense. It is a 12+1. I do not anticipate a huge amount of carbon buildup with 13 rounds.

[@bldlightpainting]

Please remember, Glock pistols need very little lubrication if any.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I'd rather error on the side of "too much".

[@BiG__Disgruntled]

Yes, I've actually heard ad nauseam that too much or even a normal amount of lubricant can cause issues in Glocks.

[@IEO_WS]

Love gun Love Glock

[@mkaz411]

You might want to be careful not to get any oil in the striker channel, on the striker assembly itself and also the plunger. Block recommends to keep these clean, but oil free so that they don't collect dirt which could cause a failure.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks for the feedback.

[@dougholst5724]

Dude got 102K views for acting a fool. Good job. Don't clean a pistol like this dude shows.

[@tr9165]

how is he acting a fool?

[@13AnonymousAnonymous13]

I love it bro

[@bluefalcon3361]

Thank you for the video brother.

[@diantepierre-louis8650]

Where did you buy that cleaning kit

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Amazon

[@zanetrain4779]

Thank you my guy

[@curtisbarlow9359]

It’s SO BAD if you put too much oil on it. The debris (such as gun powder) will get stuck to the excess oil and can cause your gun to jam. You DEFINITELY SHOULD NOT follow the oiling technique this guy is doing. You should also clean the spring. You don’t really need to oil it but more so brush it to get any powder etc off of it. If you do decide to use oil on it use A LITTLE lol

[@ashleysmith7275]

Thanks for the video. Gopher guts, haven't heard that in awhile lol

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I wanted to go old school lol

[@nateoh5133]

I think you should read the user manual on cleaning and how much oil to use it says like 3 drops for entire gun is more than enough glocks are ment to run on next to no oil for real read manual you just assaulted that pore gun with oil

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I've heard stories about not letting them get too dry, so I'd want to error on the side of caution with the oil.

[@neozeonsolid]

too much oil causes more carbon buildup

[@MrKitty-zv3dl]

Don't use this method of cleaning! All that oil is going into the firing pin channel, oil attracts dirt, unburned powder and brass shavings. The debris turn to sludge that WILL slow your firing pin giving you light primer strikes (dud rounds) or it will hang up completely. You should take apart your slide every now and then for maintenance, you wouldn't believe the brass left behind. The better way to clean your slide? Baby wipes, I shit you not. Then a drop of oil on each rail and one on the slide where barrel rests. Clean the barrel first in the sink with hot tap water, dish soap and bore brush. You'll get 90% of the crap out then finish it off with clp and patches.

[@richardmingace6494]

Your gun is so dirty because its soaked in a bottle of lube, the excess lube creates collection points for dirt and dust. Good video but save some lubricant for the rest of us!

[@randybrickson4290]

how often should I clean? I shoot 100 rounds per week, or 5,000 rounds per year. Is once a month okay?

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I'd say twice a year should suffice.

[@vanessadenison8313]

Thank you!

[@fernandonieves7063]

i can lubricate inside the cannon right? and de sprin do not need to lubricate??

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I'd say lubricate it as much as you feel is needed. I mean don't make a total mess, but I'm not shy about it.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Correct

[@skionen1781]

He’s using reverse psychology on how to clean a Glock especially how to take the gun apart he start by locking the slide back pull down the tabs 😂

[@pringlw]

Wow that’s way more oil than I use on a Glock.

[@dannywilson3428]

Hey thanks for the video. First time owner here and it was very informative.

[@charlesmartel4794]

There is no wife, no girlfriend no shared home no kids there is only glock now.

[@nextuplevelup4119]

I’m convinced he’s doing everything wrong on purpose

[@skionen1781]

He’s using reverse psychology on how to clean a Glock even taking the gun apart locking the slide back lol

[@lordkrythic6246]

What about WD-40?

[@deasttn]

Good to use if you wash your gun with water and soap.

[@taswey6556]

Change video name to how not to clean a glock

[@havefun1155]

More like how to lube your gun

[@MrRicholive]

wrong way with brush through barrel …..it's breach out to muzzle

[@gelostaten4729]

Pretty cool but you know a lot of oil

[@mikecolosky8982]

Way too much lube, Glocks don't require a lot

[@Lets-Crusade-1095]

We say that in Indiana too lol

[@ANHON888]

Too much lube for a glock imo. Youre using a lot of product as well.

[@ClayTraderGuns]

I'd rather error on the side of "too much" than "too little", but I'm all for using less product, so thanks!

[@diantepierre-louis8650]

That some good cleaning

[@ClayTraderGuns]

Thanks.

[@TheHoustonHustler]

toooooooo muuuuuuchhhhhh oillllllllll! :(

[@arkamasylum8977]

Too much oil. Glock recommends the MINIMAL amount of oil. It goes in 4 tiny spots. Too much oil will cause the opposite effect in the terms that it will trap and hold MORE dirt/debris. And if using a solvent/oil mixture, really NOT a good idea to get on a polymer frame. Just saying. No it won't melt the frame, but not good neither. You wouldn't armor all your steering wheel for obvious reasons, same concept for the pistol you need to have a good grip on. Hicock or glock site itself for manufacture specific cleaning instructions. Nice video, but not accurate.

[@benb6801]

My glock don’t fire if it’s dirty

[@stjohn2201]

Hahaha no way. Don’t listen to this guy. Lmfao!!!

[@FabioAmar100]

Squeaky Greasy kkk

[@desmonduckworth1]

Wow...doing to much

[@manueltr145]

muy mal la limpia con mucho aceite. much oil error !! 👎

[@ClayTraderGuns]

No hablo espanol.

[@kurtis954]

Horrible example, p.s. don’t shoot your eye out !

[@cayero]

Really? I just put my Glock in the dishwasher. Works pretty good!

[@cayero]

Just make sure you remove the hollow points though

[@VegasX900]

Do not follow any advice on this video. The dude doesn't know what he is doing and should not be handling firearms.

[@Charlie_Bmore]
