How To Disassemble The SDVE Slide

[@Baurakale777]

I just got another SD40VE, and I love that you put out videos of this quality and detail to help owners.

[@wildmonkiesJR]

Really straightforward and easy to understand video! Good job!

[@HoboBob]

Thanks for doing these guys! I put in one of your triggers, or correction I had a gun smith in Bismarck, North Dakota do it and the gun has never really fired correctly since. I'm going to try and fix it myself now.

[@guerohinojosa7143]

Hobo Bob did you fix it

The best way to remove the striker is to push down on the plunger, pull the striker toward the front of the slide and the back plate will come right out. There's absolutely no need to put a punch in there and pry on anything.

It would’ve been nice to have a link to the replacement parts

[@defvent]

So that's what all that stuff does. Cool.

Great improvement on the trigger pull but I’m getting light primer strikes about every 20rds, what should I check?

Apex- Suppose one follows this video but later does not replace the trigger spring, which is part of the SD spring kit. Is there any benefit to making the changes to the slide alone as depicted in this video?

[@rapid7263]

My pin is stuck I can’t push it through I had tapped it with a hammer and nothing by the way it looks it should slide right out any ideas?

[@darrenbreckler3926]

What is the part number for the spring? Cant find it on your webpage

[@apextactical]

107-120 is the SDVE Spring Kit, without the trigger.

1:09 how is that possible? 😮 i press down on the plastic part and that back plate won’t budge

[@doctorojos4951]

If you're trying to remove the back plate, use a punch tool or a small flathead screwdriver to move the plastic piece forward once doing so it will release the back plate.

My plastic sleeve is stuck help

Didn't even show removing or installing the slide. That's all I needed to know

[@apextactical]

That's outlined in your owner's manual.

If you have 1. I purchased mine from a private seller and it didn't come with it. Or I would've read it
