Titanium Skeletonized Striker Installation

[@MO-bo2du]

Lenny, just want to say your tendency to explain things in great detail is actually VERY helpful to people who are new / still learning. You give supplemental info that helps people learn how their weapons function. I’ve learned a lot watching your videos, and bookmark a ton of them to rewatch while I’m tinkering with my Glocks for the first time. Thanks! Cheers.

I put a lighter striker spring in my G17, that i compete with, and began to have a ton of light primer strikes. I couldnt find many reviews on this striker and whether or not it even works. I went ahead and ordered it in hopes it would solve my problem, but i wasnt sure at all that it would. Several months later and a few USPSA matches and im here to say this ABSOLUTELY WORKS! I have gone through nearly 1500 rounds with ZERO light primer strikes. Great product and well worth the money. I hope this helps anyone with the same issue, because i couldnt find any reviews to aid my decision.

[@Chaddybb81]

What pound lighter striker spring do you use? 4lb? 4.5lb? 2lb? I'm looking at getting one of these but I have the same skepticism about getting light primer strikes in my G34. Thanks

[@jeyjey5741]

@@Chaddybb81 the striker spring im running is 3.5lbs, its Zevs competition spring kit.

[@alexyu6928]

Replace the plastic channel liner with brass channel liner you will immediately feel the smoothness of the striker in action and also the striker will hit harder too because of less friction and the perfect dimension and roundness of the brass channel liner. The brass channel liner is installed and removed without using any tool it slides right in and out. I have the brass striker in my G34 and G26 and I couldn't be happier.

[@porkchopspapi5757]

Johnny Glock says to use 4.5lb.

Thank you this is what i need

I will say I know this video is old but I just did the pyramid trigger kit for gen 3 Gloc 19 that comes with the skeletonized striker and I will tell you my Gloc has never been better that that kit and with over 1000 rounds on it and zero fails!!! Best upgrade for a Gloc

[@scruz7659]

[@USARightPatriot1]

I just bought a 43x and only put maybe 130 rounds through it and have had maybe 5 misfires. I know it can happen with it so the first thought I had was its time to replace the firing pin for this one.

I don’t know how the hell this dude can turn a 5 minute video into half an hour. Says a lot without saying anything.

[@harlandvaught1177]

I really do thank you for the video knowledge I did not know I could take my Stryker pinout without breaking the gun all the way down and reloading the spring trick because I love cleaning my guns as well and I am looking forward into ordering the gold Striker because I am a Pittsburgh Steelers fan as well as double 007 fan one shot kill golden gun in my case Golden Striker lol and again thank you for all your videos they are very helpful thank you

I just received one for my Glock 21 Gen 4, the pin at the end of the striker is too large and will not protrude through the Breach Face

[@jasonstocks6460]

Its a glock for Christ's sakes. Glocks don't need a different striker. Glock strikers has no issues and don't fail.

[@joeypetrosky9821]

Did you ever make a coated spacer sleeve and coated spring cups yet redoing all my plastic parts thanks

[@nolver53]

There is nothing wrong with the factory striker. You could give it a mirror polishing yourself and that helps lighten it up a bit. I polished the striker and trigger bar on my Glock 22, and it shoots great. I've put nearly 2000 rounds through it in the 12 years I have owned it. Other than the fiber-optic sights and Lone Wolf barrel, everything is stock and it works great. Costs a hell of a lot less than spending upwards of $100 on a new striker. If you are spending hundreds of dollars on strikers, fancy trigger bars, new connectors, titanium this and that just to make your Glock "better"; then the problem likely isn't your Glock, its you.

[@bc_usa]

People don't always upgrade their Glock to make it work better. They do it as a hobby like I do so chill bro..you are the problem.

[@nolver53]

Wtf 2000 rounds in 12 years?! I bought my first Glock a couple months ago and I’m on 2000 rounds. 😂 maybe I’m bored

[@michaelbytner9346]

Do you have also Platinum Skeletonized Striker with Swarovski Diamont Tip?

[@adriancajanding3248]

Any physics behind this? Has it been really tested that the skeletonized striker moves faster than the one with a bit of mass. Or it depends on spring? Mechanism. Just want to know. Not insinuating anything. I actually considering buying one.

[@rdean45acp]

Use the back of your slide that works better getting the spring cups off.

[@_Delta_P_]

in my glock 44 i was told I should replace that spacer sleeve with a metal one. should I do that for my glock 34? I think the 44 has a much smaller striker and it dents into the plastic.

[@Wardaddy1124]

Wow that looks easy I love your knowledge

[@100octane2]

If the wieght difference makes it faster you should make a kit with a lighter spring that would achieve oem speed but could lighten the trigger

[@12123mohamed]

It’s called the competition spring kit LMAO

my firing pin broke in 2 places in less than a week. also do i get a family discount Mr Magill?

Damn bro make a video on it

[@TheOnlyPlanetJupiter]

Been calling the store no answer for last 30days. With the extended tip in a Glock 29 10mm can I use a 2lb spring and not worry about light strikes since the tips extended? Or what’s the lowest weight spring I can get away with on the glock29 10mm

[@mickyashey9818]

Call me a stickler for complicating things, but I’ve always been under the impression the correct name for it is FIRING PIN STRIKER since it’s a Firing Pin which Strikes the primer, hence term light strikes?

[@CA.0verview]

I would like one now, also Mr. Magill what striker # spring would you recommend for carry/duty ?

[@jjcruz17]

cant say i had a great experience with titanium skeletonized strikers- they dont hold up well and had 2 break on me from dry firing. just get an oem one it'll last longer.

[@randysmith7040]

I like it. Question though , where dose the extra length come from at the tip of the stricker? Is the beefy part cut back or overall longer ?

[@Humbler32]

What spring would you recommend in conjunction with it would you recommend for shooting +P Duty Ammo? How Light from stock would you recommend before you start seeing mishaps like squibs, double feeds, & stove pipes? Also I’m running an Apex Arms trigger.

[@timewing4611]

Don’t waste your money on this. Mine snapped at the lug after 500 rounds. It wasn’t the tip…it was the back end of the striker.

I have a gen 3 glock 21 sf with the dpm recoil system. I'm thinking about adding a 6 lbs or 6.5 lbs striker spring on my factory striker pin...is this a bad idea?

[@foxspirit4554]

It's easier to wear down a spring that's to strong than it is to buy Two springs when you end up using only one. , ,. Gen 3 take mods well , u may just got to run with it to ease the parts together may take time but it's crazy enough it might just work 🦈🌊

Less weight in the slide too. You should have safety glasses on.

[@bishop2355]

Does anybody make metal spring cups instead of the plastic ones? If they were metal you could temporally magnetize them to stick to the striker making it easier to reassemble.

[@jimsmith2088]

Dumbest thing I have ever heard...it's easy as hell to put together why would you need it to be magnetized...? Stupid!

[@PkwyDrive13]

I put one in my custom 17/p80 build, when I pull the striker back, the safety plunger stays depressed instead of popping up like it should..?

"Built in lubricity"

[@theminion2771]

First thought----- WHY?

[@nolver53]

Agreed. See my comment above. All I have changed in my Glock 22 is I replaced the factory sights with fiber-optic sights and put in a Lone Wolf barrel. I dinged up my barrel really bad several years ago and the only barrel they had available at the gun show was the Lone Wolf barrels. Works great. These "upgrades" do have a purpose if you're building a showpiece that you're not going to shoot often. Gaston Glock designed the Glock pistol as is for a reason. Magill could sell glasses to a blind man.
