This is a great video first off. Here’s a tip to getting the slide stop off a bit easier. In the video you are holding it in the up position with your pinky while also holding the punch at the same time. It is necessary to do this so you don’t damage the frame but you can just put in a mag to raise the slide stop while doing this. It essentially frees you from doing the awkward hang positioning of holding the punch while trying to keep the slide stop up with ur pinky.

Great install video, will definitely revisit this when I get my overwatch trigger for my q4 sf. Funny thing is I was over on overwatch precision's site last night and watched the ppq armorer's complete disassembly video. It totally overwhelmed me to the point I didn't complete the transaction. They really need to link to this video on their site.

Thank you! I was using a GoPro on a hat mount, actually, that I normally used for matches. On my latest videos I've been mixing in my iPhone 12 Pro Max with one of those smartphone tripod mount clamps that fits most phones. Now experimenting with a small ball head for some more adjustability, and some more home-brew mounting solutions for getting good top-down video that I hope to be able to share soon.

Harrison, good video but I have a question about the new trigger. I dont know if I am using the proper terms, so forgive me. Is the new trigger set at the same distance as the old trigger? In other words does it sit closer to the grip or same distance? I am sometimes position my hand slightly to the left of the back grip, which then my finger has to strain to take up the slack of the trigger. So I am hoping the new trigger sits closer to the grip.

I got a question. I recently purchased this pistol and was wondering if it’s recommended to put a very thin coating of gun oil on all the metal surfaces inside the frame itself, the manual recommends lubing a few certain points specifically but I didn’t know if I should be putting a light coat on the other surfaces to prevent rust. Such as the part on the frame that is below the barrel. Sorry if this is a dumb question.
@hdshooting17294 жыл бұрын
Hi Greg! I recommend only lubricating the points mentioned in the manual, as over lubrication will attract dirt, grime, carbon buildup and could impact reliability. The parts are all coated in some way shape or form to prevent rust. If you get them very wet I recommend disassembly and cleaning with an appropriate cleaner/protectant which you would then wipe off before reinstalling. I usually use Ballistol for that.

For a carry gun I don't like the fact that there's no pre-travel because then it doesn't allow me to prep the trigger as I'm pressing out without the pre-travel it would be very dangerous to press out while prepping the trigger and doing an accidental discharge

I guess I disagree with this, but a lot is personal preference. There are certainly great pistols out there for less money, but they all have their own feature set. I personally have run the polymer PPQ and loved it. I've shot my friends' Glocks and Caniks and Sigs. I personally prefer a full size steel framed gun for my competition use. So to me those less expensive options are not "Just as good".
