That's excellent reading there. Thanks pops572

IF you don't mind and you get a chance could you please show us some up-close pictures of the underside of the slide and the guts of the frame ? Supposedly the frame's locking block is made different to be as strong as the 3 pin models.

I just got back from the Lifesavers Conference in Murfreesboro today. One of the venders was GT Distributers. The guy said that they are accepting orders for the Gen 5 and they will have them in stock soon. I am anxious to see how the new locking block is different from the one now. From 3 pins to 2 pins like the old Gen 2's , I'm excited.

Here's a top view

I just got mine done . Its totally like a new pistol since its a decock-only gun now and I don't have to worry about racking the slide and possibly putting it on safe. I never have accidently did that , but I like it better now. The newer right side lever is a few mm's longer but it's all worth it .

Look guys , enough of the Sig P320 jokes ,,,,, Lets just be adults and "DROP IT" LOL HAHAHA I couldn't resist

I just received my "G" conversion kit in the mail to convert my M9 into a decock-only pistol. Has anyone here bought and installed one ? Anything I should watch for or do ? I know that Mrgunsandgear and Mosinvirus have some excellent videos on this installation.

I've saw a lot of funny ones ! they rolling out like crazy

I'm still kicking myself in the butt for not buying a few HS2000's back in 1999 when they were $275.

I guess Glock has spoiled me on the simplicity of it's guns. I counted at least 7 pins in that XD-E from the side view of it on Springfield's website. I do like the idea of the gun but I just prefer a lot fewer parts.

I like the look of it with the flat dull gray but don't like the external extractor. I am old school I guess and like the old design . Does anyone know if it is series 70 or 80 ?

nevermind , delete , sorry

Two of Glock's perfect pistols. Generation 2 G17's with 2 pins .

I want a Steyr fullsize 9mm but cant afford it cause I got an Beretta APX only because I got the funds from selling my G30 to my son But I agree with you , the oddball pistols are kinda neat like the Canik TP9SF .

The striker deactivation button does not have to be pushed. just eject a magazine , pull the trigger (like on a Glock) and push in on the take-down lever and rotate it downwards like the M9/92FS.

I think mines a P0420

My Tacoma spoiled me. It has grease fittings all over the place. Every spring I would jack it up on blocks and grease all its fittings and change the transmission fluid and be good for the next year . I know that may be overdoing it but it sure makes them last long. The older Toyota I had before that one had 387,000 miles on it before a drunk destroyed it when he ran off the road and into my driveway.

yeah they still wear out but with grease fittings they still last a lot longer .

Thanks . I'll check them out with my engine and transmission configuration. I guess I just figured that if the stock one didn't have a grease fitting then the replaceable one didn't have one either.

Yeah I know of the needle attachment that goes on the grease gun but I just cant understand why a U-joint would be made without a grease fitting. This is a part that see's a lot of movement and action and needs a lot of lubrication.

Shes got 187,000 miles on her and man I swear she was terrible looking , just damn bad and rotted out. My mother-in-law owned her and she trashed her out. It took a month between my work days and days off to get her up and running. I replaced the fuel pump and fuel sending unit and lots more things. I got her running and now I have an engine code which shows a cat converter. I changed out all fluids , even the manual transmission which smoothed out shifts . It's unreal how people mistreat engines and machines. There was even moss , the green moss like carpet growing on the body and the bumpers of it. My mother-in-law smokes 4 packs a day so I had to strip the headliner out which made 80% of the smoke smell go away . Then I cleaned the rest out. I took out the seats and then now after a month it doesn't smell like cigarette smoke at all. THANK GOD ! With the headliner gone theres all kinds of mounting points for all kinds of things. Pretty neat !

I guess I didn't look into that much , but you think I can get new ones with grease fittings ?

I recently got a "beater" truck to use since I sold my other one to get out of debt completely doing the Dave Ramsey thing and all that . It's a 2001 Nissan Xterra and it's pretty much a truck with an SUV frame on it. It's rear wheel drive and has the driveshaft and all. It's been sitting on my mother-in-laws place for 4 years without being ran. I got it running and cleaned up. Now I am doing some preventative maintenance. It doesn't have any grease fittings on the universal joints. I have messed with a bunch of cars and trucks and most had grease fittings on the U-joints and double cardain joints. How would someone go about greasing these type joints to help them last longer ? They make no noise at all and seem fine but I want them to stay that way . I got up in there and sprayed some Ballistol in there last week until I find a proper way to grease them. I hate to wait for them to fail on the road , but I hate to go out and spend more money to buy new ones too.
