glock question

[dsrtuckteezy]

i just picked up a 3rd gen glock 30 for $220.

appears to be in perfect shape. is it normal for the trigger to not reset when the gun is not loaded? havent fired it yet.

[Moose242]

No, that is not normal.

hmm, i just watched a field strip video, and his trigger didnt reset when he was breaking it down.

No, that is not normal.

Welcome to Glock reliability.

Yes it sounds like its broke-------------don't listen to him he is predisposed.

Did you have the mag in it? ------ be safe----take bullets out first--!

[dsrtuckteezy]

it resets when i pull the slide back.

[Moose242]

It should reset and dry fire just fine.

it resets when i pull the slide back.

That is how the striker is cocked. Glocks are striker fired and the slide must recoil in order to cock the gun.

ok so this is normal for a glock. i'm just used to sigs and such resetting no matter what

thanks gents

Yeah, totally normal, rack the slide once, and you get one "click."

[dsrtuckteezy]

cool. i was a little worried at first. i think i got a hell of a deal on it.

[Trip McNeely]

Its not a double action so yes that is normal.

Rack slide

Pull trigger, hold trigger

Rack slide while holding trigger

Slowly let off trigger

Feel reset

^^ right. but i was thinking the trigger should at least come back forward like my xd40 did.

wierd glock thing i suppose.

Going from memory that's normal. Damn that's a good price!

Yeah, sounds normal. Super cheap! Worth at least 4 bills easy.
