- Glock Ges.m.b.H. limits owner disassembly: Field strip only: slide, recoil spring assembly, barrel and frame.
- This work order is written for the Glock 17 Gen5. It is reported to cover Glock 19 Gen5; Glock 26 Gen5; Glock 34 Gen5; Glock 45; Glock 47; Most Gen3 and Gen4 Glock pistols (the field strip is identical; internal parts differ) — if the firearm on the bench is one of those, check the torque notes: values do not always carry over.
Shop difficulty: Tier 1 of 3
About 35 line items in GLOCK's Gen5 list including the magazine (no locking block pin); punch-only work. The only fiddly parts are the slide cover plate (spacer sleeve and bearing held down) and the small coil spring on the Gen5 ambidextrous slide stop lever. Same platform as the Glock 19 (the reference Tier 1 pistol). 35 parts (Complete pistol incl. magazine; the parts list on this page = GLOCK's p. 48 list with the G17 Gen5 drawing (items 25 and 30 printed as --- and left out); 35 pieces). Pew-Takedown's rating, not the manufacturer's.
Bench time: strip ~15 min, rebuild ~20 min (estimate). Actual: strip ______ rebuild ______
Special tools:
- 3/32 in. (2.5 mm) pin punch / GLOCK disassembly tool — Trigger, housing and locking block pins, slide cover plate
- GLOCK front sight tool (3/16 in. hex nut driver) — Front sight screw
- Rear sight pusher (GLOCK rear sight mounting tool) — Dovetail rear sight
Watch for:
- The slide cover plate only goes back on if the firing pin spacer sleeve and the spring-loaded bearing are both held depressed while the plate is pushed up; on removal the internal parts come out under spring tension. (both; GLOCK Ges.m.b.H. (scan hosted on archive.org))
- The spring-loaded slide stop lever has to be held forward in its recess while the trigger pin is pushed through it, the one place a Glock asks for a part held under tension while a pin goes in. (reassembly; GLOCK Ges.m.b.H. (scan hosted on archive.org))
- The Gen5 ambidextrous slide stop lever carries a tiny coil spring that dislodges easily and is hard to put back, which means pulling the trigger pin and locking block again. (reassembly; SIGforum)
- The slide-lock spring has to be held with pliers or a hemostat and oriented (hump to the rear) while it goes into the frame, and the frame pins must go in a particular order. (reassembly; Shooting Illustrated (NRA))
- Sights are part of the job on a coated slide: the front sight needs a hex nut driver (GLOCK front sight tool) and the rear sight a sight pusher. (both; Apex Gunsmithing)
Tools
- Glock armorer's punch (3/32 in / 2.4 mm) — Detail strip only. Not needed for field stripping.
1. Clear and make safe
- Point the muzzle in a safe direction and keep your finger off the trigger.
Warning: Keep the muzzle in a safe direction for the entire procedure, not just this step. - Press the magazine release and remove the magazine. Set it aside, away from the work area.
- Retract the slide fully to eject any chambered round, and lock it open using the slide stop lever.
- Look into the chamber and the magazine well. Confirm both are empty.
Tip: Good light matters. A phone flashlight into the ejection port is worth the two seconds. - Insert a finger into the chamber and physically feel that it is empty.
Warning: Do not skip the physical check. Brass in a dim chamber can look like an empty chamber. - Remove all live ammunition from your work surface before continuing.
2. Disassemble
Field Strip
- Complete the Clear and Make Safe procedure, and put on safety glasses.
Warning: The manual requires safety glasses when disassembling — components are under spring pressure. - Release the slide to the forward position, either by pressing the slide stop lever down or by pulling the slide fully back and releasing it.
- With the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, pull the trigger. The trigger must be in its rearmost position for the slide to come off.
Warning: Verify the chamber is empty before this step. If the trigger is in the forward position, the pistol may be loaded. - Hold the pistol with your firing hand, fingers across the top of the rear of the slide in front of the rear sight and thumb on the rear of the frame.
- Using your fingers, retract the slide about 1/8 in (3 mm) and hold it there.
Tip: Pull it too far and the trigger resets to the forward position. If that happens, pull the trigger again with the muzzle in a safe direction and start over. - Using the thumb and index finger of your non-firing hand, pull the slide lock down evenly on both sides.
- While holding the slide lock down, push the slide forward and off the frame.
- Press the recoil spring assembly toward the front (muzzle end) of the slide while pulling it up to remove it.
Warning: It is under spring tension. Keep control of it. - Holding the barrel by the barrel locking cams, lift it and push it toward the front of the slide, then pull it up and toward the rear to remove it.
Tip: Forward first, then up and rearward. It does not simply lift out.
Detail Strip — Slide
- Field strip the pistol and set the frame, barrel, and recoil spring assembly aside.
- Hold the slide upside down. Use a punch to press the spacer sleeve (the striker assembly's rear post) forward and down, away from the slide cover plate.
Tip: The parts behind the cover plate are spring-loaded. Keep a thumb over the plate as you slide it. - Slide the slide cover plate downward and off while keeping the spring-loaded parts contained with your thumb.
Warning: The spring-loaded bearing and extractor depressor plunger assembly sit directly behind this plate and will launch if released. Do this in a clear area, ideally inside a clear bag, and wear eye protection. - Remove the spring-loaded bearing and the extractor depressor plunger assembly from the rear of the slide.
- Tip the slide and remove the striker (firing pin) assembly out of the rear of the slide.
- Press the firing pin safety plunger down from inside the slide and remove it and its spring.
- Tip the extractor out of its cut in the slide.
3. Refinish
The components the procedures above separate. Coating, masking and cure are outside this database; follow your coating system's instructions. A part the manufacturer marks "factory fit" should not be swapped or reworked.

The manufacturer's full parts list (35 parts) is on the reference page.
4. Reassemble
Detail Strip — Slide
- Reassemble in reverse order. Confirm the extractor moves freely and the firing pin safety plunger springs back up before reinstalling the cover plate.
Warning: If the firing pin safety does not return under spring pressure, do not reassemble the pistol. That safety is what prevents the striker from moving forward if the pistol is dropped.
Reassembly
- Hold the slide upside down, insert the barrel, and seat it fully by its locking cams.
- Insert one end of the recoil spring assembly into the slide and press the other end toward the front of the slide to compress the spring, pushing down until the large end rests in the second, semi-circular notch on the barrel locking cams.
Tip: The second semi-circular notch on the locking cams is the seat. If the assembly keeps popping out, it is not in that notch. - Holding the frame in your firing hand with your finger off the trigger and outside the trigger guard, place the slide on top of the frame in front of the slide rails.
- Push the slide toward the back of the frame until the slide lock snaps up and locks the slide into place.
Warning: Do not hold the slide lock down during reassembly. It snaps up on its own. - Release the slide and let it run forward into battery, then perform the function check.

Field strip; place slide flat. Remove the GLOCK cover plate (the removed screws should not be used for fixing the adapter plates). Select the plate, markings facing up. Tighten the 2 screws (the set's M3x6 Torx screws, which come with a drop of glue applied). 'Make sure to use only these screws for fixing the adapter plates.' Verify tightness of the screws depending on ammunition and frequency of use; if you often screw on and unscrew, apply another drop of threadlocking adhesive to the screw threads. Threadlocker: Screws come with drop of glue applied; re-apply a drop of threadlocking type adhesive if screws are often removed |

Fit or check on rebuild
- Slide stop lever spring tension — If the lever went in without tension (pin order wrong) the slide can lock back early
- Front sight screw tightened snug, not over-tightened — The small screw breaks if over-tightened
- Sight position / re-zero — Drift or pressed sights moved for coating shift point of impact unless witness-marked and returned to the same spot
- Full function check (trigger reset, safeties, slide lock-back, drop of striker/hammer only on trigger) — Standard after any fire-control strip; confirms springs and sears went back correctly
6. Function check
- Confirm the pistol is unloaded with no magazine inserted before each test.
- TRIGGER SAFETY TEST: with the trigger safety not depressed, the safety should prevent rearward movement of the trigger and the pistol should not dry fire.
- TRIGGER RESET TEST: with the muzzle in a safe direction, pull the trigger — you should hear and feel the firing pin release. Hold the trigger back, rack the slide, then release the trigger; it should reset to its forward position. Repeat this several times.
- SLIDE LOCK-OPEN TEST: insert an empty magazine, pull the slide fully to the rear, and confirm the slide locks open. Repeat with each of your magazines.
- With the slide in battery, push forward firmly on the muzzle. The pistol must not fire out of battery.
- Confirm the magazine drops free when the release is pressed.
If any check fails, the firearm is not safe to fire. Stop and see a licensed gunsmith.
