TM Glock 17 slide stuck

juicy · April 30th, 2010, 10:29

Problem appears to be that the hammer dropped while the slide was racked back. As a result, the slide is stuck and refuses to return to battery on it's own. Looks like the hammer bearing thing is caught on the BBU... but from further reading, apparently KSC's have the same problem when the recoil guide rod is installed incorrectly.

Is this a common problem, any suggestions to fix this problem, and can someone confirm that my diagnosis is correct? Help with any of those three would be awesome.

Actually, I figured it out. Disconnector part looked like it was pushing into the BBU prematurely. I just confirmed that this is the problem. Solution is to take something and push down on the little black stub that is the disconnector. If you're pointing the muzzle away from you, the disconnector is on the right side of the frame, next to the hammer.

Could this be an issue of this Glock being brand new? It seems as if the disconnector is a little stiff. Could this be an issue of me needing one of those Guarder steel trigger bars? I'm not too sure, as I'm not 100% familiar with the inner working of Glock's yet.

Could this part here (click for link) do the trick for the trigger lever getting stuck under the BBU?

So... what does the Guarder Trigger Lever Bar for TM G17's actually repair anyway? Ehobby mentions something about "solves stuck problem", so I was thinking that my trigger bar + BBU getting stuck on each other-issue isn't uncommon... C'mon, there's gotta be someone that knows this stuff?

So... Guarder Trigger Lever Bar thing? Any ideas if that'll help fix my problem or not?

juicy · May 11th, 2010, 00:05

"Steel work, Hardness, solve original slipped problem" is what Ehobby says in the item description... therefore... would this help?

Can't help but it has to be said about this thread, LOL I can't belive nobody's even posted a useless "that sucks man".

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA... thanks for making me get my morning laugh in, Angelus. Now, I'll go sulk in the corner because no one cares about juicy and his new Glock...

hey Juicy, I had the same problem with my TM G17..

I posted a while back about this. I'll see if I can dig it up.
But yes, Guarder Steel Trigger Bar did the trick!

Hell yes! Just the answer I was looking for! A link would be nice, but it probably won't matter as that order will be going out ASAP.

Thanks a bundle, Szetor.

I Just had the same problem the Nub on the trigger bar wants to bend, so it gets caught. If you don't have the Guarder bar yet just bend it the opposite direction a bit that will fix it for now.

juicy · May 15th, 2010, 05:23

Sort of. With more than 2 hours of fiddling, I could have probably gotten it to work (not to mention the right pliers... grr). It would work for half a mag, then it wouldn't. I'm about to put in an order for the Guarder part, but thanks for the advice, Halo.

weird, I had two tm glocks, i sold one. Still running the other into the ground. (I actually toss it a few feet onto the ground after im done firing to make sure she's getting beaten properly.)

Havent run into this issue yet....Maybe i need to throw it harder?

*EDIT I am brilliant, you haven't been throwing yours enough / at all? That may be your problem!

13Fido13 · May 15th, 2010, 22:57

I'm having the same issue. Mine's been properly beaten.... Let me know if the problem gets solved with that bar juicy...

HaloSix4 · May 15th, 2010, 23:23

got my Guarder Bar yesterday fixed it 100%, but the stock one worked for a while after just a bit of bending.
