much simpler than the video i watched, they had me manually push the pin down inside the gun instead of just hitting the trigger to release it. appreciate the tip
much appreciated!
They don't recommend you pull the trigger. That internal sear deactivation lever actually fell out on me when I tried to reasseble it. Added/unnecessary complexity that has me running back to Glock.
I saw that video! That's why I am here. This man is great!
The newest Shield Plus guns (got mine end of February) don't have that little yellow pin/lever, whatever, to move anywhere.
The maintenance schedule at the beginning of this video is awesome! Thanks for that.
You bet! They don't need quite the amount of maintenance we were lead to believe growing up. I think dad just liked getting the free labor out of it. You can always do it more than that but a good field strip, dry brush, wipe down and oiling should do the trick!
Most effective tutorial for disassembling/reassembling a Shield I have seen. He uses a flashlight that focuses on parts of the firearm he is talking about. Then, he provides verbal repetitions to give the beginner a realistic sense of how much force to use that guarantees a smooth reassembly. Clear, excellent speaking voice that doesn’t talk down to the the listener. Look forward to more content from you, Sir!
thank you for the kind words, we're thrilled so many people are getting use out of the content 👍
A toothbrush and a barrel swab do an excellent job with a few dabs of oil. A 👍to all manufacturers that keep disassembly, cleaning, and assembly so quick and easy.
Nice video. Simple and concise. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!
It was like you were in the room with me. You are a great teacher. Thanks from a real nubie.
My pleasure!
Fantastic tutorial 👍🏻 I’ve watched several and this one is by far the best thanks !
Glad it was helpful!
Best instruction with highlight points! Thanks so much! Liked and subscribed!
Appreciate it!
Thank you for the clear explanation
Easy to follow, well explained.
thank you!
Excellent tutorial. Thanks 👍🏼
You're welcome!
Great Video! The best explanation of field stripping and assembly.
Thank you. Very well explained with simplicity
Excellent video! Very clear and easy to understand. I had a lot of questions and worries the first time I cleaned my gun because I was here by myself with no one to confirm I was doing everything correctly. Wish I'd seen your video back then!
Glad you found it, let us know if we can help with anything else!
Absolutely the best how to!!!! Thank you
You're welcome! Glad you liked it
Excellent video, please keep up the great work 👍 👏
Thanks a lot!
You are awesome!! Thank you for this!!
you bet!
Forgot very important step of pushing the pin down b4 pushing the slide back ! Essential !!!
Comparable to the Springfield xd field strip. Perfect…thnx👍🏼
Yep, super similar mechanics on both. Lots of the manufacturers go with either this style or the glock-style takedown tab method. If you can identify which type you're working with you can figure out 80+% of modern firearms. 1911s are their own beast of course lol
Very great video!
thank you much!

Nice looking handgun,
Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
you're welcome
Thank you for the excellent video
our pleasure!
Just bought one of these and put thirty or so rounds through, great shooting gun, feels really well in the hand especially for being a compact pistol. However when I got it home and did this exact field strip, that locked slide spring separated sending part of it into my stomach and the heavier part right into my tv!!! I haven't contacted SW on this yet but I felt the need to bring attention that you shouldn't trust that spring to stay together I winched in pain when you just kinda dropped it on the table, but yeah, great take down video
Appreciate the heads up!
Gun looks something I would buy than a Glock. I’ve own an SD40ve but I sold it, for my CZ P10 F45.
You know S&W actually designed this pistol with that sear deactivation lever exactly for the reason that you wouldn't need to pull the trigger to disassemble?
Suggesting an alternative to pulling the trigger (~2:10) to remove the slide. There's a yellow/brass-tone sear deactivation lever near the top of the magwell (barely visible at ~2:16, best view at 6:10). With the slide locked back, pushing that lever down/forward will let one remove the slide without touching the trigger. The full size M&P comes with a tool in the backstrap, but you need a pen or small screwdriver for the Shield. Putting the magazine back in after reassembly resets the sear lever.
If you safety check the gun why not pull the trigger? Will that effect the gun in some way or is it based on safety?
@@brianthomas9445 safety. part of always treating a gun as loaded, pointed in a safe direction, only touching the trigger when you're ready to fire, etc.
@@michaelpeavy3074 👍
Maybe the most important step ! 😮
@@donaldbenson7384 Listen im all for safety but if im in my own home and know for certain my gun isnt loaded seeing as im taking it apart.... im pulling the trigger. trying to push that pin down without a tool is tough!
Great video thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
@cobaltfirearminstruction2003 now that I have a shield plus, this helped alot.
❤ awesome
Thanks!
Right to the point. Thank you!
you bet 👍
Great, great video but I do have a question. My Shield Plus is brand new and has not been fired yet. That take down lever, like you stated, is hard as hell to move. Can I add a little oil around that or inside when I have it torn down or will that cause other issues?
Thank you for such an informative video!
When i turn the takedown lever its very gritty feeling, audibly as well. Is that the interface with the spring or?
Why didn't you lower the sear disconnect as it states to do so in the manual?
I wish I had seen this video before. All of the ones I saw had this little yellow "thing" I had to move ... the new shield pluses don't.
Mine has the yellow thing…but when you pull the trigger for disassembly, you don’t need to mess with the yellow “thing.”
I have a brand new Shield Plus and the takedown lever is really stiff. What can I do?
the only thing I've found to help break them in is to use them. Both disassembling multiple times and shooting it a bunch. It'll never be butter soft easy but it will loosen up to something manageable in just a few trips to the range and take downs in my experience.
@@cobaltfirearminstruction2003 Thanks for the reply. That is what I thought. I was hoping there was an oil that I might use, but I will wait until I go to the range this weekend and then do a cleaning. Your videos are really great.
The plastic of the magazine broke when packing. I bought it 2 days ago unfortunately 👎🏻
