S&W EQUALIZER TEAR DOWN, OIL POINTS AND CLEANING!

[@iLoveJESUS2321]

I personally got this gun because I wanted that extra sense of safety because my one year old is constantly pulling and touching around me and it just makes me feel good knowing there’s 3 ways to stop anything from hurting him. And it actually shoots very well really like this gun

[@SamB-wg6uu]

Question brother , I just got my equalizer ts but keeps jamming on me any tips you can give me
Thanks

[@tybahza5643]

Apologies in advance if my advice is wrong, it could possibly be your grip

[@chriskent246]

Just bought mine and I love it. I honestly don't mind the grip safety. I've had it on another s&w. I get along with it well for sport/ range shooting. It fits my hand and my wife's hand well. All around for me, it's already my favorite.

[@dalegunter6700]

I bought an Equalizer a month ago. Perfect gun for my age and intended use. I appreciate you demonstration showing the correct method and amount of oil.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

It's a nice gun!!! Just shot it again today and it performs perfectly

[@TenOaksTexas]

Excellent video, thank you. Love my Equalizer, I'm an old woman and it's the only semi-auto I can rack.
Now I know how to take care of it. 🙂

[@feliperodriguez9591]

I'm 65 with artritis and Carpal tunnel, this my gun, I like the back strap for thee reason it makes my have a firm grip to be able to shoot and to rack it is so easy, great video my friend

[@e.g.flores2819]

Thanks for the video. I have the Equalizer and have shot many rounds and have not had any problems with the backstrap, as a matter of fact, most of the time i don't even know its there. Very easy to rack, the 3 mags are a plus.

[@edwardberthelette2700]

Just bought. Thanks for the help. First ckeaning have not shot yet. 😮

[@robinkincaid3549]

JEFF! The 9mm Equalizer is my first semi automatic hand gun. Your video was clear and precise, I field stripped, lubed and reassembled her all in one felt swoop thanks to you. I am a 66 year young small framed woman and I love this weapon. Just wanted to send you a big ole thanks?

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

And thank YOU for your support!! I'm glad I could help :) happy shooting!

[@tulioalopez]

Thank you, you made it easy for me. This firearm works for me do to my disability. Thank you again.

[@donaldnorth3714]

Fantastic video for a guy with nerve damage in my hands. I love my equalizer!

[@markhann9782]

Great video!

[@Debbie_T_FL]

I just purchased this. After shooting for 45 years It’s nearly impossible for me to lock the slides back anymore on the ones I’ve had for quite a while. I can lock the slide on this real easy, but I’m having trouble getting the slide off and on for cleaning without touching that grip safety. Still haven’t shot it yet. Hoping it will be easier once I put a couple hundred rounds through it. Thanks for the awesome video!

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

I should loosen up! I hope at least....thanks for the comment!

[@alyanadestiny692]

Just got an equalizer, thank you SOOO MUCH for the informational video.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

Thank you for the support! Happy shooting!

[@dovemounts8840]

Great video Jeff!

[@odiberzbn]

Great video, thank you so much 🙏❤️

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

@@odiberzbn I appreciate the support! Thank you my friend!

[@myrlkibbe4595]

Thank you, very detailed walk through!

[@grandparob41]

I own an Equalizer and I have installed a green laser and light along with my Holosun green dot. I'm not a fan of the back strap but I sure like my thumb safety. I'm an old man at the age of 71. I love Smith & Wesson.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

I do too!!! Trying to get my hands on the brand new M&P spec series 2.0

[@vancesmith4743]

Thank you so much for breaking this weapon down! I juse brought one of these and I needed to know the field striping and oilingg aspects of this weapon. I did not consider the bast strape safety when I brought it and I am concerned if I grip the gun right when I need it most. But I will get out of the range and learn it via muscle memory. Again, thank you for breaking this down for us.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

I appreciate the kind words!! The back strap safety isn't awful, just not something I'm really used to. It is a great gun though!!!

[@arthurboone9803]

I have arthritis and carpal tunnel, I found this is the easiest gun for me to use.
I appreciate the video, showing me how to clean it, been very helpful.
I do have a question, what was the last thing you used to wipe off the excess oil? I know you used to microfiber cloth with the white cloth at the end was that a Kleenex?

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

It was not, that is a special cloth used for wiping down lenses of microscopes. No scratches left behind or extra lint.
Any towel can be used though. It doesn't have to be anything special

[@arthurboone9803]

Thanks for getting back to me, I appreciate your response.
I picked up some cleaning products and now understand what I need to do.
Thanks again

[@victorblanco6368]

Then practice with it. Never failed me.

[@stevenrowe5047]

Great job explaining everything I had concerns about. Thank you.

[@dalehazard8016]

Great video. Very informative. I also have a Equalizer and do pretty much the same as you with the cleaning and oiling. I also agree with you that I don't like the back strap safety either. I keep searching RUclips to see if someone has posted a video on how to completely strip the slide and the frame just to see if there is any way to remove or disengage the back strap safety. So far, no luck with that.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

Unfortunately I doubt you'll find that ... since it's a safety thing, RUclips would take that down in SECONDS...it's the world we live in now...

[@Ajbco58]

Most all Smith and Wesson handguns I know you have to use a tool, There’s a little piece of metal on the inside once you pull the magazine back, push that lever down and forward, and you do not have to pull the trigger to remove the slide

[@user-xo9ce9ys7u]

Hey Jeff thanks and great job. Can you add a video on how to clean and oil the mag release. I have only had my equalizer 4 months and found mine sticking.

[@PhatboyHD88]

I got one love it..

[@juliahusby5911]

Love mine

[@mattschroeder3432]

thank you sir great explanation

[@shlama]

Wouldn’t the hoops 9 enough for everything? Why do you need the other oil for?

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

The oil is just a thicker application. If you shoot every day, or the gun doesn't sit around, the spray is fine. I like to use the oil for better protection. When it comes to cleaning your guns, it mainly is personal preference just keep them wet!

[@jimmyfrancis78]

Good stuff man.

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

Thanks for the support!

[@RiddledEnigma93]

So you got the 1 with only the 15 round mag, not the one with the 10, 13 & 15 round mags!~

[@MarkWilliams-lx9vy]

I know this video is several months old, But hopefully someone can answer. After disassembled would it hurt anything to spray I with Auto Brake Cleaner ?

[@jeffofalltrades8489]

I don't know why you would...I never tried that and not sure how the plastics would be effected by that. Brake cleaner is pretty abrasive.

[@sidneywhite749]

I am new to bore snakes, I assume it needs cleaning, how?

[@oneboyscout3653]
