One thought. IF you are having trouble with the shells ejecting erratically, there is a fix. I noticed that in the video you are still using the original Gen3 ejector rod. If you replace this piece with the Gen4 ejector rod you may find as I did that the shells eject in a more uniform direction and pattern. Lone Wolf Dist. has this part for around $5.00. The part number is LWD-30274. You can order it by itself as Bare Ejector Rod. I appreciate the info on polishing the safety catch and trigger bar. Back to the workbench!
I purchased a registered P80 PF940V2 G17 size and polished the trigger bar and changed the firing pin spring and then my trigger became binary 🤯. Went back to the stock P80 firing pin spring and no more binary mode thank god. But i am getting ready to start some different P80 builds. So I’m scouring for videos and info on does and donts and solutions. So I thank you for your videos.
I watched your trigger rest video. I watched several before yours and all mentioned polishing as well as spring issue in slide. Your video is the 1 that helped fix issue. Thank you
Hey boss, I watched this video a few months ago for advice. It helped in my case, only now the striker firing pin sheered off so looks like I'll have to get another striker. Gotta love aftermarket MIM parts. Anyways, just came across this video again and wanted to make sure I said thanks, your video is the only reason I was able to figure out my trigger reset issue.
I've built 2 p80s so far just completed my 2nd one and on both of them I've had the exact same problem and it's the damn shark fin height.. I had to shave down both of my p80 fins.. and my 1st slide was from live free armory and my 2nd is leo precision Symmetry slide.. and both times I've purchased my lower and upper parts kit on ebay... never again..
The best thing anyone can do for their P 80s or Glocks is the Timnely trigger IMO. Unless a 3 lbs. trigger is to light. I have a lot of Glocks and 3 P 80s. All but one have the Timnely trigger and it a new P 80 that I haven't tried yet. Use the RED spring in the Timnely trigger kit, it will add a little pull weight but makes it much more reliable on the return. I haven't found the need to do anything to the Timnely trigger other than the Red spring. Also I had problems with the P 80 trigger housing, I use factory Glock trigger housing and found they work better for me.
@@JARG Thank You, I have 2 or 3 Gen 5s and the others are Gen 4s in the Glock line. If I remember right, the Timnely triggers are Gen specific as to Gen 3-4 and the Gen 5s. Again Thank You, P 80s can be a long learning curve as most have found out. I don't think many get them running right after building them. They seem to need to be tweaked on, some more than others lol. I know mine have had their fair share of failing.
Hey brother. I have a p80 glock26. It fires. It loads.I can cycle rounds just racking. They expell fine. But when I shoot it. It doesn’t expell on its own. I can rack it and shoot again. No problem.
I have a question for you. The trigger resets and it travels perfectly without any play, but it fails to engage it to be in the firing state (cocked) initially it didn't have this issue. Aside from it not cocking you wouldn't be able to feel a difference between this one and one not malfunctioning
Thanks, when I have a chance I'll tear it apart, so I need to bend the angle on the trigger bar? Also have you thought about doing any AR videos because I feel like you would be really through with explaining common issues and difficult steps in the building process that could help along of us out. I haven't started on my AR build yet but I've got a feeling it's gonna be a fun one
Great video. Hopefully this help with my current problems. P80 and lone wolf 80 Glock 19 clones. Fail to feed, stovepipes, slide gets stuck part way fwd after feed so I have to whack the back of the slide fwd. I was going to polish the ramps and slide rails, then apply more lube. I only ran 1 or 2 mags of rounds thru each, so I thought it could also be break in issues.
having a problem where the firearm in in battery one in the chamber . At this point if I try to rack the slide back to unload the round the slide will not come back unless I depress the trigger.????
How about on a Glock 43, trigger feels normal with no slide, I put the slide on, trigger resets, but if I press the trigger it’s just all mush and never trips. Then my slide is stuck on the lower and have to remove backplate. Happens 100% of the time
@@JARG with the slide off the trigger is able to break and reset, with the slide on the trigger will not break. So you think this too little engagement from the cross?
Do u think it’s my cross bar angle is my trigger only resets if I don’t have my finger pressing down on it if I do it won’t reset but I took my backplate off and manually pressed in the lug to across the cross bar and it’ll reset w pressure but with a backplate on nothing
That's what you sign up for when you build guns like this. It's just gonna happen every now and then no matter what, tolerance issues will always be a thing.
I have a problem with my p80 slide that I can't seem to find help for online. My slide cycles perfectly with no mag or with a mag, like butter. But if I put a round or snap cap in the mag and then rack the slide, once it resets and loads the round into the barrel and the slide goes all the way forward, it then locks onto something so the slide wont go back again. It's hitting something or whatnot and you have to muscle it as hard as u can for it to release and the slide will then be able to go back, eject the round, but when the slide spring returns it forward again, it's locking shut again. Take the round out and the slide can be racked back perfect. What can it be hitting? It's like the first eighth of an inch of travel back is locking
On the front locking block the cross member that connects both sides seems to have some scratches a little. But like I said, it only does this when the mag is loaded, works perfect unloaded.
My p-80 fires once and doesn’t shoot, I have to re rack it to get it to shoot, and jams again and yeah it literally a bolt action lol😊. Can you help me?
I’ve got the Alpha Timney Trigger in my P80 as well. I can’t get it to reset. Everything installed great. I actually followed your installation video. Any tips on getting the timney trigger to reset?? Thank you.
@@JARG i believe the trigger bar is rubbing slightly on the polymer frame. I haven’t got around to grinding any metal off the trigger bar yet but will definitely give that a try as I seen on one of your previous videos. Could this be this issue? It’s the only place I see friction.
I have identified all spots where there was friction and eliminated all of those spots. Trigger still not resetting. Any tips? When I try reset the trigger it releases the firing pin as if pulling the trigger.
Your videos are so helpful. Now I am having a "double tap" automatically. The first round fires perfectly and then when the trigger goes to reset a second round fires. Any ideas to fix?
My friends P80 worked great for a 100 rds. Then trigger froze. I helped him build, so I said I’d take a look. Removed slide to look and now it goes on but will not move pass normal resting place. Will not move. I hear it hitting metal. I took 100% of parts out and transferred to different lower and worked great. Put 2nd P80 parts in 1st lower, same think. Slide frozen. Sounds like lower, but holes are perfect and everything looks normal. I’m at a loss. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you, Joe
I have a problem with a p80 build that I hope you can help me with. I bought a ryg phantom trigger but it seems like the trigger is not far enough forward, the saftey blade on the trigger hangs up big time on the frame. Have you ever experienced this?
Any ideas on a Dead Trigger? After racking slide and then pulling trigger nothing happens.. I tried another Slide on lower and it functioned fine. Cannot seem to figure this one out..
Great info. Thanks! My P80-32 has an extremely mushy trigger. When pulling it, it goes all the way to the back, sometimes fires, sometimes not. When I release pressure and reapply pressure it usually fires. This is when dry firing, and when loaded (only tried one round). I have oiled it properly, and made sure the trigger bar isn't rubbing too hard on the frame. Any thoughts?
I have that mushy trigger as well, sometimes fire and sometimes not when dry firing. Took it to the range and it has a hang fire. Not sure how to fix it and can’t find any videos how to fix a hang fire
@@JARGNah I just fixed it on a printed frame like 12 hours ago after a couple hours of tinkering. I'm sure I'm late to the party but gotta mention it just in case.
I have a p80 slide on a Zev OZ9. Purchased an Apex trigger kit and if I rack the slide with the trigger firmly pressed, my trigger fails to reset, if I ever so slightly put some backwards pressure on the slide it releases the trigger and I get a reset. I have a feeling its #1 but I won't be bending it I'm going to try to take off some material from the top since it's so close to reseting on its own. I will report back.
My trigger resets everytime except during live fire. It ran more frequent as I fired it but even 300 rounds didn’t solve it. Also got light primer strikes and failure to return into battery. Could it all be one thing doing this?
When racking the slide, if I hold the trigger back, instead of resetting the trigger, it fires. If the trigger is released, the trigger will reset. Will the angle help me?
I have problem on part 30274 I attached it the gen 4 ejector on gen 3 g19 when I attached the slide doesn't wanna slide till end by ejector tip after metal any help plse any ideas?
I have a question my p80 19 fails to fire but when it does it still make a click is that lite primer strike is that dealing with the weight of the spring for the striker system and if so what would you recommend for the best reliable weight for the spring?
@@JARG I'm ordering that same striker system you recommend in the video tonight early morning tomorrow on my way to work it says 30 dollars for it and that guide rod in the other video I'ma get that as well
Trigger difficulty is either Shark fin Hitting safety plunger at wrong angle or trigger bar angle is too high and it never break/drops to fire. Or parts of the trigger is rubbing in the gun
Could anybody help me out with binary trigger not working/ not moving completely at all like it’s stuck unless it’s manually handled on myp80 handle. Help ?
hey so i'm having a problem with my p80 g26. When I rack the slide back the trigger doesn't reset at all unless i push it upwards and no matter how many times i do it it still won't reset. i can send some videos of it but im honestly dumbfounded by what to do. this is my first p80 so i know im going to run into some issues but i can't find any videos that are really having the same issue as me, but thank you if you can help me.
@@JARG Yes, it won't click or reset no matter how many times unless i manually push it forward. i could email a short video of me showcasing what it is but thats really it
I have a p80 I built and almost every time I rack the slide fast while holding the trigger down and then release the trigger to reset it it sounds like the firing pin fires and doesn't reset . I tried changing the spring and plunger it's better but still having the issue.
Your crossbar angle is off 100%. Means it’s not resetting til after firing pin is sitting on the safety. Your shark fin is activating the safety and a small strike forward happens
@@JARG Pull trigger back and nothing happens. With a Glock OEM slide it will go click. Normal function. Bought an aftermarket slide and I pull the trigger back nothing happens. I heard it described as a dead trigger. Goes back no engagement. Like I said the Glock 43x slide works fine the aftermarket one doesn't engage at all and trigger goes back.
Did you ever hear of the P80 Front Locking Block Pin Or Trigger Housing Pin causing trigger inconsistencies? I left it out altogether and it resets perfectly without it. Is it necessary if the G19 doesn’t have one?
@@JARG I will this afternoon, in the mean time have you ever had an issue with the slide lock spring not wanting to sit down flush in its slot. my spring has a slight curve on the end where it goes into the slide
Sounds like it’s slipping over the crossbar. If the pin is not holding the rear trigger housing down, the striker lug is catching the rear of the crossbar and it will then work. That is the best diagnosis I can do without knowing more
Can I please get some help with my issue on gst-9 build. When I dry fire the pistol the slide seems to move forward about 1/2 a mm. I have all glock oem components in both lower and slide. I noticed that the barrel seems to rest on the ejector? Is this how the mechanics are supposed to work? Doesn't seem right. If I remove recoil spring from slide and push back on barrel towards ejector, you can see where the ejector springs back some and the barrel will sit flush with slide until pressure is removed. With the gun assembled and the trigger in the back position (after firing of gun) the barrel is nice and snug as it should in the slide....as soon as I rack the slide and the trigger moves to the forward position that hairline gap appears again (between back of barrel and slide). I have tried switching out all slide internals with no luck. If I remove the slide internals (minus the firing pin) and re-install the slide no gap...re-rack and no gap...fire and no gap...I am lost on this. The only thing I can think of at this point is that the slide is slightly out of spec.
Watch my video on P80 Slide creep. I think I switched to the 20lb recoil spring. What weight is your current recoil spring? Also what weight is your current firing pin spring?
I’ve built like 6 or 7 P80’s at this point but I just did my first 10mm one and I’m running into an issue I’ve never experienced before and am not finding any solution online. When I pull the trigger I don’t get a “click” it just feels mushy and goes back into place when I let go. I haven’t tried live ammo yet just dry fire. I tried bending the trigger connector slightly as I saw that as a potential solution in a video but that didn’t change anything. Could it be that I need a stronger spring for the firing pin safety? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide, I’m pulling my hair out over here lol
Either the angle of your crossbar is too high in the rear and it’s not dropping to allow the the firing pin to go forward. See if you have high wear marks on striker lug Or your shark fin I hitting bottom of slide before the striker firings
I installed an apex trigger, and trigger bar. It functions perfectly. I went to install the apex ultimate safety plunger and when you hold the trigger for reset it automatically fires. Any thoughts?
@@JARG Thanks for the response. It only happens with the apex ultimate safety plunger. I just put the stock one back until I can figure out why it is doing that.
@@JARG I sent pictures of my frame and slide to apex. I reinstalled my oe safety plunger which works perfectly until I can figure out why the ultimate safety apex plunger is not working properly.
My Glock 23 slide won’t rack all the way with dummy rounds in whenever it’s racked back n extracts a round, the slide has to be pushed forward, any ideas?
@@bandzz.4036 I think it’s your connector or your cross bar angle is too high in the rear. You are pressing the sear into the striker lug but the sear never falls so the lug just pushes your trigger back forward from the weight of your striker spring
Hey Jarg, I have tried my hardest to get the timney trigger to function properly. I have installed and reinstalled at least 5 times. I'm getting failure to reset. I have tried both the red and silver return springs, but still getting the same issue. I am running a minus connector which I have polished. You mentioned you had to grind down the trigger bar for the timney, did you try sanding a few thou off of the frame instead of the bar? Also what were your failure to reset look like?
@@alexvu7686 when you pull the trigger, where is the friction. Something is holding your trigger The frame, connector, etc. where is the friction. Have the slide off and look at where your parts are rubbing
my trigger won’t reset unless i rack the slide twice, how do i fix that? what is the issue causing it to do that? the trigger bar kinda seems a bit high but i’m not sure if that’s the issue.
Help! My slide seems to behave, but my trigger just gets heavier and stiffer with every pull until it locks up. Then I have to rack it a bunch to get the trigger to brake.
@@JARG ha! With the Biden admin watching? No thanks. No disrespect though. I appreciate what you're doing. Also, fixed my prob with 220 grain paper and vegetable oil. 😉
Edit for: 🖕 CNN !!! 🖕 Also, round off the plunger and make sure the extra material is cut out really good in your dust cover where the recoil spring channel is in your P80. That's always a big issue. Great vid 👍
@@JARG but you don’t need heat at all to adjust the cross bar for sear engagement. Sooooo yeah it’s bad advice. The entire trigger bar is essentially a giant spring. Heat destroys springs. Last thing we need is to advise people to heat up their trigger bar potentially ruining the heat treat with a heat gun for example and eventually having a negligent discharge. Sorry but my recommendation is correct and better practice. Sorry you got so fucking butt hurt about it pussy haha. Jesus Christ…take some constructive criticism…essentially around ohhh I don’t know…the fucking structural integrity of a fucking trigger maybe? Douchebag haha
My p80 g26 if having problems feeding and ejecting the shell just stays inside it doesn’t come out could tell me what should I do to help fix that problem ?
For some reason my rwb mag works well with my p80 I have no problems to feed but with my gen 5 glock 19 mag every round gets stuck on the barrel feed ramp any idea how to fix this problem?
@@JARG I check out your failure to feed video and the same problem you were having I was so ima change out the recoil spring and see if that changes it. It's still werid the oem mag is the one I'm having trouble with but we'll see if this fixes it

Possibly back of your crossbar is a little to high. Or your connector is not correct and the crossbar bar is not dropping
Another thing: If the trigger bar is rubbing too hard on the side of the magwell it will stop the reset. Just sand it down and smooth it and itll go.

My trigger resets everytime except during live fire. It ran more frequent as I fired it but even 300 rounds didn’t solve it. Also got light primer strikes and failure to return into battery. Could it all be one thing doing this?
Liner the recoil spring. See #3 most common problems video on my channel
When racking the slide, if I hold the trigger back, instead of resetting the trigger, it fires. If the trigger is released, the trigger will reset. Will the angle help me?
Yes. Watch the run away gun video then watch the cross bar video in the description

Hey bro I’m having the same problem were you able to fix it if so let me know i would really appreciate it
@@angelledesma2596 you find out?
I have problem on part 30274 I attached it the gen 4 ejector on gen 3 g19 when I attached the slide doesn't wanna slide till end by ejector tip after metal any help plse any ideas?
Not understanding the problem
Sounds bent. Make a video and send link
Hey Guy, so I went to test my new GST-9 mod1 build, and it randomly shoots full auto or in 6 round Burts. Why do you think this would happen??
Your firing pin is slipping over the cross bar while your safety plunger is being depressed. Your crossbar angle is off
I have a question my p80 19 fails to fire but when it does it still make a click is that lite primer strike is that dealing with the weight of the spring for the striker system and if so what would you recommend for the best reliable weight for the spring?
Could be needing an extended firing pin. Spring 5-6lbs. I have several other videos. One is on slide creep and lite strikes
ruclips.net/video/2SOIS14tIq0/видео.html
@@JARG I'm ordering that same striker system you recommend in the video tonight early morning tomorrow on my way to work it says 30 dollars for it and that guide rod in the other video I'ma get that as well
@@dariusreynolds2431 where you ordering from
What is the name of it? I can’t find it
I need help why is my p80 trigger hard to pull and my slide wont slide all the way back im using OEM lower parts
Slide is possible that you have wrong gen barrel or your slide rails are bent. Try is on another frame to rule it out
Trigger difficulty is either Shark fin Hitting safety plunger at wrong angle or trigger bar angle is too high and it never break/drops to fire. Or parts of the trigger is rubbing in the gun
Could anybody help me out with binary trigger not working/ not moving completely at all like it’s stuck unless it’s manually handled on myp80 handle. Help ?
I wish but never used a binary
Hey, I have an issue with it not shooting where I aim, how can I zero in the gun?
Adjust the fixed sights
hey so i'm having a problem with my p80 g26. When I rack the slide back the trigger doesn't reset at all unless i push it upwards and no matter how many times i do it it still won't reset. i can send some videos of it but im honestly dumbfounded by what to do. this is my first p80 so i know im going to run into some issues but i can't find any videos that are really having the same issue as me, but thank you if you can help me.
Short like 15 seconds
So your trigger won’t reset unless you push it forward… is that right
@@JARG Yes, it won't click or reset no matter how many times unless i manually push it forward. i could email a short video of me showcasing what it is but thats really it
@@vanillatec529 justaregularguy21@gmail.com
I’m having the same issue w my g26
Yeah i fixed the reset problem but now the trigger won’t set back to the original state it’s just reset reset reset now i can’t take my slide off?
See my vid about slide removal with trigger struck
I have a p80 I built and almost every time I rack the slide fast while holding the trigger down and then release the trigger to reset it it sounds like the firing pin fires and doesn't reset . I tried changing the spring and plunger it's better but still having the issue.
Your crossbar angle is off 100%. Means it’s not resetting til after firing pin is sitting on the safety. Your shark fin is activating the safety and a small strike forward happens
That was the problem thank you very much! 👍👍
I put the aftermarket slide but the trigger won't go click. Not sure what my issue is.
Won’t click. Be more explicit
Pin doesn’t fall?
Let me know
@@JARG Pull trigger back and nothing happens. With a Glock OEM slide it will go click. Normal function. Bought an aftermarket slide and I pull the trigger back nothing happens. I heard it described as a dead trigger. Goes back no engagement. Like I said the Glock 43x slide works fine the aftermarket one doesn't engage at all and trigger goes back.
Did you ever hear of the P80 Front Locking Block Pin Or Trigger Housing Pin causing trigger inconsistencies? I left it out altogether and it resets perfectly without it. Is it necessary if the G19 doesn’t have one?
Not sure. Don’t that would help a reset issue
@@JARG I think it’s causing additional slide drag which contributes to an inconsistent reset.
My trigger won't reset unless I'm holding the trigger. So regular racking won't do it except for the first time
Post a video on your channel. Tell me when up. Sounds like crossbar angle or connector
@@JARG I will this afternoon, in the mean time have you ever had an issue with the slide lock spring not wanting to sit down flush in its slot. my spring has a slight curve on the end where it goes into the slide
@@JARG nevermind I snipped a tiny piece of the spring and now everything functions nicely
I have a problem if I put the back pin in it doesn’t work but if I have no pin I can reset and pull it
What happens when pin is in?
Sounds like it’s slipping over the crossbar. If the pin is not holding the rear trigger housing down, the striker lug is catching the rear of the crossbar and it will then work. That is the best diagnosis I can do without knowing more
Can I please get some help with my issue on gst-9 build. When I dry fire the pistol the slide seems to move forward about 1/2 a mm. I have all glock oem components in both lower and slide. I noticed that the barrel seems to rest on the ejector? Is this how the mechanics are supposed to work? Doesn't seem right. If I remove recoil spring from slide and push back on barrel towards ejector, you can see where the ejector springs back some and the barrel will sit flush with slide until pressure is removed. With the gun assembled and the trigger in the back position (after firing of gun) the barrel is nice and snug as it should in the slide....as soon as I rack the slide and the trigger moves to the forward position that hairline gap appears again (between back of barrel and slide). I have tried switching out all slide internals with no luck. If I remove the slide internals (minus the firing pin) and re-install the slide no gap...re-rack and no gap...fire and no gap...I am lost on this. The only thing I can think of at this point is that the slide is slightly out of spec.
The problem is your recoil spring
Watch my video on P80 Slide creep. I think I switched to the 20lb recoil spring. What weight is your current recoil spring? Also what weight is your current firing pin spring?
Watch this video 1st

I’ve built like 6 or 7 P80’s at this point but I just did my first 10mm one and I’m running into an issue I’ve never experienced before and am not finding any solution online. When I pull the trigger I don’t get a “click” it just feels mushy and goes back into place when I let go. I haven’t tried live ammo yet just dry fire. I tried bending the trigger connector slightly as I saw that as a potential solution in a video but that didn’t change anything. Could it be that I need a stronger spring for the firing pin safety? Thanks in advance for any insight you can provide, I’m pulling my hair out over here lol
Either the angle of your crossbar is too high in the rear and it’s not dropping to allow the the firing pin to go forward. See if you have high wear marks on striker lug
Or your shark fin I hitting bottom of slide before the striker firings
Does the trigger get full travel or short?
Let me know more details
@@JARG it has full travel. Do you have Instagram or something where I can send a video?
@@spencerbrown6325 justaregularguy21@gmail.com
I installed an apex trigger, and trigger bar. It functions perfectly. I went to install the apex ultimate safety plunger and when you hold the trigger for reset it automatically fires. Any thoughts?
Yes. Firing lug slips over the cross bar
ruclips.net/video/tNbeX1zTzZ4/видео.html
@@JARG
Thanks for the response. It only happens with the apex ultimate safety plunger. I just put the stock one back until I can figure out why it is doing that.
@@JARG
I sent pictures of my frame and slide to apex. I reinstalled my oe safety plunger which works perfectly until I can figure out why the ultimate safety apex plunger is not working properly.
How can I email you? Have a video I’d like to send you of mine and get your thoughts.

Send me a quick video on it
My Glock 23 slide won’t rack all the way with dummy rounds in whenever it’s racked back n extracts a round, the slide has to be pushed forward, any ideas?
As far as push forward…. It’s your spring. See my video on slide creep. It’s in the description

Hey I made a Glock 20 p80 and have trigger problems completely won’t dry fire lmk if u could help.
Tell me a little more about it
@@JARG I have a short of it posted on my channel but the guy I ordered from said it’s probably the connector and sent me a new one
@@bandzz.4036 I saw you video
@@bandzz.4036 I think it’s your connector or your cross bar angle is too high in the rear. You are pressing the sear into the striker lug but the sear never falls so the lug just pushes your trigger back forward from the weight of your striker spring
@@JARG you think the new connector will fix it?
Hey Jarg, I have tried my hardest to get the timney trigger to function properly. I have installed and reinstalled at least 5 times. I'm getting failure to reset. I have tried both the red and silver return springs, but still getting the same issue. I am running a minus connector which I have polished. You mentioned you had to grind down the trigger bar for the timney, did you try sanding a few thou off of the frame instead of the bar? Also what were your failure to reset look like?
Yes did you watch my 3 Timney Reset videos
@@JARG I have, I'm also using a p80 frame, so grinding the slide release won't pertain to me.
@@alexvu7686 when you pull the trigger, where is the friction. Something is holding your trigger The frame, connector, etc. where is the friction. Have the slide off and look at where your parts are rubbing
my trigger won’t reset unless i rack the slide twice, how do i fix that? what is the issue causing it to do that? the trigger bar kinda seems a bit high but i’m not sure if that’s the issue.
Likely cross bar angle
If you pull trigger and don’t hold it back. Rack it and tell me if it resets
Help! My slide seems to behave, but my trigger just gets heavier and stiffer with every pull until it locks up. Then I have to rack it a bunch to get the trigger to brake.
Post a video on your channel. Tell me when it’s uploaded
@@JARG ha! With the Biden admin watching? No thanks. No disrespect though. I appreciate what you're doing. Also, fixed my prob with 220 grain paper and vegetable oil. 😉
Edit for: 🖕 CNN !!! 🖕
Also, round off the plunger and make sure the extra material is cut out really good in your dust cover where the recoil spring channel is in your P80.
That's always a big issue.
Great vid 👍

Don’t heat up the cross bar. It’s not needed and bad advice to give because someone is going to ruin the heat treat on their cross bar.
Sir I clearly state Do need over heat…. If you don’t like the advice then keep scrolling
@@JARG but you don’t need heat at all to adjust the cross bar for sear engagement. Sooooo yeah it’s bad advice. The entire trigger bar is essentially a giant spring. Heat destroys springs. Last thing we need is to advise people to heat up their trigger bar potentially ruining the heat treat with a heat gun for example and eventually having a negligent discharge. Sorry but my recommendation is correct and better practice. Sorry you got so fucking butt hurt about it pussy haha. Jesus Christ…take some constructive criticism…essentially around ohhh I don’t know…the fucking structural integrity of a fucking trigger maybe? Douchebag haha
My p80 g26 if having problems feeding and ejecting the shell just stays inside it doesn’t come out could tell me what should I do to help fix that problem ?
Sounds like an extractor claw issue
What happens if you eject manually
Also what pound guide spring is in it
For some reason my rwb mag works well with my p80 I have no problems to feed but with my gen 5 glock 19 mag every round gets stuck on the barrel feed ramp any idea how to fix this problem?
What part is getting stuck?
@@JARG I check out your failure to feed video and the same problem you were having I was so ima change out the recoil spring and see if that changes it. It's still werid the oem mag is the one I'm having trouble with but we'll see if this fixes it
