@@BeardedDragonMan1997 some products recommended using gloves and even have warnings about prolonged contact with skin but to my understanding most CLP you don't need to especially if you're just cleaning one gun...just need to be aware of the health risks with any sort of chemical.

Great video! I just picked up a Shield Plus to replace my EDC of the past 10 years and just needed a quick how-to just to make sure I wasn't going to be missing anything outside of the basics (ie: barrel, rails, etc).
If you don't have any picks you can place the patch over top whatever crevice or slide crease and then take your brush face and place over the exposed portion of the patch and just scrub! The sharp bristles will help push the patch down into the entire surface area. This is why I like the Otis blue bristle nylon brush. Honestly the brush/patch does a much better job than picks over pretty much the entire pistol except for the super tight spots like trigger housing and fire control module on the lower portion of the pistol. You're right about people completely missing their extractor claw too! I've had alot of customers come in with ejection or stove pipe issues and now the very first thing I check is the extractor claw. Since the repeated pressure is constantly intact in litteraly the dirtiest portion of the gun it can get filthy fast! I've had a few come in where the carbon and whatever primer acids have actually formed a rock hard bugger over the claw and has to let it soak and chip away at it. When an extractor is that filthy and gummy you can almost guarantee that the striker module and spring are just as bad.
One can push the cleaning pads or the bristle brush with the rod from either end of the barrel. Since the rod of the cleaning rod rotates free it does not matter which end you push it from. The rifling is the same twist direction from either end, just be sure to push it holding the handle. Your arm force is not a machine and is moving way too slow and w very little force to do any type of damage to the barrel.
You can opt to not pull the trigger to release the slide. You can push the sear disconnect lever down instead. That is unless they did away with it for the plus version.
Only part missing in the video is the part that confused me: Moving the sear deactivation lever around. I was kind of afraid of moving that part around. Didn't want to mess up a brand new gun!
Use tungsten disulfide (Ws2)! Dry powder, slipperiest thing on the planet, sheds carbon, bonds to metal by rubbing it on, doesn't attract dirt, doesn't come off, withstands 100,000 lbs. of force, eliminates wear. I run my guns dry with NO problems or signs of wear. Better than oil (oil attracts dirt) but if you are worried of what I say, Ws2 also blends well with oil and can be used together. I've been using it in my car's engine oil for 12 years and the engine is like brand new (no wear!!). Nasa uses Tungsten disulfide (Ws2) on the Mars rover. Great for guns!
Thanks for the video, I needed to know how to get the slide of the lower rail. But I will say that was the cleanest gun I've ever seen cleaned. In Kodiak when I was done shooting every cotton cleaning pad was covered in blackness.
The guide rod locks perfectly into the front housing and the underside lip of the barrel. That retention alone will hold it in place but will fall if dropped or messed with. What locks it in is there's a face that meets the locking block of the lower end of the pistol. Once these two surfaces meet the guide rod is now locked in place and won't go anywhere unless something catastrophic happens like the inside rod surrounded by the coil bends or snaps under pressure which is extremely rare.
Note that you should field strip this without pulling the trigger. After locking the slide back and rotating the takedown lever, reach inside the chamber and push the sear deactivation lever slightly down. Don't force it. No need to pull the trigger.
@@jazzmac03 It doesn't appear to do any harm, to me seems no worse than dry-firing. The lever is the recommended way but I couldn't find any reason to not just pull the trigger except for the possibility of ND - but since you already have the slide locked open it would have ejected anything in the chamber anyway. The only valid reason I see online is that police departments with a magazine safety on their models wanted it so you could disassemble it without a magazine.
Way to much lube, but everyone does things differently. I also use my brushes first, then use the patches. I use Ballistol, no gloves required. Good enough for Hickok45, good enough for me.
For cleaning of the rails there is no need for picks.. take an old ID, credit card, or my personal favorite, a hotel room card and put it inside an old t shirt. Fits perfectly inside the slide rails and makes getting the gunk and old oil out a breeze!
Hello I just bought a Shield Plus just like yours. So just use the CLP but no other form of lubricant anywhere else? Thanks for posting such an informative video!
You can use CLP or you can use a 2 part bore cleaner + lube. It's preference, some will tell you one is better than the other, just go with what you like.
Thanks for sharing the information with those of us that have never broke down a compact Semi-Auto. I have cleaned Revolvers and long guns but kinda wondered about all the moving parts, springs and etc. After watching your demonstration I realized my concern was unfounded, pretty straight forward it actually appears that S&W has made it less complicated in this model at least. I didn't see you do anything with clip/mag, is that necessary or did I miss something? The reason for my question is I have heard some complaints regarding the seating of the clip ( shield plus) having issue with clips/Mags feeding ammo. Also, have you you heard or personally had any issues with the clip plate having a space between the grip-frame. If so could you mention that as I noticed my Shield Plus has a small gap. Hearing about the problem of trying to load 13 rounds in gun I loaded 7 just to avoid the possibility of the spring being new and causing pressure when trying to load 13 I loaded 7 and placed the clip and the small crack is there. Thanks for your time and considering your demo was directed at persons unfamiliar I personally feel the extended video is great for familiarizing a person with no experience as folks will learn the "right way" as everyone will find there on shortcuts but at least they were taught properly.
My gun I bought used and noticed that the spring is spring ( for lack of a better term) and I can’t get it into the slide. I’d like to know if I can do anything to get this spring in
You don't ever want to rely on any coating to completely protect your gun... If you look at any kind of metal under a microscope you will see that there's very sharp hills and valleys in the metal. That coating doesn't bond to the metal like you might think. Just simply holstering your weapon will disturb the coating and cause microscopic portions of the metal to now be exposed, allowing any foreign materials to make contact. It's wise to always hydrate all metal surfaces with your favorite lube and let it sit a bit after cleaning. Not only does it help protect and ensure a nice and long surface life but makes future cleanings WAY easier.
I tend to agree as it's so simple and even if it offers any protection to the finish. The fact that the outer slide is where you pull the slide with, could that be a potential issue for someone who attempts to load chamber having any problems gripping it? I would think your referring to wiping it down occasionally and not making it routine for everytime you handle the gun the way us old-timers did after handling the weapon. Thank goodness for these new coating protection products, know more worrying about "BLUEING".
Haven't cleaned mine since I purchased it because I thought I needed special tools... That's crazy. Glad I got a can of gun cleaner I never threw away 😂
Does this take the same parts as the normal shield models? I saw a shield plus in shop but I didn't hop on it due to my ignorance of parts availability.
A little over kill. Some of your technique is useful, but the amount of oil is a little excessive. You may want to let the slide, barrel and guide rod sit a little bit before putting it back together.
FIXES - if anyone else does this. Watch the last half of Smith & Wesson Shield (stuck) slide removal. by Visionary Trailblazin, Mine doesnt have the yellow on that release lever but moving that inner lever down DID work. ALSO, after putting it to together, trigger wouldnt release firing pin every time. After MUCH research, I put a knife blade between the trigger bar and firing pin lever to gently widen the gap between the two. Works perfectly now.
I hsd the original shield sold it just bought the shield plus the plastic they use on the frame looks different like it's a cheaper plastic. I prefer the look of the frame on my original shield.
I always wondered why some Shield plus have shiny polymer lowers and others is like a dull matte finish mine has that dull finish while others that I see reviews on RUclips some have the shiny lowers
I follow the instructions to take the gun apart but when I move this slide removal dog forward pull the trigger and try to slide the upper slide forward it won't come off. Any ideas?
You have to either flip the sear deactivation lever down (consult owners manual) - or just pull the trigger (with the slide in it's normal position) before the slide will come off.
Smith & Wesson advertises that with some sort of technology, you don’t have to pull the trigger, but clearly that’s not the case. Maybe that’s on the newer 2022 models?
If you flip the sear deactivation lever down, you don't have to pull the trigger to get the slide off... but ignoring the sear deactivation lever and simply pulling the trigger works too. I GUESS the sear deactivation lever is just there to avoid a dry fire, but as far as I know that doesn't hurt anything with this gun.
Keep the Lubricant's off the Plastics as much as possible. Like dissolves Like in Chemistry. Hydrocarbons degrade hydrocarbons over time. UV and Sunlight breaks bonds over time on Hydrocarbons as well. Plastics are Hydrocarbon chains. Don't allow your Firearm to sit cooking in sunlight for hrs.
First time cleaning my Plus. Manual says sear deactivation lever is yellow(ish), mine is not. Says nothing about pulling the trigger. Anyway, I push it down, move the slide forward, but it stops 1/4 inch forward and will not go farther. Tried pulling the trigger just in case, no help. Anyone have constructive thoughts?
Your procedure is nothing if not thorough except for the lubrication points. The manual states seven: 4 on the frame (slide rails), 1 on the trigger bar, and 2 on the barrel - on top, just below the hood and at the end where the muzzle locks against the slide. I counted only six in the video. I understand though about concentration on wear points as you said.
Lmao, no one leaves it that wet when it's time to go back into service.... He's doing exactly what I do after every cleaning and letting whatever lubricant or clp lightly coat all outside surfaces to help hydrate any exposed metal and let it sit for 20-30 minutes to allow it to work down into all the microscopic cracks and crevices in the metal..... Then you simply take a microfiber and pat dry.... If anyone is taking a soaked gun like that and putting it anywhere other than a safe then they are clearly not right in the head...
Am I the only person who looks for cleaning techniques to borrow from videos? I look for different techniques to add to my near OCD cleaning process of my EZ.
Talk about gouging, the CLP Cleaning Oil for the same size you show on the Amazon page for $23.34 is now $42.62!!! I don't know how much kick back you get but I initially was willing to support you going through your link, but will take a pass.

You can opt to not pull the trigger to release the slide. You can push the sear disconnect lever down instead. That is unless they did away with it for the plus version.
I believe it is still there and yellow for easy identification.
Yes still there
Agreed. The S&W Instruction Manual does not say to pull the trigger. It does say to lower the sear deactivation lever.
Yeah so I’m wondering which is the correct way. I think I’ll do what the manual says to be safe.🤷🏻♂️
Only way mine works
I love that you put the gun itself on the list of required items! Haha
Thanks for this very informative feature on the disassembly/assembly and proper cleaning and maintenance of the M&P9 Shield Plus. Best regards.

Spring is sort of confusing how it has nothing to lock into. Glad I found your video so I’m not doing anything wrong.

You should use a micro fiber rag to wipe away the excess oil.
The gun looks kinda greasy
Way to much lube, but everyone does things differently. I also use my brushes first, then use the patches. I use Ballistol, no gloves required. Good enough for Hickok45, good enough for me.

For cleaning of the rails there is no need for picks.. take an old ID, credit card, or my personal favorite, a hotel room card and put it inside an old t shirt. Fits perfectly inside the slide rails and makes getting the gunk and old oil out a breeze!
For California compliant version you need to push the sear lever forward to release the slide, the trigger pull will not work.

Why no mention of moving the (yellow) sear deactivation lever prior to disassembly?
No need to oil the outside of the slide. It has Armornite anti-corrosion finish.
The out side of the slide still gets gun powder on it. So if you want your clean , yes you do need to do the outside of the slide .

Your procedure is nothing if not thorough except for the lubrication points.
