WE Glock Slide Stuck
Hi,
I'm new to airsoft, and literally just got my first GBB pistol. It's a WE Glock 18C G-force T1 (salient arms type g18c). I took off the slide, then spring guide/recoil spring and barrel to check over it. when I assembled it, the slide is now stuck and will not allow me to rack the slide forwards or backwards. How do I fix this?, Thanks in advance |
Which location is your slide locking?
At the slide catch location or further back? |
|
Try to disassemble the pistol again. If it does not budge keep holding down the disassembly lever, and give it a light tap with the palm of your hand to the back of the slide.

It looks like the barrel grouping isn't going into place; the recoil spring guide should not be protruding out like that.
Hold down both sides of the slide disassembly and try to rack it back. Do this GENTLY. If this does not work, hold down both sides of the slide disassembly and try to shimmy the recoil spring guide into place. Not familiar with glock series, but is there a safety mechanism? |

the slide assembly is pushed down without me needing to do so. The slide won't budge forwards or backwards
|
try pulling the spring guide forward, see if it moves or is jammed, to me it looks like the slide was installed with the barrel not properly in battery
also where are you located? |

I'm in the UK (I apologise, I'm not Canadian, you guys just have the best airsoft forums). |

Last resort: take it back to the store you bought it from and ask for assistance. Do not tell them you disassembled it unless they ask you. |

The recoil spring guide should be seated in the barrel grouping where the "metal block" (the name escapes me) seats into the disassembly lever. The recoil spring guide could be preventing the block from being properly seated since it's out of place. It doesn't appear to be at an angle so it could just be caught on something. Good luck!

Remember to disengage the safety because that can also prevent the slide from going into battery in some guns. |
Thanks for all the help.
Been working on it every now and then. Status hasn't changed, exactly in the same position as I started. I'm gonna keep trying for a day or two, if all fails, i'll take it to an airsoft specialist shop. I'll try keep y'all updated. Thanks again, for all the quick replies and you've made me a fan and now user of this forum. |
