    Default Glock firing pin plunger spring

    They need to cerakote those damn springs in safety orange
    Or at least make them big enough that they don't disintegrate into the atmosphere if they happen to jump away when trying to reinstall them.

    I think they call that one the firing pin safety spring.
    Mom's comin' 'round to put it back the way it ought to be.

    Anyone that thinks war is good is ignorant. Anyone that thinks war isn't needed is stupid.

    Nothing worse than air soluble springs and small parts.

    And with your tenure in the gunsmithing business...I'm sure no one knows better than you sir. Of course, you're really not a true gunsmith until you've tried to install a small, spring-loaded part and have it go flying, followed by a string of colorful language, then only to find yourself on the floor searching for it. Then unable to find it, come across it by chance when looking for another small part that went flying days later.

    I had a sear spring out of a CZ take off on me a few days ago. It was a tiny little bastard. Amazingly I found it rather quickly. I just knew when it took off I'd have to get on the phone and get a new one coming.

    ball detents are extra special fun to find on the floor, too...
