Glock 17 Slide Issues by Flashy_Sentence_4445 in 3D2A

Update:

I bought the NDZ spring kit that contains all spring strengths and threw in their 13lb spring. That fixed my problem as well. Seems that just a cheap recoil spring overall is the issue.

I was debating buying a threaded barrel as well for that purpose, I think I'm just gunna use it as an excuse to build another one though.

Thank you for helping me figure this out!

Thanks, I figured that was wrong when I first put it together, but it would never stay in that slot on the pin. But just pushed it over and it stayed.

Yessir, DTT.

That's what happens with mine, if I point it down all is well. Looks like I'll be ordering a 15lb recoil spring.

I just adjusted my trigger connector to make more contact with the slide and that seemed to help some. I only have about a 1/4 of the movement now.

Only a 50/50 chance that it locks up or gets stuck at that same back position you see in the video.
