We're assuming that you are aware of the fact that the trigger has to be pulled/dry fired prior to field stripping any Glock....are we correct?They are stock except for the Extended Slide Release.
Sorry if I didnt explain it enough. The standard break down works perfect on the G17- slightly pull slide back, press two side buttons and pull trigger to release.
The G19 does all of the same except I dont have to pull the trigger. The slide will just come off.
Yes!My interpretation is, he can field strip the 19 without depressing the trigger.
This is my experience on the subject...Last weekend, the fam and I went to buy a 19. Long story short, the Mrs. was playing with it on the couch (the glock) while I was out of the room. When I came back, she had the slide off and the manual in her lap. Never did get a straight answer from her, whether or not she did it properly. In my haste, put the slide back on without looking at the trigger. It functions fine, so :dunno:.Yes!
The 17 will only field strip completly if you pull the trigger. The 19 does not need the trigger pulled.
I have a G19 built in Feb `09 Sometime I have to pull the trigger, sometimes I don't. I figured I just pulled the side back an extra mil or 2 further without noticing I was doing it.They are stock except for the Extended Slide Release.

OK, one more try.....Yes!
