2 Ways To Build a Glock #gun #tactical #civtac #

This guide outlines three distinct methods for acquiring a firearm, presented by a tactical gear influencer. Options range from purchasing a standard factory model (like a Glock 19) to utilizing pre-assembled build kits, and finally, constructing a firearm from individual components. The video also touches upon gunsmithing education resources like the Sonoran Desert Institute.

This guide details the installation of a Cyro backstrap on a Gen 6 Glock, specifically the Glock 19. The process involves removing the factory trigger housing pin and replacing it with an extended steel pin provided with the Cyro backstrap. This modification aims to increase the grip's circumference and improve shooting comfort by adding material to the rear of the frame, addressing the Gen 6's slimmer grip profile. Two versions of the Cyro backstrap are available: one with shock-absorbing rubber and a plain version.

This video provides a detailed, step-by-step guide on how to field strip and reassemble the Glock G19 Gen 6. It highlights key differences in the Gen 6 slide design, particularly the shortened striker safety plunger and the integrated extractor assembly, which simplify the process. The instruction emphasizes safety checks and proper tool usage for a successful breakdown and reassembly.

This guide details the installation of the Timney Alpha Trigger into a Glock Gen 6 firearm. It covers the complete disassembly of the stock trigger mechanism, including removing pins, the locking block, and the trigger housing. The process then details the installation of the Timney trigger, its associated trigger bar, and return spring, followed by reassembly of the firearm. The video emphasizes the benefits of a lighter, crisper trigger pull for improved accuracy.

This guide details the installation of an Aimpoint COA red dot sight onto a Glock 19 pistol slide that has been milled for an optic. The process involves ensuring the firearm is safe, removing the rear sight, aligning the optic, and securing it with the provided hardware. The video, presented by GlockStore, demonstrates the unboxing and mounting procedure, highlighting the precision required for optic cuts.

This guide details the installation of the Magpul EHG RG9 grip module onto the Ruger RXM pistol. The process involves swapping the Fire Control Unit (FCU) from the RXM into the new grip module, effectively converting the platform to a Glock 47 size. The speaker, Phil from USCCA, highlights this as a simple, approximately 5-minute upgrade that significantly enhances the firearm's ergonomics and compatibility with Glock 19 Gen3 parts.

This video presents a humorous skit emphasizing the critical importance of wearing eye protection at the shooting range. It visually demonstrates a handgun malfunction and uses a relatable, albeit exaggerated, scenario with a spent casing to highlight the potential dangers of inadequate eye safety. The creator, experienced in firearm handling and tactical gear, reinforces this essential safety message.

This video features a 'bulletproof' test where a tree is used as a ballistic medium to test various calibers from .22 LR up to .50 BMG. The Civilian Tactical host, demonstrating high-level firearms expertise, shows that even powerful rounds like .50 BMG can be significantly stopped by a dense tree, with none of the tested rounds achieving a complete pass-through. The test highlights the surprising terminal ballistics of different ammunition types against natural barriers.

This video from Civilian Tactical explores the concept of using a human body, simulated with ballistic gel, as a suppressor. The host fires a Derya Arms .22 rifle directly against a ballistic gel head and block, noting the shot sounded 'dead silent.' The experiment demonstrates the penetration depth of a .22 LR round through the simulated head and into the gel block.

This video demonstrates a ballistic test on a Belgian M1 steel helmet, evaluating its resistance against various calibers from birdshot to .223. The test, conducted by Civilian Tactical Host, shows that the helmet is not bulletproof against common handgun and rifle rounds like 9mm and .223. The host's energetic and demonstration-oriented style, coupled with expertise in tactical gear, provides a clear assessment of the helmet's limitations.
