I cant get it to budge! Yes I already took out the pin on just above it and yes I'm wiggling the mag **slide**release while I try to push it out with the glock tool I'm at a loss... pic of said gun

I'm sorry I ment slide release

I'm sorry I ment slide release

So you're saying you can't remove the slide?

Or are you trying to remove the trigger pins?

the trigger pin, the other two pins came out with no problems but I cant for the life of me remove the trigger pin. I will give it another shot later one when I get home from work.

Did you try a punch and hammer? the 1st time I detail stripped my G34 it was a bit tough to get out, but now it is fine.

No I didnt because I read that it could damage the trigger and the slide release if I do so. That being said I will give it a shot in a couple of hours.

If this is the first time you're removing that pin, then yes it's a b**** to remove. Do not use a hammer. Push down firmly with the Glock tool while slowly wiggling the slide lock release like what you've been doing.

You can also try removing it from the other side.

Finally got it off and on a couple of times man that thing was a PITA to get off! Thanks for the help guys.

Some Glocks are *****es, and some are princesses. DO NOT USE A HAMMER, wiggle the slide stop until it lets go, after the first time, it's easier....

If I remember correctly the first time removing the trigger pin from my Glocks wasn't too bad, it was getting it back in that took some fandangling. The Glock punch tool will save you much frustration getting the pin out, if you haven't already tried it.
