Oh My Gosh! It’s bleeding so bad. Oh! It’s so
bad…it’s so bad… it’s so bad…get up there! Get up there! Get up there!
Right! We want it nice and high. We’re going to
cinch it down. We’re going to get one good twist. We’re going to lock those
windless in place. That’s 15 seconds down…and…good! 20 seconds…keep working
through it. Nice! Good! Keep working through it…that’s 30 seconds…keep working,
if you have not already done so. Yeah! That’s good. All right, all right, 40
seconds in…it’s good…working good…there we go! Good! You can take it off,
please.
All right, that’s one minute. Just finish up the
one you’re on.
So, you see now what we talked about with stress
inoculation. All I did was put you under a clock. The only person you were
competing against was you! That’s kind of a stunning individual, and I want to
impress him!
Ryan
Gass here, PTPGun.com, and
today, we’re going to show you how to field strip this Smith & Wesson
S&W 40VE.
Now, before you field strip any firearm, you want to double-check and make sure the firearm is unloaded. So, we’re going to go ahead, pick the
firearm up, or hit the magazine release on the left side by the trigger guard
here, take that magazine out, set it to the side, double-check the chamber, make
sure it’s good to go, and we are clear and ready to proceed.
To proceed into the field strip, we’re going to pull that slide
back, and we’re going to let go. We’re going to go ahead, and we’re going to
pull the trigger. Now, from here, we’re going to grab hold of the firearm with
our thumb at the tang of the grip, and we’re going to wrap our fingers up over
the slide and squeeze just a little bit to bring that slide back, just a little
bit. Now, with it back like that, we’re going to take our thumb on one side,
our middle finger on the other, we’re going to grab on this takedown lever.
It’s spring-loaded, and it’s held in the up position. We’re going to have to
grab it from both sides. We’re going to pull it down. We’re going to hold it
down, and while it’s being held down, we’re going to release that slide, and
the slide’s going to come off. Now, from here, we’re done with the frame, and
it comes with a field strip. So, we set the frame to the side.
The slide assembly. We’re going to go ahead upside down. We have
our spring and spring guide. We’re going to compress that just a little bit.
Let me set it to the side. We’re gonna push up with our finger. We’re gonna get
that barrel up and out of there. Set that to the side, and then we have our
slide. So now, we have our slide, our barrel, our spring and spring guide, and
our frame. From here, you can do any type of cleaning or maintenance you might
need to do to the firearm.
Now, let’s go ahead and proceed back into reassembly, and it’s
going to be the same thing you did to disassemble for the field strip, and it’s
going to be the same thing but in reverse. So, we’re going to take our slide
upside down. We’re gonna drop our barrel in, muzzle first. It’s gonna set into
its place, the barrel is gonna stick out the muzzle about a millimeter, so
that’s perfectly normal. We’re gonna take our spring and spring guide, and
we’re gonna drop that in. You have a flat end, and you have a kind of small,
more pointed end. We’re going to drop the more pointed end into the front of
the frame, near the muzzle. We’re going to compress that spring just a little
bit, it’s getting caught in the lug of that barrel. Now, we’re going to re-set
that upside down, right side up, we’re gonna take the frame the rail here.
We’re gonna insert that rail into the cutout of the bottom of the slide here.
We’re gonna take that, we’re gonna insert that in, we’re gonna keep it matched
up, we’re gonna pull it all the way back, and we’re gonna let go.
Now, you’ll notice when I did that actually, it’s kind of good
that it happened this way. Sometimes, it’ll happen like this way where you
don’t put the gun back together exactly properly. You’ll see how this spring
guide is kind of sticking out a little bit. All I’m going to do to fix that is
I’m going to kind of manipulate a little bit, I pushed a little bit against it,
and it realigned itself.
Now, we want to go ahead and do a function check on this firearm
to make sure that it’s still put together properly. So, we’re gonna pull that
slide back and let go. We’re gonna go ahead and pull the trigger. We’re gonna
pull that slide back, let go, pull the trigger. We’re gonna pull the slide
back, pull the trigger, and hold the trigger to the rear. While holding it to
the rear, we’re gonna go ahead and pull the slide back and let go, and then we
want to let go of the trigger slowly until you hear and or feel that click.
Once you hear that click, the trigger has been reset. You can now apply
pressure to the rear again, it’ll go off. Again, we’re going to go ahead and
hold it to the rear, pull the slide back, let go and release that trigger. Now,
we’re going to go ahead and just double-check to make sure that the firearm
operates with the magazine as well.
Again, we’re going to pull back, let go, pull that trigger, and
now we have field stripped and reassembled our Smith & Wesson S&W 40VE.
If you have any particular firearm you would like to see us field
strip, be sure to click on the comments below and let us know what you would
like to see done. We may have already done it, or we may not. If we haven’t, we
will make sure to make that video for you.

effort. Also, they should wear shoes that don’t make screeching sound to make

2.Carrying a reload is a must
The person on the
field should always carry more than one reload. This is because they don’t know
where to shot and how many criminals are there at their end. That’s why, it is
always advisable to carry a set of reloads and they should also keep them handy
so that when the need be they can take it out at one go.
3.Keeping a magazine comes handy
The undercover
agents are usually in their civil clothes to discreet their real identity. So,

weapon. The person should know when to guard and when to drop the magazine to
ensure smooth firing.

spots the target, they should immediately chase them. For this, a person should
be light on their foot, sharp thinker and should think without acting first.
All this comes with moving efficiently which is a key on gaining perfection in

There is more
than what the person carrying a gun on the field sees. This means the shooter
should be well-prepared and procrastinate that what can come behind the target.

futile.
