Direct, clear, and concise! No dumb intro or screaming to like, sub, and smash the alert. I wish more videos were precisely like this. After buying a used Ruger Mark iii and struggling to disassemble and reassemble, I watch videos like these before making a purchase decision. Thanks again!
That’s why I think he deserved a subscribe! And no egotistical “you should know how to remove a slide already” comment…share the knowledge, don’t hoard it and make yourself feel high and mighty not sharing it! There’s my rant for the day lol
My dude you are the only one that explained how to do it correctly I couldn't figure out why it was not doing it till I just watched your video I much appreciate it
Very informative! The different kinds always have some sort of quirky intricacies, and once you are aware of your pistol’s, then it’s pretty easy to do
Man, great tutorial I tossed the dummy mag and your video was helpful with direction about any mag!! Big help, clear, precise and informative!! Thanks again!!
you did a much better job than other channels, showing the fact that it’s really not that bad. Some of the other channels made it look like it was a huge pain. Thanks for clearing that up.
Thank you for your attention to detail. I just purchased this firearm and as you said no one ever went into detail about having to pull the trigger to disassemble or the fact that a magazine, dummy or otherwise, was required. Excellent video!
Idk how many rounds you’ve put through there but I wish I could use my slide lock as a slide release with my thumb on mine! I’ve put about 1500 rounds through it and that slide lock(yes hardcore gun nuts I know it’s a slide lock not a release) but it just refuses to work in anyway it wasn’t designed for. It’s both a great ode to Ruger for quality but also a pain in the ass bc I love this gun so much and it’s been in my pocket for 2yrs now & I figured “oh I know it’s not a slide release but it’ll hopefully loosen up & I won’t have to rack it back and disengage it every time” we’ll I was wrong on that 😂 but I still cannot find anything bad about this gun at the $249 price point I got it at. Before you ask yes I did get the teal(Tiffany Blue) frame w/silver slide! I love when ppl see it & say “that’s a little girls .380 isn’t it!?” Well no it’s not a .380 & even if it were a .380 and even it is a “girls gun” (normally that’s all the full frame lovers that say .45 or nothing edc) technically in a self defense scenario no matter the caliber, no matter the colors, no matter if it’s full, mid, compact, metal or polymer, DEAD IS DEAD & as long as it’s the bad guy who’s on the receiving end I could care less if I’m shooting a neon pink noisy cricket with rainbow tassels and glitter coming out behind the bullet bc those Norma Ammunition Monolithic HPs don’t play around. If it’s not the Norma’s then it’s the Federal Premium PD 124gr Punch JHPs and both seem like they would ruin someone’s day. For the price point I can’t find anything bad about this gun. Just remember as long as you’re not carrying a High Point you’re A OK!!!
You shouldn't have to slide it back until it clicks. Mine actually doesn't do that for some reason. There's a little, flat slide release lever, right in front of the safety lever. Push that down and the slide comes right off. Might need to push the slide with very light pressure. But it works.
Great video…my slide catch is up and I have to manipulate it just for the slide to come off. The pin was getting stuck on the barrel during insertion. Yea it was fun getting this back together lol.
Thank You very much for your great video! Just got My EC9s today and went to My shooting range to try it out. When I got home and started the takedown to clean, I ran into the same slide issue that You explained. Just one important thing that I wish to add to is that when you pull back on the slide just a little bit as You said to do, squeeze and hold the trigger as you pull the slide forward or else it still won't move. I know as I re-watched that You were doing it but I didn't catch on right away. Thanks again because I was following the owners manual instructions word for word and they did not cover this information about the slide removal anywhere near as well as You did!
@@gunguytx no it is not necessary. You do not even have to pull back slightly on the slide to get it to release forward. Just push down on the slide release and it will go forward for removal.
mannn my barrel was shaky as hell and i was missing most my shots at the range. disassembled it and realized the barrel was slightly out of place. WOW LOL I feel like an idiot
I'm going to have to send my pos ec9s into ruger. The slide is stuck and won't rack ! Once they fix it, it will be sold and I will never purchase another firearm by ruger! This crap is unacceptable!
Did you remove the magazine? Ruger makes great weapons although where they really shine is their revolvers, not their auto loaders. The EC9 isn't super user friendly like other weapons that don't have silly takedown pins.
My dog ate my gun. I set it on the trampoline while i was weed eating(i have a locked gated fenced in yard) and he grabbed it right off the tramp. I had to clean it somethin fierce 😂

Excellent detail provided here that others don't. Thank you, this makes the job simple and easy!

Thank you for this, I cleaned my EC9 for the first time tonight. I followed along with your video and it was a snap!
EXCELLENT!! Basic Straight to the Point Explaination. Not All the Extra Babbling that goes with Most of These Type of Videos! Good Job.👍👍
Thanks dude, U R the man, just purchased my ec9s today,
Thank you for your attention to detail. I just purchased this firearm and as you said no one ever went into detail about having to pull the trigger to disassemble or the fact that a magazine, dummy or otherwise, was required. Excellent video!
Thanks, the trigger pull on disassemble had me messed up to start but now that I seen that it’s easy peezy. Appreciate it
I recently got one and glad I found this video just incase I mess it up putting it back together
Man I appreciate your video I was stumped haven't taken this gun apart in a minute. Keep up the awesome to the point content.
Perfect amount of info for a new EC9 owner; thank you very much!
Thank you it was short video straight to point and very helpful
Direct and to the point.

You’re a badass, thanks dude. Also shot my slide halfway across the garage lmfao

BROOOO, I was sooooo confused until I saw this comment 🙏🏿🙏🏿 thank you!!! Been going at it for 10 mins but just did that n boom just like butter
I just bought this gun and didn't have a clue how to tear it down this video was very well done , I appreciate ya ✌🏻
Thanks very much. I just bought one today from a Pawn Shop and could not take it apart. This helped a lot. Thanks
I got one in a pawn shop. That pin was dry and would not push out easily. Ruger blows.
Thank You for instructing the disassembly and reassembly of this weapon!
Great video…my slide catch is up and I have to manipulate it just for the slide to come off. The pin was getting stuck on the barrel during insertion. Yea it was fun getting this back together lol.
thank you i was wanting to know how difficult it was plus i wanted to see how ling the slide rails were and they look pretty long to me ty
This is a good field strip video. Are you planning to post a video for complete disassembly of the weapon?
Brotha thank you that was super simple!

Great video with very good details especially with that 'click' sound....thanks for sharing!!
I noticed you held the trigger down during slide removal. Is that necessary?
Thanks and God bless Texas!
Yes, it is necessary.
@@gunguytx no it is not necessary. You do not even have to pull back slightly on the slide to get it to release forward. Just push down on the slide release and it will go forward for removal.
Thank you for mentioning the magazine connect
Great video. Thx for sharing!
I agree with the other commenters, very direct and to the point with no frills. Thanks a bunch!😂❤
VERY good informative video. Thanks for sharing! I just subbed your channel.
Great video. Got it disassembled in less than a minute👍
Simple yet extremely informative. Thank you!!
If you use an empty mag instead of the orange one you will need to hold down the slide release when pulling the slide off.
lifesaver
Great video straight foreword easy I like that little tool can you tell me the name of thank you kindly.
Step by step with explanation... very well done 👍🏾
Thank you for the video! I just got mine and your instructions were very clear and on point!
Thanks! Well spoken and it worked!
Great video. Thanks for uploading!
Thanks!! Helped me disable and clean
Thanks alot friend. Just bought one for my wife.
Appreciate the attention to detail here. 👍
Hey has anybody encountered when you take the takedown pin out you can’t dry fire the pistol and can’t disassemble further? (Dummy mag in)
Thanks, bro! I just picked one up and wasn't 100% on the intricacies.
Thanks for the video. Got to go clean my gun now.
Thank you so much
Love the video. Thank you.
Great breakdown 👍🏻
Very good tutorial, thank you
Hey man good shit I appreciate your help man
Easy ty
Thanks for the video!
Earned a follow from myself! Thanks good sir
Great vid, helped me a lot!
Cuh my shi jus will not slide back on when I put spring and barrel on
You helped alot.thanku
THANK YOU!!
Appreciate the video 👍 thanks
Outstanding
Do I need a dummy magazine or can I use an empty magazine?
You can use an empty mag
The slide part that covers the pin will not lock back into place. It just flops around. Any ideas? This is a brand new gun.
Thanks for the video, it was a breeze.
Yup. Thank you
Very helpful video. Thank you.
Great video Better than instruction manual
I can't seem to keep my slide back
I tried to take of the slide but now it’s stuck
Excellent. Thank you.
Very helpful, thank you.
Perfect video!
If you are using an empty mag, you’ll have to release it when the slide locks forward.
Thanks a lot did it with my belt
Thanx great helpful video
Omg it works. Thank you sir
Nice video. Just bought one today. Look forward to using it.
Should be a breeze, danke schoen
Ty, very easy
mannn my barrel was shaky as hell and i was missing most my shots at the range.
disassembled it and realized the barrel was slightly out of place. WOW LOL I feel like an idiot
Perfect video for me!
Thanks bro
The reason you were having trouble taking the slide off is because you need to take that orange magazine out first.
Thank you like clockwork
I'm going to have to send my pos ec9s into ruger. The slide is stuck and won't rack ! Once they fix it, it will be sold and I will never purchase another firearm by ruger! This crap is unacceptable!
Did you remove the magazine? Ruger makes great weapons although where they really shine is their revolvers, not their auto loaders. The EC9 isn't super user friendly like other weapons that don't have silly takedown pins.
@@regulator7931 yes, the magazine is removed! The slide is stuck half way closed! Like something inside has it caught and won't budge!
You didn’t even take the firing pin out
My dog ate my gun. I set it on the trampoline while i was weed eating(i have a locked gated fenced in yard) and he grabbed it right off the tramp. I had to clean it somethin fierce 😂
That’s a new one 😂
The magazine safety can be easily removed.
