I tear every new pistol apart as soon as I pick them up from the FFL. I always find burrs on the trigger bars, among other places. It makes a huge difference! Great video!
Same here. Thank you sir and thx for watching.
Clean, well organized presentation. Nice work, thanks for the tutorial.
Thx doc and thanks for watching. More to come.
Very nice video.

Looked like chrome at the end! Awesome
Awesome job Ram great info
Thx doc and thx for watching.
Shiny like a new penny! Nice one Ram.
Thank you sir and thanks for watching.
Just an awesome video, most of learning the tricks of doing builds came from you guys, this learning was achieved over several years and for that I'm grateful for you guys 🤘🤘
Thx G-man. I look at your work and am always in awe. You do great work my friend.
Excellent video!
Thank you and thanks for watching.
Wow! Thanks for the Flitz love Ram!! 👍👍👀 We appreciate you! Next time you have a chance, try doing both operations with just the Flitz. It may surprise you! 😊 Keep up the great work!! #Flitzit
Thx. Glad i could do the product justice. Sounds good. I'm sure I'll be doing another video or two on tips for polishing other components. If you have any product ideas for me to test out let me know. I can be reached at ramjet1469@gmail.com
@@JettaManDesigns Got a few things that might keep you busy... 🙂
@@Tesla___88s I look forward to it.
Flitz is the best.
@@jameslbolesii Thanks!
That trigger bar looks great now!
Thanks for posting the tutorial.
🙂👍
Thx and thx for watching. You're very welcome. More to come soon.
@@JettaManDesigns Great. I want to learn more about stuff like this.
Still need to check out your older vids too. I only found your channel last night.
I've been detailing my own cars for 30+ years. I plan to do this process but am going to try a different final polish product I have called Dr. Beasley's Metal Coat that bonds to the metal. In auto-circles all the rage has been ceramic nano coatings, and Dr. Beasley's Metal Coat is one for metal surfaces. They add a ton of protection from etching, staining ETC. What they also do is add a lot of slickness. On paint water just beads off. I bet it's going to make the trigger feel amazing.
Sounds awesome. Please keep me posted on your findings. Thanks for watching.
Nice work my friend !
Thank you. Much appreciated. Thanks for watching.
Good point i missed it i use a drimmel and buffing pads especially on the ARs
Vell done !! ✌😎
Thx so much. Thx for watching.
Good stuff Ram…got some glock oem bars to work on
Go to it. Glad to help. Thx for watching.
Question. How you attach the flex shaft to the dremel workstation? You just hanging it or in the mount? (I’m having issues finding how to install in the mount!) haha good video!
Lol thanks for watching. Once it's installed in the dremel I just hang it over the wire strap on the top. 🤷🏾♂️. Thx for the question.
Debating if there are benefits to doing this on the Glock rails and slide connections to smooth out the slide movement…
Go for it. It couldn't hurt. Thx for watching. More to come soon.
is aluminum polish ok for steel?
Does anyone here know if by removing the coating on the trigger bar will have any negative effects on the metal at all by polishing this way ?
That is a very good question and the answer is "no it does not". If done correctly it will remove any microscopic burrs from machining and remove any slop normally felt in glock OEM triggers. I am just one of many builders that do this (I just did another today). If you need a 2nd opinion check out Johnny Glocks channel and many others. He also polishes all metal parts in the fire control group as I do (connector, springs, extractor, ejector etc etc). The firing pin (with exception to the very tip) can also be polished for smoother action.
For the record, the Glock company does not suggest removing the coating. This is done as an enhancement/modification for personal use.
@@JettaManDesigns Thank you very much I really appreciate the information I learned so much today from you and your video and looking forward to the many more , God bless
@@chuckhollins9891 glad to hear it. More coming soon.
Thank you sir 🫡 subscribed!
You're very welcome. Thx and thanks for the sub. More to come.
Thanks brother for the info. It does my heart good to see a black man doing a great job. Not one of those want to be gangsters with a mouth full of gold teeth trying to talk. Great job on the video keep up the good work and I will be looking out for your next video.
Thank you sir. Will do. More to come real soon. Just getting some ducks in a row.
@@JettaManDesignskeep up the good work. And don’t worry about covert racist comments from the peanut gallery. New subscriber here!
@@kellymack7627thx. I appreciate it. Got 3 new builds to showcase and headed to Guncon next week so more content is coming real soon. Stay tuned.
Did you check the trigger pull weight before and after? Just wondering as I watch this.
That is a very good question. In the case of polishing I do not. The polishing of the trigger bar, connector and springs are more about creating a smoother trigger pull (getting rid of the gritty feel) rather than reducing the weight. Although I'm sure there is a difference other than a silky smooth pull in the end.
I do however check the weight because I'm changing the shoe as well as polishing. I have done this on several builds to include my EDC and installed a Ranger Proof shoe (see the Copperhead build video). While the lightened trigger pull has more to do with the upgraded trigger shoe (avg 5lbs down to avg 3.5lbs) the smooth pull is certainly better with a polished bar and connector than out of the box OEM.
Thanks for the question/comment and thx for watching.
I realized that I didn't finish my question by asking if it was more of a feel change than strictly the weight of pull.
Thank You!@@JettaManDesigns
@@bluesbondsman you're very welcome.
If you polish correctly and dont remove more material than necessary it will likely have a small impact on trigger pull. In my experience about half a pound.
@@SushiArmageddon I agree. And polishing shouldn't remove any metal material other than little burrs you can feel but can't see. No abrasives should ever be used. If someone is then they really need to see this video. Thanks for watching.
The black stuff isn't dirt it's black iron oxide
Good to know
Does that mean it is supposed to be left on and not polished off?
@@Iceflame38polishing is fine if you know what youre doing. The biggest risk is removing too much material or inadvertently changing the shape of a part. When metal is removed through polishing it is often black in color. This holds true when I am using whetstones to sharpen knives etc.
You need to cut them nails my guy .
3000 grit wet sanding works really well too and is a slightly faster process than actual polishing. I usually start at 2500 grit and work my way up to 4000-5000 grit for that mirror smooth finish. Oils also works in place or water for wet sanding.
