Lumpy is right. The reason we don't have a bunch of spare parts running around is because most of us own more than one Glock.

Here's what I've broken over the years,..... Striker Sleve, Trigger Return Spring, Trigger Bar, and Takedown Latch Spring.
I've worn out,..... recoil springs, mag springs, and followers. The only one of those things that stopped the gun immediately was the trigger bar. It broke the extension that depresses the firing pin safety plunger. When I removed the firing pin safety the gun continued to function till I secured a replacement trigger bar from my friendly Glock Armorer. |

CDNN sells replacement parts sets for $30. Or you could call Glockmeister and he could put together a kit for you. IMO, I think a trigger spring would be the only replacement part you'd need.

Thanks for the info. Another glock at this point would be nice but we just had a new baby so funds are tight. I just thought that for around $30.00 or so I could atleast have some peace of mind knowing that if SHTF did happen I could at least keep the one I do have running. Also the money I would save from buying a second glock I could use to buy more ammo. I'd rather have lots of ammo and one gun then have two guns and half the ammo.

I think all I keep in my spare parts kit is an extractor. I used to keep a coil trigger spring but I have switched to NY1 and I've never heard of one breaking. The only other thing I've occasionally read about breaking is the slide lock, and the slide stop spring. Most my Glocks are 9mm though.

Get another Glock. If the one you have craps out you'd had another one ready to go. Just think if it craps out when the bad guys are coming. How long would it take for you to repair it? You can't call "time-out". I have, 4-G17 2-G26 1-G21 |

I had a slide stop spring break because I had an old style spring in my G19. You might be able to save yourself a couple of dollars if you just check yours to make sure you have the new style: Photo by HotRod9mm:  As you can see the old style is on the left. If you have the newer style I wouldn't worry about buying a spare. |

Damn! You driving nails with that Glock? You have managed to do something even the torture test(s) couldn't do. |

For serious SHTF, the NY-1 trigger spring with a spare 3.5 connector to go with it. A complete striker assembly, ready to go. Maybe put one of those maritime cup sets in there in case your pistol gets wet or has too much oil (no, I'm not going to fire it under water, just a little extra reliability).
Recoil assembly. A compatable second pistol like a G-17 for my G-17L. Consider a longslide for outdoor (bug out) shooting (yes, a rifle, blah blah blah). It's amazing how well a 17L or 34 will shoot at long range with good (non-glock) sights. |

The Armorer that fixed it for me, an actual Glock Inc Employee not just a trained Armorer, said it was only the second failure of that type he had seen. Apparently its a pretty rare failure mode. Luck me!

the only thing i've ever actually seen commonly break are the frame pins & trigger disconnect spring. The gun will run fine with a busted frame pin as long as it doesn't fall out.

Only thing I've ever broken in my G22 was an extractor. Gun still function most of the time with the broken extractor. Replaced it.
