I have heard people say that Glocks are one of the easiest guns to take down and strip. BULLSHIT! Its simple IF and only IF you can get the god damn slide off first. Whomever at glock invinted those 2 little, tiny taps you have to pull down only after you can hold the slide back in the correct position is a FUCKING DOUCHE BAG! I love my Glock and its reliability, but for fuck sake, the take down blows donkey dick. I have an HK that is just as reliable, durable and more accurate than my Glock and it it takes a fraction of a second to strip it. German engineers = intelligent, practical. Austrian engineers = fuckwad morons who want to pretend they are German.
Okay I feel a little better now. |

FINALLY. SUCCESS! My original thoughts on the matter still stand. Glock needs to take a look at HK for some help on this. No they don't. 
It gets easier when you become familiar with your equipment. Hey now....this is my cry baby parade. Glock needs to change.

You barely have to move it at all. Once I was shown that grip, it doesn't even register on the scale as any kind of inconvenience. I can't think of a firearm that is easier to take down.
You're probably trying to move it too far, rather than not far enough... just a guess. You only need to move it to clear the lip on the slide lock. |

How the fuck can you strip a HK but not a Glock? The USP must be held the same way to line up the take down notch on the slide to pull the slide stop out. Because HK doesn't have these 2 tiny tabs to pull down like Glock. Line up the plainly visable notch and push out the pin. Done. Glock, you have to guess how far to pull the slide back and then try to manipulate the 2 miniture tabs. Pain in the ass. |

No, HK has designed multiple "Pain in the ass" guns to service..................... |

Beretta 92's are simple as heck to field strip. Glocks are for that matter once you learn the "Glock grip". The only pistol that makes me start cussing is a Ruger Mk II, not the take down part but the put back together part. Ruger P94's and similar models are tricky in that you have to flip a lever or some transaction first in the frame before you can take it apart |

Something tells me you're not holding it like this: http://www.gunreports.com/media/newspics/Glock-G19-9mm-3takedown.jpg 
The defect is in the OP, not the Glock. With very little training it is possible to field strip the pistol in about 3-5 seconds max. If you've got enough dexterity to pull on your pud, you ought to be able to manage this. |

Common sense helps. It appears that is lacking.
Clear the weapon, pull the trigger, grab the tabs, pull the slide back like in the picture, push the slide off the frame. It literally takes 2 seconds to take down a Glock. If you still cannot manage that, watch some YouTube video's of children taking down Glocks. |

You can probably find it cheaper, but this solves the problem completely:
