| I dont know if this has been covered before or not but im looking to tune up my 2nd gen G22. I recently did a detailed strip to find that the gLock Spacer sleeve has a crack in it i dont know how long its been that way but i figure its time for a tune up on it anyhow what parts do i need to get thanks. Eta im not trying to make anything better here i just want to know what should be replaced in my 13 year old gun |

I recently went this route with my 2nd gen G19. I called Glock and ordered every spring in the gun. They sent it at no charge.
I would go the same route on your G22. I would also change the springs in your mags and made sure you have the latest design follower. I would do one upgrade and replace the Guide rod with a Wolff or Lone Wolff model and go with a couple of pounds heavier than stock recoil spring. When Glock decided to build .40 and .357 guns they never beefed up the slide or went with a heavier recoil spring to combat the hotter loads. The G22 pretty much shares all the same parts as the G17 and that's a 9mm. |

You can get a Firing Pin Spacer Sleeve by itself, or just get a whole Firing Pin Assembly, it will include the sleeve, new Firing Pin, Firing Pin Spring, and Firing Pin Spring Cups. Might as well.
Might as well make sure it's got a fresh Recoil Spring Assembly (not sure when you last replaced it, but Glock recommends every 3,000 rnds for .40, that's what I do) and a new Trigger Spring, as they are prone to breakage after a while. Other than that, you should be good to go. |

If you're changing followers you might want to look at a factory mag with the late follower and see if your mag body is different inside just below the feed lips. |
