Abstract: A firearm system which allows firearm disassembly without trigger actuation. The system includes a slide having a divot or cavity disposed laterally off of the main channel. This divot allows for the pivoting of the striker sleeve such that the striker tang sear can move between a first position that is engaged with a corresponding trigger bar sear of a frame and a second position whereby the striker tang sear is disposed at least partially within the divot. This allows the striker tang sear to clear the trigger bar sear for disassembly without requiring a pull of the trigger.

Abstract: A toolless slide backplate for a firearm that comprises an extractor lock and a striker assembly lock. The extractor lock is dimensioned to cover and contact an extractor plunger when installed, and is held in place via an interplay with the extractor plunger. The striker assembly lock is dimensioned to cover the striker components when installed. The striker assembly lock covers the trigger connector of the frame of the firearm such that a disassembly opening is not required.
