Mini Gun Restoration - Glock 17 Cal .11
Restoration of Glock 17 mini gun. In this video I will restore and repair a very little gun in caliber .11. I will also try to test shoot it with real ammunition.
About the Glock 17 mini gun
This little handgun was sent to me to restore by a subscriber from this channel. The package was very anonymous, so I do not get much information about its origin and what happened to the Glock.
The restoration process
I started by removing some of the rust so I could get an overview on how to disassemble this little Glock 17 handgun. I disassembled the gun. There were many parts, and this gun restoration was much more complex than I first thought.
The gun slide was stuck, so I had to carefully hammer on it to make it movable. When I removed the magazine there were two non-shootable dummy cartridges inside, cute mini ammunition.
When everything was taken apart, I sandblasted the gun slide and the magazine, and all the other metal parts were cleaned in my mini tumbler. I cleaned the gun frame in hot soap water and gave it some plastic coating.
I reassembled the Mini Glock and used a lot of time to get all the gun parts at the right place. I did a very cool snakeskin laser engraving on the gun slide and engraved the words “MINI GLOCK” on the magazine. I think this restoration video turned out very well. A lot of close-up video roll.
In the end of the restoration video I test shoot the little Glock 17 with 1 shot of caliber 0.11 that a friend’s friend produced special to me - its like fireworks not real ammo.
This ended up being a very cool video. Please subscribe if you want to see more cool upcoming projects 🙂 And DON’T FORGET TO SEE my MINI ZIPPO RESTORATION: • MINI Zippo Lighter Res...
I you have something very interesting for me to restore like this mini gun, you can contact me thru my Instagram.
Thanks for watching my channel. See you soon.
Best wishes and stay safe ❤ Martin.

Once he notices I may not survive much longer… so the quicker the video, the better 🥲 Sincerely, Screwed.
