- The meat of the video goes from 0:15 to 5:05 (this includes taking the gun apart first and putting it back together once the safety has been removed) After that I just talk about some thinks to think about in terms of getting a new grip without the safety holes.
Hey guys! After reviewing Liz's M17 we decided to do some research and figure out how to remove the safety. After doing so we noticed there wasn't much content out there showing the simplicity of this process so we decided to make a video as a follow up video to our M17 Review. Hope this helps!

0:25 - 1:44 Takedown/disassembly 1:45 - 5:05 Actual Safety Removal and Safety Pin Replacement. The rest is reassemble and I discuss why you need a new frame after doing this. Hope this helps!
That's not a bad idea! Might be worth trying 🤔
Just did this with my M18 after buying a new grip module and safety pin (there is no version that comes without the manual safety, yet). Worked like a charm! Some videos are showing much more disassembly of the FCU, but it's quite unnecessary. Your method is the easiest and best I've seen. Cheers!
There will never be an "m18" model without the safety. The safety is what makes it an m18.
@@donovanchilton5817 They did an M17 with no manual safety.
Awesome video great description worked like a charm for me
Thank you so much this just helped me a lot cause I recently lost my safety pin to my m17 p320 and I was really wondering what I would I have to purchase because my gun isn’t firing now
Throwing my m17 fcu into a x compact grip, I plan on doing this along with the apex trigger bar. This video helps a ton!
Great tutorial! I bought the pin for $10 from Sig and took me less than 5 mins to swap the pins and install the FCU into my new Wilson Combat module!
Which version module did you get for yours? Currently looking and a little overwhelmed
Thank you, that was helpful in moving my m18 fcu over to a Txg frame. 👍🏻
After a little thinking i got the version with no safety, which actually came in cheaper and had 3 mags. they're also more often in stock now since first time buyers generally want a manual safety on it. But sig fixed the drop issue so there shouldn't be any concern. It's cool that they supply the pin you need to do this, and since it's modular you could always get a new lower that doesn't have the cutout and will hold that pin there a little better. Great video.
That's awesome thanks for sharing Kenny!
Seen someone remove the whole trigger assembly to get this same result, great video
Explain perfectly man, thank you 👊🏽🔥🔥
Hi rma arms, Great video!!! I have a question, I am going to get a FCU with manual safety cutout, I am mainly interested in no manual safety but I would like to have the option to switch between both manual safety and no manual safety. With that said if I get a FCU with manual safety cutout and build it as a no manual safety FCU will the butterfly shaped cutout in the FCU for the safety detent jeopardize the function of anything or reliability? I am guessing no because it is just a cutout for the safety detent, but I figured I would ask a pro after I watched you safety conversion video. Also how has your held up any issues? Thank you for your help! and take care!!!
Thanks for posting. I see a M18 in my future.
You won't be disappointed! We also just loaded a full review of the M17 just fyi 🤙 thanks for checking us out 👍
Great video, but my safety bar also was blocking that pin from pushing out so I had to tear down the whole FCU.
Nice and concise tutorial.
I just never engage my safety.
👍
Looking around for something more modern than my 1911 to conceal carry. I've been looking at Glock and the P320. I really don't like trigger safeties and I'm seeing thumb safety P320s are a bit harder to find.
Removing that did you just remove the only safety in the firearm? meaning if you holster that and something like your shirt gets jammed against the trigger will it fire? Sounds like a negligent discharge waiting to happen with how short and light those triggers are.
Thank for posting this I love options. I wonder if you can get a module with the UID cutout for the M17/M18 cause my normal p320 has a smaller window.
You're welcome brother! And that's a good question, I don't see why you couldn't. If you find out please let us know! Thanks for checking us out 🤙
i know this is an old video, but damn that slide pulls back easy. Do you have a aftermarket recoil spring?
Nice job, thank you. Just did this w/ my P320 M18. I replaced the lower w/ a Wilson Combat lower for only $64. I’ll let you know how it shoots!
That is exactly what I'm wanting to do to my m18, please let me know how that Wilson combat frame fits in a standard holster if you don't mind.
Johnson - will do, if it ever comes in. Ordered several weeks ago. But I compared the two lowers and they are very similar where it will sit in the holster. Although I added a Romeo01Pro and Stream Light TLR-7A so my fit my be different anyway. The grip is more narrow on the WC lower, but that should not impact holster selection.
Agreed, the WC frame is a phenomenal choice! Ricky just picked one up and put it on his m17 and it feels amazing! Johnson, so far it has fits every holster we used the previous frame with 👍
Finally got out to the range today. 250 rounds of Sig Sauer 124 FMJ with zero issues! Absolutely love this pistol w/o the safety!! $9 pin and $64 Wilson Combat lower and she runs like a charm. Definitely my new EDC pistol! Well, once I can find a decent holster. I’m running the Sig Romeo 1 Pro and StreamLight TLR-7A.
Great video, in depth but not too long or longwinded.
Thank you brother!
Thanks.
Do you know if I could install the thumb safety to a p320 that doesn't have one?
Thank you!!!
This should make the M17 compatible with any P320 grip frame correct?
The website where you can order the pin says to not use the standard trigger bar since it could hang up in the manual safety pocket and not allow a proper trigger reset. Is this true? Seems like there is talk sayings it’s fine vs not fine and you’ll need to get a non safety trigger bar lol
Will this work on a x carry frame without the cut on the module for the saftey ? New to sig since I’m coming from Glocks I just hate that saftey look on it ?
Do you need the safety lever pin or will it be fine without it?
great video thank yoU!
Thank YOU for watching! 🤙
I'm trying to find a manual safety for my M18 do you happen to have your old one or know anyone that is willing to sell theirs?
In all honesty once you remove the safety you can get a non safety grip module that is a full size. One without the overhang for the slide. Just gives you a bit of choice on your modules. Even the full size X Series will work great. Or just the full size standard.
Can you fire a m17 p320 withou a safety pin?
Can you post a link of the " Grip modulator" of this exact same size gun off the sig website that comes without the safety hole? I would really appreciate it, and I'm sure other people would also. The reason I ask is because I would like to buy the Grip modulator with out the hole so that way It stops the pin from coming out..
Where can I buy the safety pin ?
That links for pointing out the drawback to removing the manual safety
I have to remove the safety to my M18 just so I could fit it into the MCK with brace! :-(
- - -
Wish someone would make a MCK kit that would accept the Sig M17/18 with safety just so I don't have to go thru these extra steps and additional cost!
- - -
Could a couple pieces of thin plastic or even metal sheets be fitted and blocking the now exposed holes where the safety use to be?
What’s the name of the store there that sells this frame without the manual safety? Sigs website doesn’t seem to have the 320 frame for my m18 without the safety.
I can´t find this safety pin on Brownells, they are out of stock, somebody know where I can find?
I have the p320 with Manuel Saftey I like it you can carry cocked and locked gives you a sense of Saftey
It's definitely nice having that option, the main reason we are removing this one in particular is for Elizabeth (the owner of the gun) who was a brand new shooter, originally wanted it with the safety. Now after having shot it for a few months she said it's become a pest and gets in the way of her grip but it's all personal preference. I actually liked it and I usually hate a manual safety lol thanks for checking us out 👍
The hundreds of thousand of people who carry glocks disagree with you
Cocked and locked refers to the 1911 with a hammer being cocked and the safety on locking the slide, not a proper reference for a sticker fired pistol.
U can put super glue on the pin anyways is metal dosent affect nothing plus u can brake it of easy wen ever u want to remove it✌ theres also a glue for metals i build mashines for warehouse's and i recomend u locktie glue works super good
I'm currently trying to follow your video trying to remove the safety from my 17 but I've noticed that once it comes to pushing the pin out, the piece under the safety level actual prevents the safety pin to be popped out from my m17? Anyone know how to fix this?
That’s the same issue I am having
Is the gun drop safe now without the manual safety? It does look like the FCU that sig sells on their website but not sure if the safety is now in the trigger and the disconnector?
People that don't have safeties are too lazy to train drawing while removing the safety it's a thumb safety as you draw you're already removing the safety, and they're the same people complaining about "signs shooting by themselves" no shit you get a gun without a safety that doesn't block the firing pin and a stubborn gun manufacturer, and the whole bs about "lowest bidder" p320 and the m17 are technically different guns, the m17 is a lot safer to handle the the p320 I will never carry a p320 I carry the military version for that safety
What store in Raleigh sales them?
Righteous
You know 😎
Al hacer esto le puedo colocar una corredera normal de p320 y modificarla a mi gusto???
Mine didnt come with the external safety
Good thing I ordered WC frame and ordered the one with no safety cutout on accident, so I'll just get the 12 buck fix and no safety
So u do the exact same thing with the sig m18 to remove the safty lever?
Same gun with a slightly shorter barrel. So yes
I called them once to buy that part, to remove my safety to shoot uspsa faster. (Lil sister had my xfive) sig rep got pissed, said it can't be removed and we do not sell a part to replace it...i said but i already, removed it..he said impossible lol..not ripping on sig they have always taken good care of me for the many purchases I've made threw them. Even once sending me a xfive/oversized slide catch for my m17.
I like that people alwas say to check if its loaded first. Thats so burnt into my brain at this point, I dont think iv picked up a gun in the past 5 years without cheacking it. Even if I have just checked it 2 seconds ago
I’m just curious, why would you remove safety with the purpose of removing the safety? Why can you just get a Sigg without the safety to me is asking for trouble
Safety pin compatible on m18
Will any grub mod work? Will the x-series grip mods work? Will the x-five grip mod work
Yes as far as I know they all will work! I know from my own testing that the x carry, x5 and x5 legion frames will absolutely work.
Would the Polymer 80 p320 grip module work?
Mine doesn’t allow for that pin to be pushed in it’s blocked on the other side unlike yours
I ran into the same thing with my M18. When you remove the take down lever, it locks back the take down safety lever to the rear position (this is the black bar that hooks around the left side safety). However, if you pull the FCU out and lift the slide lock up, it resets the take down safety lever to the forward position, which will block the safety lever pin. If you look through the hole where take down lever comes out of, you'll see the take down safety lever partially blocking it if it's reset to the forward position. If you partially insert the take down lever, you can rotate it to lock the take down safety lever to the rear position which will unblock the safety lever pin.
What's the reason why many people dont like the safety??
Question is, can you remove safety and use the FCU in a grip module with no safety cut ??? I think that’s the reason you would like to remove the safety !
@@Marc-kq6vz thanks , I was going to remove it because I couldnt find any Wilson grip in Tan with for the M18 with the safety but just found one in armorycraft. Quick question, can you do a video on how to replace trigger shoe?
Absolutely u should get a module without the safety cut so ur pin does not fall out while shooting.. Which it definitely will if u leave the module with the safety cut on it
Why would you remove the safety?
Hi, would this be the same for the m18?
Yes
we look into barrel ensuring that there is no amo in it, we check and remove the magazine ensuring nothing stupid happens around and we are repeatedly using word "SAFETY "!
I went down all questions below and haven't seen any, like.... "why would you remove manual safety if it does exist?"
Can anyone enlighten me ? Tnx
Do you really need that safety pin to replace the safety ?
There are other things in there that hinge on the pin attached to the safety lever, so if you remove it, you need to replace it with a pin to keep things working.
All the other vids show u have to remove trigger bar or move the bar out and behind. I guess that's not necessary
Good video thanks !!!also thanks for being honest and showing how bad (not trying to be a dick) it looks with the stocks frame. Have a great day god bless
You're welcome brother thanks for checking us out 👍
0:39 why did you pull the trigger? It's not a glock.
Raleigh, NC?
Yessir 🤙
You got any other social media pages? I'm about 45 minutes east of you
Nice dude! Yeah my personal IG s michael_sauls and the channels IG is rma_arms 🤙
Wilson combat has a ton of p320 frames
Why would you remove a safety on a gun that comes with a safety??
Anyone that removed the safety and still has the parts can you PM me?
Here for my flux raider x help lol
I have used a 1911 all my life, so a safety is no big deal for me.
I don’t believe Sigg will approve of this
I just never use the safety
“This thing” “that thing” great job being descriptive…. Gonna get all those things out
Doesn’t make sense,just get the gun without a safety
Liz bought this gun with the safety as she was brand new to shooting. Once she became competent and confident in handling it she noticed the safety was getting in the way of her grip and wasn't using it much so she wanted it off. I figured there may be more people like that so I decided to make this for those people.
Thankyou I was waiting for someone to say that. 👍🏽
Just buy one without the safety 🤔🤔
Hard to find in some states
Or, and hear me out, you could just buy a regular 320
Too much technical jargon!
(Dude learn a word or two!)
So... if I get an M17, don't take off the safety. Got it. I don't think this one is such an atrocious afterthought that you should take it off. You can rest your thumb on it and shoot it like a 1911, but I guess some people just HAVE to turn their guns into Glocks.
I want to switch to an x carry frame after feeling how comfortable it was. So there isn't a hole in the frame for the safety and I think this is is the easier way to make it work when the other option is trying to cut out the windows for the safety
bruh how you gonna have us start removing a part and then tell us mid removal that we need A WHOLE FUCKING DIFFERENT PART AS WE'RE REMOVING IT!!! jeez you're gonna have ppl pissed tell them all the negatives before they start the process!!!
Typically people do their research before doing this lol
Dude seriously you need to learn the components before making videos. "This thing that thing this thing...."
Nobody understands "this thing that thing this thing"
