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.
