Installed glock works competition springs and now I hear a rattle when the is not cocked but no noise when it is cocked. Any ideas?

That would be normal.

Yep, if it doesn't rattle, then that means that you probably work for the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Dept and probably sprayed oil into your firing pin channel.   The cure for a non-rattling Glock is to blast out the firing pin channel with non-chlorinated brake cleaner and make sure to never get ANY oil in that little tunnel.

Should rattle when not "cocked," mine do.

Just be sure that you don't overstress the subfractionator!

Never mind the widgetetroninomonator, it's a serious bitch to replace.

It's the "glockenspiel"!  Means all is normal.

And whatever you do, don't tune your flux capacitor to D Flat. You know how people end up with Glocknades? They tune the Flux Capacitor to D Flat instead of A Sharp.
