Since I had them out for lubing, it was the perfect time for a group photo and of course to make a celebratory Glocktober post. Please forgive me if I miss something. We have a couple of 17.5’s, 17.3, 43x, 19.5v, mos & non mos, 19.4, 19x & 19.5 slide, 35.4, 17l, 45.5, 19.6, 17.6, and a 45.6. YOLO (Forgive the crappy image. Perhaps I should invest in a camera)

G45x2 (duty and personal), G43x, and my newest fat baby G26. Clearly, I have a thing for grip tape.

Just got my Glock 45 gen5 slide back from Wager. Took exactly three weeks (Two weeks to process). Black nitride coating. Dawson suppressor height blacked out irons (from Wager). Very happy with the work. I've been apprehensive about getting the slide milled, but after reading the feedback on here, I decided to take the plunge. Been running irons, Ameriglo night sights, since 2020. Can't wait to zero it this weekend. I've otherwise kept it stock except for some strips of talon grips, and I polished up the trigger bar and connector with some flitz. This is going to be my winter carry. My second Tenicor is on the way.

I currently own and compete with a Gen 5 Glock 47. I love it, but want to explore the gen 6s.

I have heard that because of the recoil spring change the recoil impulse is different.

Between the Gen 6 Glock 17 and Gen 6 Glock 45 which feels closest the the Gen 5 G47?

Would love to hear some feedback, especially from any fellow competitors with high round counts on the platform.

What do yall think?

Bought this slide a few years ago and just recently really started to enjoy it. Super fun at the range, if anyone else has this tell me what you think. Personally I think it’s a beast and eats the recoil.

I bought this surefire and I’m almost positive it’s a clone the serial number reads 117029 no letter in the front there’s no 1000 lumen print on the bottom comparing it to other 1000 lumen lights I have it’s comparable tho the battery latch button sticks out beyond the metal rails the white on the lettering is very bright. The only things that are convincing it may be real is the lettering inside the battery cover which isn’t 100% either. Keep in mind the mounting system was bought straight from surefire.

Stupid MD Glock ban making me spend more money.

20 miles cycling across town with the 43x hugging my ween. The Aegitec belt really is stupid comfortable.

So, I live in Washingron state and I want to get a 17 before the new stupid permit to purchase law starts in 2027.

I've been searching for a 17.5 or even a 47 but I can't find any stores that will ship to Washington because of the 10 round magazine limit.

I was able to find a regular non mos 17.5 at a local store for $650. I know the new 17.6 are going for $620.

I am still hesitant about purchasing the new 17.6 with the mushy trigger and new design. I have had a 20.5 and 19.5 both mos and have had no problems with them.

My question is should I just pay more for the older model and probably even more whenever I get it cut for an optic? I know people are saying the trigger on the 17.6 improves with use. I usually just don't like purchasing any product that is a new model until all the problems are discovered and fixed after the initial run.

Thanks for your help.

I just went to the range a few days ago to try and rent a few different compacts and sub compacts. I ended up with a Glock 43x MOS. I compared it to a Springfield Hellcat Pro OSP. I also shot a P365, a regular Hellcat, a Canik Prime MC9, and a SW bodyguard something? The 43x just gets it done. Too many other sub compacts have just enough published issues to keep me away (Canik MC9, FN Reflex, HK CC9, etc). I’m a Springfield guy through and through (my current EDC has been a super reliable Springfield XD-9 Sub-Compact Mod.2, but the Glock just surprised me and it was time to upgrade to something a little thinner, lighter and optics ready.

Same range, same 15’ distance. Same ammo. The 43x put up a 10 shot 2” group while the Hellcat Pro mustered a best 6.5” group for 10 shots.

Picked up the 43x today. Picking up a Holosun 507k 2/32 MRS green dot optic on Saturday. Wanted a EPS MRS, but I’m getting a super good deal on the 507…so for now, it’ll do.

The carry guns and the whole family with special appearance from the 17.4 customized when GoT and cerakote customization were all the rage.

Glock 19 gen 4

Bradec holster

Hey all. I carry currently in a vedder light tuck and while it works, it’s got some hot spots. It sits about the height I’d like but slightly higher would be preferred. Prefer without magazine carrier unless it makes it more comfortable. I’ve also got a 4 bros dad bod holster which is also mostly comfortable.
I have a slight belly but carry appendix all day in comfort. When I say mostly comfortable I do get slight pressure on the edges of the bottom corners of the holster at times.
I’m 6’ 190lb

I figure 9mm is the Gold standard, and .22 is cool all the way around and I don’t have any other option slots on the poll. Which Caliber won’t you purchase a Glock in?

Mags get filthy. Clean your mags once in a while. Can’t recommend cleaning 60 mags at the same time though….

Some Glock owners take the whole “it never needs cleaning” thing a little too seriously. Yes, the gun and the magazines do need occasional cleaning and appropriate maintenance to stay functioning in a high volume training role. This pic is after the parts were cleaned. Look at the baseplates for clues about how these training mags get treated. This is the first time the mags have been cleaned in about couple years and it will be a couple years before they get cleaned again.

I bought the gen6 g19 coa and I really love the optic. So I’ve been looking at one for my gen4 17. I came across this and am I missing something, I don’t like this gun at all but…

Rugged obsidian 45 suppressor had me giggling like a school girl yesterday off the back porch shooting !

Hey y'all, the mag on the left doesn't work with my magpul magwell, but the other one does. When was that fixed?

Thanks,

Anyone recently ordered an ace legacy special directly from triggertech? If so how long did it take them to ship out? TIA
