Custom Glock

[serialsolver]

I decided to get a new Glock and turn it into my version of the Perfect Packing Glock. This was an effort to correct the things about Glocks I don’t like. Since the big Glocks are just a bit to big for my hand and I have more .40 cal. items I settled on the model 22 for this project. I added night sights to it, a minus connector and a New York 1 trigger spring. I radius the trigger safety to match the radius of the trigger face. I then sent the frame to Cold Bore Customs to have a grip reduction done and the grip retextured to remove the hump at the bottom of the grip. Now I finally have a Glock that I really like and is my new constant companion.





Next I got a real good deal on a new model 22 with the rough texture frame. I thought it might be a good test bed for one of those new small red dot sights that I have been reading about on the “tacticool” forums. Since iron sights are getting harder to see with my 50 year old eyes I have been trying lasers and now this red dot. I’m just beginning to work with the red dot having only mounted it and not yet shot the weapon but it looks promising. I’m glad the JPoint fits in my preferred holster, a Milt Sparks Summer Special 2 and is still concealable.

I like the straight grip of the first one. Have you gotten a chance to fire either one yet?

[serialsolver]

Very nice setup! Because it is a lot like mine.

I had my Glock 19 sent off to one source tactical to have the slide milled to accept the same sight, and added suppressor sights. They cowitness with the dot in the RMR. This is a very good setup for people with old guy eye, like me. Here is a link to The pics.

I like the way that Glock is set up. I am still trying to get use to the red dot Glock. At the draw I’m still hunting for the dot. Once found it is fast and accurate. It’s a new trick this old dog is trying to learn. If I get anymore serious about it I’ll get the slide milled to set the dot lower. I’m getting to like red dots better than lasers. I have always been able to see the red dot in different conditions. I cant say that for the laser.

So what is this scenario that this one is set up to cover??

I'd say coons on the deer feeder at night.

2 dogs, who milled the slide on the glock?

[2 Dogs]

SS, I had it milled by One Stop Tactical. They also installed the taller suppressor sights and Cerrokoted my slide.

Serialsolver -- very cool

Quite some time ago, I had Dane Burns do his frame reduction on my old G20, 10mm. It's still a handfull, but much less blocky feeling than it was. Here's a picture from Dane's website

I have a JPoint on a Freedom Arms .475 LB and a Burris Fastfire on one of the new Ruger Threaded 22/45s -- they are great for older eyes, but I also find myself frequently "searching" for the dot.

Fermin, you've got the coolest stuff. How loud is the report on you suppressed glock? About a month ago I was at the range and someone was shooting a suppressed, full auto 9mm short rifle and it wasn't quiet at all. He said he was using subsonic ammo -- maybe the longer barrel increased velocity over the subsonic threshold.

Hi Paul, I might have a couple of little nifty items but having friends like you is the coolest part! We tested the suppressed 9mm indoors. Its not like the movies. Its "suppressed" not dead quiet. We also tried the same suppressor on a 22 pistol. Again, pretty quiet but not totally quiet.

Like you, I'm fixing to put a small dot sight one of my FAs. Just gotta decide WHICH one!!!!
