Hello /r/glocks! I thought I'd share my rig along with some information about my setup in case anyone is interested in what I use.

I conceal carry a Glock 17, Gen 4 at 8-9 o'clock. I'm a big guy (6'6") with large hands and this gun fits me perfectly. It serves double-duty as a carry weapon and also as my primary home defense gun.

Here are the changes I've made to it:

  • Installed the large Glock backstrap.

  • Reversed the mag release since I'm a lefty.

  • Installed a Talon grip.

  • Installed a Pearce Grips frame insert under the grip.

  • Added Meprolight Tru-Dot night sights.

    Other equipment:

  • I use a Galco King Tuk IWB holster; I absolutely love this holster. It's got perfection retention and is very comfortable.

  • My carry belt is a Hank's Gunner Belt.

  • When the gun is not being carried, it lives inside a SpeedVault SV500 and has a Canwelum light attached to it. It's a great little light, and I also have one on my Mossberg 500.

  • For home defense I keep an extra 17 round and a 33 round Glock magazine nearby.

    So there it is, my Glock 17! I love this firearm and definitely recommend it for anyone looking at a full-sized gun for concealed carry or home defense.

That's the Mako one for like $30 on Amazon. I was testing it to see if an optic mount like that would be good for a reflex sight. It's not horrible (the concept of an optic that high off the bore axis), but i've realized that I want MOS milling.

I regret buying that cheap plastic thing. The light is great for the price (super bright and good strobe) and the reflex sight is ok once I got it dialed in. The Mako optic mount is crap. For starters, the part where the replacement trigger pin goes in extrudes into trigger guard area making it uncomfortable to shoot. The replacement front rail is too small and made my light fly off at the range (where it is normally snug on the Glock rail). Finally, it's a bear to get off.

I am getting alot of shit for the "mall ninja" accessories, but I'm glad I opted for cheaper to see what works well in my intended setup. Im glad I didn't spend $300 for an ALG (too high off bore axis), $300 for a brand-name light (this one is fucking bright), and glad the $20 reflex sight does pretty well. I can interchange it and my main red dot for my AR-15 in .22lr.

u/vdmsr · 6 pointsr/Glocks

I'll answer your questions then I'll give you my opinion/experience.

  1. Whatever is more cost effective as long as it DOES NOT remove or MOVE your iron sight position.
  2. RMR is the go to, but the Deltapoint (Leupold) is very nice.
  3. Done very easily as most kydex holsters will fit (and designed to fit) an RDS)
  4. low light = flashlights and lasers (think viridian, surefire or streamlight)

    My opinion on the matter:

    What kind of sights are you using? There are VERY high visibility sights available Trijicon HD or Ameriglo CAP, both of which I have used and would recommend to anyone with a G17. They are EXTREMELY high visibility sights.

    An RDS on a pistol has many pro's but the cons of them are HUGE. First off, the RMR is always on (non-battery/led), night time aiming is difficult and needs to be practiced a lot to get used to it. An RDS on a pistol will make the pistol nearly impossible to aim in the rain. The RDS gets wet you will have "bleed" of the dot because of the water on the glass. Have seen this in my personal experience and I am not a huge fan of RDS's partially because of this. Same line of thought, you hit your gun on something, breaking the glass, your gun is not difficult to aim with - you can always point shoot or try to slide-align (not accurate).

    If defensive situations are your real goal, then a red or green laser on your G17 will be hundreds of times more effective than an RDS. Also, low light, white light, may wash out the RDS entirely, depending on the RDS and the setting (TLR1 HL washing out the RMR, from what I have seen, same with some of the higher power surefires).

    Lastly, what is the price of getting all this done to your G17? RMR = $500 on a good day, slide work and/or new slide = $500, that's being liberal with the prices. Buy yourself a laser/light combo, get a good kydex holster for it and call it a day.
u/jesus_zombie_attack · 6 pointsr/Glocks

Yeah it's all metal so no plastic to break from recoil. Goes on and off very easily. Good bright light for a great price. His light looks like this one.

u/conipto · 12 pointsr/Glocks

They are expensive, but I put these sights on my 43X and it made a world of difference for me: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B018IP3QCM/ref=oh_aui_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1

​

Still not my favorite gun to shoot - the thinner grip with my larger hand makes it a little awkward to get a good grip and a quality trigger pull, but the slimness and reliability make it worth being a solid carry choice anyway. Sights that are bright and rapid to acquire in all conditions are a must. The stock glock sights leave a lot to be desired.

​

I sent you the amazon link instead of the TruGlo site because they are literally 65 bucks cheaper there if you decide to get an upgrade.

u/spook777 · 3 pointsr/Glocks

Are you going to put an RMR or Holosun on it? If yes then you need suppressor sights. If you plan to only do red dot then blacked out sights would be the most budget route. Ameriglo blacked out suppressor sights

I picked up some of these Ameriglo suppressor sights with Orange front dot but realized even tho I like the orange front sight I’m not a fan of the blackout rear sights. So next time around will go for these Ameriglo 3 dot suppressor sights

If you aren’t going red dot and are just happy to have that option, I recently bought these Meprolight Tru-Dot Night Sights for my Glock 19 and they’re only $47 on Amazon. I also picked up these TRUGLO Fiber-Optic Sights but I’m not really a fan of Fiber optics and I gave them to my friend for his Polymer80 build.

Not sure about comps. I can’t have them in CA, but I’ve bookmarked a few for when I move out of state. Legion Precision, Killer Innovations, Archon Manufacturing, Tyrant Designs T-Comp, Agency Arms (Brownells 11% coupon code “HAA”), or Arc Division Arc Sparc.

If you want to do without the threaded barrel, Dark Hour Defense makes a rail mounted comp.

Congrats. I have a few 19s and a 26 and added the 43 about a month ago. The 43 has replaced the 26 as my EDC CCW. Love it.

Options I've enjoyed at a reasonable cost if you're looking for upgrades without breaking the bank:

u/asking_reddit1 · 1 pointr/Glocks

I want a TLR light it's just the price right now. I have a small LED I keep with my 19 but I want a light on it. Just after the 19, sights, safe, rounds, CWP costs, etc I am about $1k into it.

I would like to find a cool kith that wasn't $200-$300 and decent as a temporary until I invest $200-300 into a TLR with light and laser.

Considering the Amazon reviews I might get this : Hilight 300 Lumen Pistol LED Strobe Flashlight with Weaver Quick Release https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0036S5W42/ref=cm_sw_r_awd_eAZfub0FMDS9S

u/matthew7s26 · 2 pointsr/Glocks

BUY THIS SAFARILAND.

I really can't say enough good things about this holster. I used Safariland exclusively professionally and these new 7TS models are even better now. And at less than $35 you won't get a better bang for your buck. Incredibly lightweight, strong, impervious to the elements, and all-around perfect as far as I'm concerned. The ALS retention system is my absolute favorite active-retention system that I've used. Safariland or bust for me.

u/dagamore11 · 1 pointr/Glocks

I put these on my glock17 and love them, but I like the taller sights, they work better for me, and give me the option of a can down the road.

Welcome to the club! Love the G43x. Gotta change the sights out though.

u/Oregon213 · 1 pointr/Glocks

I really like this one:

Sentry Safe Biometric Quick... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00EXQW672?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

The finger scan access has been reliable and the gas strut opening is ideal for where/how I use mine.

u/robocop88 · 1 pointr/Glocks

Don't really need to bring cleaning supplies to the range IMHO. I like the Howard Leighton electronic ear pro.

Howard Leight by Honeywell Impact Sport Sound Amplification Electronic Earmuff, Classic Green (R-01526) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001T7QJ9O/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_1JTBybE95PQGA

If you don't want electronic ones then any ear pro for shooting from 3m, peltor, and Howard Leight is a good call.


As far as a range bag goes, of its just the one gun then I would think too hard about it. Most range bags are overpriced tactical fashion accessories. I've spent money on nice ones for 2 and 3 gun competitions because the extra organization and protection is nice. When I'm taking just my Glock 19 to the range I chuck it in a tool bag.


If you really want a purpose built one that isn't too expensive I'd recommend this one:

BlackHawk Pistol Range Bag SPORTSTER Bag Black Nylon 74RB02BK https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001LZPNWS/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_qQTByb4XVAB2A

u/9mmIsBestMillimeter · 20 pointsr/Glocks

I'm not only pretty impressed with its specs and features on paper (will have to wait to see how it actually performs) but I'm honestly fine with the price: you're paying for the engineering, guys, very very little of what you pay for a gun goes into the cost of the materials for it so no, it doesn't really matter that it uses much less material than a G17 as regards the price, no that shouldn't really make a difference.

I mean do you really think that even a decent portion of what you pay for a G17, for example, goes towards the polymer and metal used to make it? Come on. I think I recall reading somewhere (believe it was that book on Glock by Paul Barrett) that the cost of materials to make a Glock 17 was around $70. When you buy a G17 you're getting about 70 bucks worth of plastic and steel, that's it...and about $500 worth of superb engineering to make sure it goes bang every time including and especially when it's your ass on the line, so quit bitching...

The only problem is that I've got a Kahr PM9 that has been just absolutely fantastic so I'm really going to have to work hard to find an excuse to buy this thing, though I probably will eventually.

u/C6R882 · 2 pointsr/Glocks

The first thing you need to upgrade is the sights. I highly recommend the Trijicon HD XR with an orange front post, but it also comes in yellow. Both sets will have glow in the dark tritium inserts for all three indicators.

If you’re relying on it for self defense, I wouldn’t change anything else. Just get a holster your comfortable with.

u/19Kilo · 1 pointr/Glocks

Get the sight pusher if you think you might own more than one Glock or if you might want to experiment with a couple different sight setups.

I've got one pretty much like this and it's more than paid for itself.

Edit - There's also this one for the front sight. I have this, but it was really too deep for me, so I filled most of the socket with Gorilla Glue and it's perfect now.

u/Devan94 · 1 pointr/Glocks

Consider giving this book a read OP. It won't give you the kind of part number or dimension details you're looking for, but it's a great history of the Glock pistol

u/TophatsNTaters · 3 pointsr/Glocks

The awesome thing is that Dawson supplies the tools you need for both the front and rear sights.


I would say that a bench vice is required though. Took quite a bit of hammering to install the rear sight. I clamped the slide in between two wooden blocks wrapped in duct tape, and wrapped the included punch tool in duct tape as well. Managed to install everything without marring or scratching the finish.


Not sure what you mean by trigger tool. If you mean the pins, I've found that this disassembly tool works great for a bunch of stuff, but any pin punch should work fine if it's small enough.

u/macbooklover91 · 1 pointr/Glocks

As far as ear pro goes I use these a lot - https://smile.amazon.com/SureFire-Defenders-filtered-Earplugs-reusable/dp/B001V2SS9G/

I have some in my bag, and I keep a pair in my car. They're cheap enough to have a few pairs, but nice enough to use again and again. I especially like them because I can double up on ear pro when I go to an indoor range and they sit flush with my ear.

If you want to listen to music while you shoot, get the Howard Leights. I have them and often listen to music when I have the range to myself.

[The one I bought.](Fixxxer American Flag Slide Cover Plate for Glock https://www.amazon.com/dp/B005N00DTK/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_7ChByb9XHA01Q) Its made of aluminum and etching looks great!

u/MoGains · 1 pointr/Glocks

This is the one I purchased a month ago. Same idea as the one in your link. Very easy to take on and off, and no wiggle. Very bright too. I had my girlfriend point the light at me across our house and it was near blinding at night.

u/timesplitter88 · 2 pointsr/Glocks

As far as brands go, I would take a look at Agency Arms, Overwatch Precision, or SSVI. Those brands in my opinion all appear to be the safest in terms of drop safety for after market triggers.

You should be able to install the trigger yourself using only a Glock Tool (IE: Do not use a hammer ever to do this!) which is literally just a small handy punch or really any punch of the same size for that matter.. There are plenty of videos on youtube on how to do this. The trigger will come assembled on to the trigger bar already, so when you replace it, you will be replacing the entire trigger bar / trigger shoe assembly. Its not really that hard.

u/CrimsonMKII · 5 pointsr/Glocks

Much of this has been detailed in the book titled Glock - The Rise of America's Gun. It was a decent read and interesting look into Gaston's personal life. I had expected the book to highlight Gaston as a stand up man. My view of his firearms is far different than his character.

http://www.amazon.com/Glock-The-Rise-Americas-Gun/dp/0307719952

It is very interesting having read the book to see Helga Glock's lawsuit updated in the news.

u/givebaconTheVote · 1 pointr/Glocks

If you haven't already bought one, this is what I got. It's a much better bargain than the 30 dollar Glock sight tool. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000O5ILUM/ref=oh_details_o01_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

u/JamesonOnTheRocks · 1 pointr/Glocks

Leave the copper colored factory grease on the slide until it's gone. Hit up the range with a few hundred rounds. Some people clean the gun before firing. I just lubed the slide a little and fired 300 rounds before my first cleaning.

I have this https://www.amazon.com/Trijicon-Suppressor-White-Outline-Models/dp/B00BRGT7IW with my osprey on my g19. The rear sights leave a little to be desired in daytime. At night, they all glow nice and I use them as an indicator to the way to my cot.

u/Botan_is_angry · 1 pointr/Glocks

He's only posted dick comments that I've seen. Don't pay him any mind. As far as the trigger, it's really easy. Buy a punch for 6 dollars (Glock 03374 Disassembly Takedown Tool for Pin Punch https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0014VX2M2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_1q5YAb2W9YKPA) and watch a video. It's way more easy than you think. Make sure the gun is unloaded and do the work in a room with no ammo nearby. When you remove the trigger pin make sure you don't hammer it too much. Wiggle it around, usually toward the nose of the gun, and it will press out. Pull the trigger forward and twist and the crucifix comes out, unhook the spring and put it on the new trigger and do everything again in reverse. Took me 4 minutes the first time I did one. As long as you don't hurt yourself, you can't really hurt anything by trying

u/CoffeeSwirler · 0 pointsr/Glocks

I CCW my G19 and it goes to the range in my IWB holster, and I use a Scout Sling Pack that I bought off of Woot.com to hold my mags and gear.

I also used http://camelcamelcamel.com to buy my earmuffs at a reduced price. I don't like paying full price on anything if I can help it.

BTW, I have 6 30+ round mags that I bring in my bag loaded because I don't want to spend a majority of my range time reloading mags. If you do need to reload, you'll want to have a Maglula.

u/cosmos7 · 2 pointsr/Glocks

Either will work. Meprolight makes the OEM ones, and the OEMs are certainly the most affordable on the market. If you're going to spend the money on the Trijicons spend a little more and get the HD ones.

u/screwthis0125 · 1 pointr/Glocks

Ive been doing some testing on this http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B008H9FLE6/ref=od_aui_detailpages00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 light for the last 3 months. It's held up through over 2000 rounds of 9mm out of my m&p9c. Its still still very tight and very bright.

I used it for carry for 1 of the 3 months, but the bulk in my pants (insert joke here) was uncomfortable, so I removed it.

It will service fine as a nightstand light IMHO.

http://imgur.com/XW2zXaH

If it's a serious carry gun, I recommend the TLR1 (G19), or TLR3 (m&p9c). I use those when I go OWB.

I'll probably catch some hate, but I got the HiLight P10S on Amazon. 1,000 rounds+ with it on and zero issues so far.

The control sticks out pretty far so I would not recommend it if you ever intend to carry the gun.

I use this bag as a gear bag. I use this bag as a pistol bag. I use these ear muffs for pistol shooting and sometimes for rifle shooting but I find they get in the way with a rifle. So with a rifle, I usually just use these ear plugs.

They work excellent,even inside a small 4-5 lane room. Not bulky or prone to falling off if you decide to do some run and gun.

I have some of these https://www.amazon.com/Howard-Leight-Amplification-Electronic-R-01526/dp/B001T7QJ9O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1483656955&sr=8-2&keywords=electronic+ear+protection+for+shooting (if you were looking for electronics) and honestly they are shit. They are good for outdoor, but if you are inside a range I would not recommend them. Especially if you are shooting/near bigger calibers and rifles.

"Gaston Glock enjoyed showing off the Glock 18, a fully automatic version of the pistol. Depressing the trigger of the Glock 18 unleashes a stream of bullets in the fashion of a machine gun. It can hold a capacious thirty-three-round magazine that sticks out of the gun’s grip and empties in a matter of seconds. Unless the user is familiar with the Glock 18, its enormous recoil results in the barrel jumping upward. Many an embarrassed police officer inadvertently peppered the ceiling of the company shooting range with rounds. Unavailable on the civilian market, the Glock 18 is designed for police SWAT squads and military special-ops units. Rolling it out for visitors to Smyrna remains a Glock marketing practice."
