I just love working on this thing!

Pics when you install it

My next purchases will be a compensator, and a 3.5 connector.

But trigger next!

OK - Trigger is on the dining room table, I have watched a vid....getting close!

And here it is. One more little silver tweak. Flat front triger

Looks nice

I was just so-so shooting it until I got that Jet funnel. I was never a fan of the grip, just not "me."

But once that thing was on...much better!!

So fun to work on.

That is the nice thing with most modern firearms, you can fine tune them to fit your needs/shooting style. Glad you enjoy the improvements.

So I've been getting a real hankering for a Gen 5 Glock 21. I like my Gen 3 and it's just like the one I carried for nearly 20 years on-duty. But the Gen 5 from what I've researched is notably thinner in the grip, I like the texturing better and I like the forward slide serrations. It's also suppose to be softer shooting (not that the Gen 3 is bad).

Was gaming with some friends I use to work with and one has a Gen 4 G21. It does feel thinner in the grip than the Gen 3. This is helping confirm the itch for a Gen 5 G21. The Gen 4 would be fine but I like the lack of finger grooves on the Gen 5's and the other upgrades including the forward serrations.

So I'm seeing some Gen2 Glocks show up as LEO trade ins. Any downside to grabbing one of these???
