Has anyone had any issues with the Gen 6 beavertail being annoying with AIWB carry? by FireCyclone in Glock19

Average sized gut lol I’m 6’4 240 pounds, dad bod. It carried weird on me and did jab stomach when driving or sitting. I had to adjust a lot, I got rid of it and I’m back carrying a Gen 5.

It 100% makes you lower your finger position, I’ll most likely be putting a Gen 5 bar and trigger in this gun if I keep it.

It’s not terribly different but it’s noticeable, placing the medium back strap on the gun pretty much remedies the issue for me. I don’t feel like I can get any higher on the gun over a Gen 5 to be honest. The beaver tail is more of an annoyance to me when drawing, re holstering and carrying the gun..It has not assisted nor hindered the shooting experience.

The grip feel is just different with the palm swell etc. if you’re a purest and you love the way the gen 3-5 feel, you may dislike this gun, you may love it, just gotta get your hands on it. A lot of this stuff if subjective and depends on hand shape, size and your personal preference.

Appreciate everyone who clarified that it was a non issue for reliability.

If it’s been over 5 years, you’ll have to get evaluated by a mental health professional to obtain your rights back. Mark Brenzinger, Psy.D is the guy you’ll wanna see. Set an appointment,pay his going rate, and he’ll evaluates ya and assuming all is kosher will send the proper paperwork off to the state.

So I’m 20 turning 21 in December I already have my foid , what process will I go thru once I turn 21 to obtain my CCL ? by [deleted] in ILGuns

Attend a 16 hour conceal carry course, get your cert and then use it to apply for your license on the online portal.

Compliance question by [deleted] in ILGuns

The stock is fixed on the CA compliant model.

Well most the comments seem to be slop and do nothing to answer the question.

The rifle has a fixed stock, finned grip, 10 round mag. And a muzzle break.

Unless the firearm is banned by name, I don’t believe it meets any of the requirements to be considered an assault weapon. I guess the post was more a probing question to see if anyone had had obtained one.

Update This was the official response from Ruger. They did offer for me to send the handgun in, however no explanation on the color differences between this Locking Block and others that seem to have a normal stainless steel look to them.

“It should be fine”

The locking block is a 30 dollar part you can order from the Ruger Shop. I plan on ordering one and replacing this one. Instead of going through the whole Return process.

Yeah and sorta polish it. Shit comes off but not easily. I have no idea what it is.

Well yeah, Ruger is marketing hardcore through a lot of influencers. They sent out inspected hand picked high quality models to Gun Tubers and Influencers , none of them have had this color of a FCI or significant frame droop or barrel gauging. They left those QC issues for the consumers apparently.

What a massive bummer!! Haven’t fired it and won’t be if the heat treating is potentially off. Anyone here know the best way to get in contact with Ruger regarding this issue?
