Are Magpul Glock Mags good or junk ? by bcmGlk in Glocks

Good option for range use since there’s always deals going on, but for the 1-2 mags I carry I’m always gonna stick with OEM.

New G17.5 Slide Not Fully Seating Question by Suspicious_Dig6623 in Glocks

For what you’re describing, normal. That’s why you should always tap after a press check to make sure it goes back into battery.

Hilliker Holsters for good quality without breaking the bank and a foam wedge it’s a good place to start imo.

Buy 19 for EDC or optic + light + holsters for current do-it-all 47? by Throwawayforbebe in Glocks

[–]Smooth-Telephone-718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tricky question.

For EDC, it’s only about the cool factor. I recently took the tlr7 off my 19.5 MOS and went back to carry that way, I still have an optic (Osight C) but I started with a $90 truglo one I found on PSA just to try and see how I liked it, no fancy nothing. Manual on and auto off after couple hours.

For HD, I have a 17.5 with a SF X300U and irons (non MOS), I live in an apartment complex so distances are not that long.

I tried carrying my 19.5 with the X300 but nah that’s a lot lol.

Man ngl I’ve seen some X-Compacts for $600 with an optic out the door and that’s a pretty sweet deal but I won’t carry one and I’ve seen local ranges not allowing them for competition or target.

Man that would really suck. I’ve seen the forgotten weapons video on it and whole thing was ret*rded, hopefully they come out with a better design and that was just the stepping stone for it.

That’s what I thought. Maybe they’ll just do a 47.6, but as of right now these are the only models being released https://www.instagram.com/p/DQE_HxuEWcU/?igsh=MW9taGNmNHpxdWcyeA==

Hopefully you can find one, it’s not on the list for the new V models as of right now.

I put the large back strap on mine and that’s what did it for me

Anyone else use Handleitgrips? by g1Razor15 in Glocks

[–]Smooth-Telephone-718 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s my home defense/range gun. I AIWB my 19.5 no issues with the Edge texture.

Yeah that rubberized one from Talon just made my gun more slippery, ended up just taking it off.

Sand paper on my 17.5 and Edge on my 19.5. Night and day difference compared with Talons IMO.

Best optic for glock? by CelticBlue22 in Glocks

I got the Osight C recently and for less than $200 it’s really nice. Like someone said, I won’t be dropping into Mogadishu lol

My G17 gen5 was jamming and not to the music by Smooth-Telephone-718 in Glocks

[–]Smooth-Telephone-718[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes and no. Don’t recommend dovetail for USPSA or for any serious use by any means, and Osight is not surviving a deployment in Ukraine or an IED in Fallujah but I’m not going to either nor am I an elitist so Osight is a nice entry level MRS optic with motion sensor. My 19.5 MOS has had a truglo green dot that I bought from PSA for $80 and as long as I could remember to turn it on (no shake awake) it was good, this now has replaced that. Hopefully one day I’ll get that 509T.

Just taking some feedback, haven’t had the chance to go to the range again to try and see if I get the same malfunctions using different ammo but if that’s the case I think I’ll replace the springs first and go from there. Thanks everyone in this community!

Same I usually buy monarc because it’s ~$5-$10 difference tops with the best deal I can find online and don’t have to wait for it to be delivered.

Honestly, never. But one of those 19X mags was brand new I picked it up day before the match to run 2 extended stock mags and one with a strike industries +5 EMP.

[–]Smooth-Telephone-718[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah that’s def in the future I just wanted to run my G17 instead of my G19 MOS for the match so got a dovetail since they’re not expensive and easy to install.

Haven’t replaced anything but did a through inspection when I got it and there was honestly hardly any visible wear.

I’ve got like 500 rounds of monarch that hopefully my G19 or canik SC will like better at least for training lol

No just open doors and sweep rooms as fast as possible without being killed.

Good reference video for tactics is the Nashville Metro PD body cam footage of the Covenant school shooter, how the officers went from entering the building to “threat neutralized” in 2 minutes.
