→Where can I find 15 round 9mm magazines that are interchangeable for the Glock 17 and 19?

2006-07-28 19:34:14

I'm researching prices for 15 round 9 mm magazines. The solicitation I would like to bid on calls for them to fit 'Glock 17/19'. The only ones I can find are for the Glock 19. Do you think there is a misprint in the solicitation or am I just missing something? I don't know anything about guns. Thanks for the help.

Go here and ask them. I don't much care for Glocks but someone on this site should have an answer http://glocktalk.com/

→Glock concealment help please?

2007-11-12 01:47:28

I am looking for a Glock attatchment that looks like metal clips that attatch to the back and runs down the side of the gun to attatch it to my bullet-proof vest (they just clip onto the velcro strap), I've seen other officers that have these and I can't find them anywhere... I have a kangaroo holster now and my backup (Glock 19) falls out into my shirt when I bend over to search vehicles (hate it, do not buy!)... any help would be appericiated!

You can get the Glock clipdraw for a 19, for as low as $18.00 plus shipping on ebay. It replaces your slide cover plate. Very easy to install. This is the link to one listing - there were dozens on eBay: http://cgi.ebay.com/Clipdraw-GS-B-for-Glock-17-19-22-23-26-27-31-32-33-36_W0QQitemZ110189942001QQihZ001QQcategoryZ73975QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

→Should I get my glock with the compensator?

2007-08-02 03:31:27

I'm planning on buying a glock 19, i've delliberated quit a bit on it. I like that ammo is affordable, readily avalible, relatively low recoil, and has substanitial ballistic performance. also the 15 round clip is a plus, I plan on stacking it w/ 2fmj, 2hp, 2fmj, 3hp, 1 fmj, 1wc, 3hp, 1wc. I don't plan on keeping a round in the chamber because though I know the glock is safe from my mistakes I don't want it to fire if someone else manages to get their hands on it and pulls the trigger. It will be my first personal gun, I'm getting it for 2 main reasons; 1, I'm a bartender and walk home late at night hopefully with a good deal of cash in my pocket; 2, I think it is likely that at some point in my lifetime $hit is going to "hit the fan" no better time than the present to start working towards proficiency with a tool of self defence. So I've thought all that out, my question here is; what does the compensator do exactly? am I better with it or without it? the $30 differnce is no concern. 2 out of 4 comments so far have cautione against carrying mixed loads. my question is, have you ever been in a combat situation? i have it on good experienced authority that mixed loading saves lives. in real life, as opposed to on the range, your target will almost certainly be moving and taking cover, likely be shooting back at you, and possibly be numerous. Multiple types of rounds accessible in a single clip gives you an indispensible advantage. one of them said when i asked him about a compensator "meh, they're a neat idea, but i'm not really into that fancy shit" sorry, i think i'll stick to the advice of people i know on this subject.

Answered By: LawGunGuy

First I'll preface by saying that I've shot every single Glock that's been manufactured. Yes, even the G18 WITH a shoulder stock. With that said, I think the compensator does do a decent job of reducing muzzle flip, which is already not any big deal in the 9mm G19. It's just a BITCH to clean. You'll have a lot more copper and powder fouling on the top of your gun and in the ports, which will require more scrubbing to get off. Personally, if you're looking to carry concealed, you may want to consider a G26, since its a bit more compact. But if you're looking to hit the range a lot, the 19 is better. My two carry guns are a S&W 342PD in 38special and a Glock 36 in 45acp. I carry the S&W while I'm in a suit going to and from work and I carry the G36 mostly in the cooler months, where the larger gun is more concealable. The G36 can be tough to conceal if you're wearing a t shirt, which may draw attention to you. The G36 is also smaller than the 19 you're looking at by a little bit. Now with your ammo choices...what are you thinking?!?!? You DO NOT want to carry a mixed load EVER. You actually want to put wad cutters, hollow points and full metal jackets in the samg magazine? Dude! Stick with the load I use in my G19, the Speer Gold Dot 124grain +P load. Load the WHOLE mag up with it and if someone tries to rob you, you'll brighten their world one bullet at a time. You should also carry WITH a round chambered, as in a shoot or die situation, you WILL NOT have time to rack the slide and engaged your targets effectively. You can drill yourself all you want, but the safest way (so you live) to carry is with a loaded chamber. If you don't have the discipline to carry with one in the tube, you probably aren't comfortable enough with a pistol yet and you should not carry. PS. You may want to think of a 5 shot J frame S&W like I have. I carry in a pocket holster and can have my hand discretely in my pocket holding the gun in my hand without having the need to draw it if there were unsavory characters around. Good luck in your purchase! EDIT TO ANSWER YOUR UPDATE: I've been trained by the Emergency Services Units of two New York police agencies, I've been trained by an US Army West Point marksman's team to shoot high power matches with AR15's and my gun knowledge goes beyond "normal people" since its my big hobby. I've read what people have written about mixed loads and I'll give you the HUGEST, most dangerous downfall of mixed carry loads - Point of Impact changes. When you have a firearm like mine, that will shoot dead bullseyes with a load that you're used to, then that FMJ load pops up and the POI changes by 2" up and 2" right. You may have just missed the guy and hit someone behind him. As its been said to me, as a person carrying a pistol, you have a duty to protect yourself as well as to prevent injuries to unarmed and innocent parties. If you have that proverbial head shot that is the only thing you can take and suddenly you can't, because you don't realize what bullet is up next, you're screwed. Shoot and carry ONE bullet. In fact, if you don't believe me, contact your local police and ask to speak to their Firearms and Tactics section sergeant. Give him your concerns and see how fast he gets irate with the suggestion of carrying multiple loads. Its just a hideously bad idea. What are the credentials of the person who suggested carrying 3 different loads? What are the benefits of multiple loads? Why not carry the BEST bullet available? The one I mentioned is a GREAT performer. I've also recently tested a 40S&W TAP load in my Glock 27. We were shooting bottles and windshields to see deflection and penetration. The TAP load penetrated 5 windshields and had velocity left over to lodge itself in the wood backstop. The speer gold dot load I mentioned was also damned close in performance. This load is what NYPD has adopted and what I exclusively shoot through my pistols, unless someone else shoots, which I then give them UMC FMJ's. I'll also address what you typed: i have it on good experienced authority that mixed loading saves lives." Who is the authority? They are most definitely wrong. "in real life, as opposed to on the range, your target will almost certainly be moving and taking cover, likely be shooting back at you, and possibly be numerous." - Yes, and what advantage does the mixed mag give you? There is NO advantage, since the bullets will recoil differently and perform differently. Now if you want to carry different MAGS of ammo, that's fine. But a WAD CUTTER is NEVER, EVER a good defensive load in a semi auto pistol. Never! "Multiple types of rounds accessible in a single clip gives you an indispensible advantage." - Have them tell you what advantage there is. Because it has nothing to do with engaging bad guys, increased accuracy or knock down power. You're best off with your best bullet with each pull of the trigger, since you'll know what it'll do every time you pull the trigger. Any other questions, you can IM me and I'll be happy to explain anything.

→Is the recoil on a glock 23 pistol signifiganly worse then that of a 19?

2007-04-11 10:31:48

I am not a huge fan of recoil, so the G19 is perfect in a lot of ways. Very controlable, fast followup shots. But I do want something with a little "more stopping" and have been told .40 is a much better round. I live in NJ so I cannot rent the gun. But I have shot a G22, and because of the large frame I didn't mind the kick. Is the kick in the compact .40 worse? need advice please.

Answered By: Gemma

I don't think it's that much more noticable...but, I shoot a 21 (.45), so after the hand cannon, everything seems kind of light. If you're using a hot round, you may want to go to a heavier recoil spring, such as 18 or 20 lb.

→How big a difference, in felt recoil is there between factory ported glocks and the standard models?

2007-07-10 14:08:37

I have a standard glock 19 for duty use, and a glock 26 for off duty carry. I am thinking about getting another 19 for home defense (the wife loves my 19 duty gun). Night sights and a light are a must, but how big a difference does the factory porting really make? Does the porting drastically change felt recoil, or does the added cost out weigh the overall gain? I usually have my 26 and 19 loaded with speer gold dot 147+p hp's. In the little glocks, the speers really pack a bang. The recoil has never really been an issue for me. But if the porting makes a MAJOR difference, it may be worth the money for my wife's gun. Do the porting holes open up the slide innards to a major dirt fest? I have never even held a ported glock, that's what all the questions are about. Thanks for any feedback!

Answered By: Brian C

There were a few guys in the academy that had compensated Glock 23's. They definitely reduce felt recoil, but you get the big jets of fire that shoot out the top. It's pretty crummy for night vision retention. We had to wear our caps and shooting glasses at the range, and they made us shoot in all different positions, like the high tuck and with the pistol tucked into our guts. When the guys with the comped Glocks shot from the gut position, it blew their caps off because of the ports.
