Crossed over to the dark side.

[JohnMc]

So I crossed over to the dark side I bought a Tupperware gun. Found a deal on a 3rd gen Glock 17.
Any recommendations for the new glock owner? Aftermarket parts, ammo, holsters, cheapest place for mags?

-Replace the sights first - I like the Meprolights (Mandatory).
-3.5# connectors are very nice (Optional).
-Extra Mags (Optional)

Done.

Don't bother with the 3.5# connector. There is a reasonable chance the 3.5# connector drops it below 5# actual pull weight, and then isn't production legal.

Sights: I MUCH prefer Heinies to Mepros. What are we going to do with night sights in a country where you can't legally shoot in the dark?

Get lots of extra magss. $30 from poilce ordnance.

With the NY1 trigger and the 3.5 connector you have an 8.5 lb trigger pull that is sweet......

Glocks are crap. You won't like it. You should send it to me. :wink: :lol:

 

[HKfan]

You cant go wrong with a Glock, unless there was the option to buy an HK first. :wink: :lol:

+1 - I shoot at night ALL the time! It's legal at my range

The only accessories you need for Glock's are more magazines... and ammo :twisted:

Welcome to the Glock side...

Anothe vote here for Heinie sights, ans well as the 3.5# connector and NY Spring.

Also, consider adding grip tape like AGrip or Decal Grip, and I recommend the extended mag release for it too.

Let me rephrase: Anywhere in Canada you are allowed to shoot in the dark has a lightswitch.

Heinie Slant Pro sights, straight eights if you want night sights. I have them on my G17, also had them on my Para P16 and G19.

3.5 pound connector. I haven't tested one that didn't make a 5 pound trigger pull. Mine consistently breaks around five pound three ounces on a lyman digital trigger tester.

Extra mags.

CR Speed belt, ghost holster & CR Speed mag pouches.

I've no experience with the Guga Ribas mag pouches but they look good.

The CR Speed holster is good, the ghost seems a little bit smoother.

No need to change anything else, if you plan to shoot IPSC Production Division you can't apart from adding grip tape or an A-Grip.

Nope. That's still crazy talk. We're probably going to be doing some outdoor night matches this fall. The only lighting will be whatever people drag along with them.

Most of my ancesters were Scots and that make me frugal (cheap). I would shoot the G17 as is and then decide for myself what needed to be altered. Regards, Richard
