Glock Magwell question

[TrevorF]

Zev used to make a solid brass magwell with a large brass grip plug insert. Not sure why but they discontinued that item. Is anyone else making a solid brass magwell for gen 3 glocks? Or does anyone know if there's a Canadian dealer still stocking them?

Thanks,
Trevor

but - sorry - they're not brass.

I’ve always used polymer or lightweight magwells with my glocks. What is the idea behind the brass ones...why add weight to a gun that is designed to be lightweight and easy to manoeuvre?

Just curious...

by adding non-rotational mass at the far points from the center of rotation (weighted magwell or flashlight under the muzzle) it reduces felt recoil.

Apologies Sean, I forgot that you sold them.

Interesting....I've never really had a problem with felt recoil with a glock because you can get a very high grip on them....but I have only shot 9mm glocks.

Same principle as a steel magwell and weighted grips on a single stack 1911.

I am aware of the light weight Dawsons. I used a solid brass on my Glock 35 and would like the same on my Glock 34.
