I put all of these parts on the gun but have a few extra springs and three guide rods. I kept all the old parts for emergency. The gun has a 2.5-3lb trigger pull and runs so clean. I love it. A few friends that fired it when it was original were like it's ok and now they are like wow I would buy one. Lol
 
Have been away from the firearms world for a while now but glad to see that my thread has been a help to some people.

I built up a Glock 17 Gen 4 for a forum member last winter and will have to post up some info for that.
At the time the Gen 4 was new and there was not a heck of a lot out there for upgrades so I did some experimenting and managed to put together a nice package for him.

I will see if I can dig up some pics that I took of the build and do some mini reviews on them.

I will also be doing a personal build on a Glock 21 Gen 4 in the not to distant future.

Hey Tim, can you tell me which store you buy your glock parts from?
I just got a glock 17 gen3 and I was wondering what upgrades I should put into it.

I like what James Yeager says about that.
"Wear it out"
That's the best thing you can do for it/you.

I know it's cool to have a custom gun and own a magpul'd 870 just for that... but I don't see the point on a Glock.
Many of the parts people change make the gun less reliable and less usable under stress.

Just my opinion.
Buy what you like, but think about whether it helps what you need it to do, or hinders it.

Mm, true say. Same stuff applies to my other hobbies, only seems logical to follow it here as well. Just replace the stuff that get too worn to operate well.
thanks man, saved me a couple bucks :D
 
My build, too bad I just sold it:

Ordered a few stock parts from Glockparts.com. They sent me a shipment notification within minutes. Just as I was emailing them to add another part to the order. :/

Lots of stuff backordered these days.
 
Glock Beavertail

Grip Force beavertail adapter ...

Glock appears to be releasing a beavertail backstrap in the fall of 2013 for gen4 models .. Grip Force has these kits in play for the first 3 and the 4th generation now ..

Without creating a backlash of how could you do this to the perfect design of a glock .. Etc. ... Has anyone installed one ?

Comments ..
 
Got my stuff from glockparts.com in 16 days. The date stamp confirmed it was shipped the day I called them. They also note on their website if items are backordered . I put in another order, received order confirmation and shipment notification emails within minutes of ordering online.
 
I like the mods on the glocks guy's good job.
Myself I have had a few with mods but never change the springs from glock original parts.
I think moded guns are great for the range or ISPC. But in a bet your life on it slash combat gun bout the only thing I would ever do is a ext mag release of some kind.

Really no impressed with glockstore. Ordered 3 weeks ago. No contact so I emailed a week ago and asked what's up please reply, no reply. Call today items are on back order till March!? Why would you not say at time of purchase??? Why would you not email me!??? Crappy service! I will stick with Brownells in the future.

I too had the same experience. I waited 6 weeks before hearing anything but they debited my credit card right away. I threatened to contact Visa and report a fraudulent transaction. Then, and only then did they ship my item. Still no email though...
 
Seems like the Glock is the 10/22 of the pistol set. Add more junk. I see warped frames in Buck Rogers mode. Gonna get flamed but just my opinion, not everyone is a fan.
