question for the Glock gurus - Answered! thanks CGN

Hi everyone,

I just picked up a used Gen 3 G19 and it came with an after market Grip Force beavertail adapter. I'm not sure if I like the fatter grip or not. Anyway, the used gun did not come with the original trigger housing pin, and the grip force one is too long to use without the adapter, so I have a couple questions.

Do I need that pin at all?

If so, anyone know where I can get one in Canada? It's the only part I would need so I would rather not have to buy some larger kit. I see Midway USA has them for $1.99.

Here's a photo I ripped off the internet so you know which pin I'm talking about:

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks for looking!

Just shorten the pin you have if you're not gonna use the grip. I'll have a look though my extra parts and if I have one I'll send it to you.

Yes you need that pin, it goes through the assembly holding the connector , ejector etch... won't function without it. Just cut or file down the grip force pin.

Thanks!

Like I said before, I still don't know if I like the adapter or not so I would rather not alter the pin if I chose to go back to using it.

Yes you need the pin. You can either shave yours off, or Reliable Gun in Vancouver sells them.

You need the pin as mentioned above. I have a couple of the longer pins that you could make work, I'll send one to you at no charge. PM me your mailing address and I'll send one off.
