General Discussion / Re: New Glock 19X Jan 22nd
January 13 2018 06:38:47 PM MST
I once did something similar, I put a Colt Commander slide on a Colt Officer's Model frame, and then sold the remaining short officer's slide with the full length Commander frame to a friend that wanted that combination for some reason.

The genius carried it in a horizontal shoulder holster tucked under his arm!

Had the Milt Sparks Summer Special for a Colt Govt. Model and it is a very nice holster with a metal band reinforcement to hold the holster mouth open.

However, at one time I cocked and locked the pistol on an empty chamber and took it  quad ridding with me into the woods, and at the end of the day the safety had somehow worked itself off! :o

The Kramer has had no such problem even after years of rough trail use.

Probably because the Glock doesn't have thumb safety to begin with.  :))

Just didn't like that hesitation when inserting the Glock into the IWB Kramer.

May not even had been the holster's fault because of course it was originally not made for the G20, but now it does work well with the rounded front trigger guard.

However, the difference in concealability is huge. I always carry in an IWB, and this hides about as easily as a G26.

I also carry in an IWB holster.

This Kramer horsehide holster was designed to carry my G33, but after I sold that handgun, I wasn't about to pay another $100 or so for a new G20 one.

Excellent holster quality BTW.

It covers the trigger like it's supposed to and holds the G20 very well, but there was a slight hesitation when inserting my Glock that gave me the impression of something pressing against the trigger, even though there wasn't anything doing so. :o

That is why I rounded the front of the trigger guard, and now it slides in a lot smoother without that scary (am I about to get Glock leg) pause it once had.  :D

The grip reduction works perfect with no problems encountered ever, and of course you can still use the original 15 round magazines without problems if desired.

Best of both worlds IMO.  8)

We think alike!  ;D

Had the G29 and liked its concealability but thought the recoil was snappy.

Got this G20 new in Nov. of 2002, fired a box of 50 rounds out of it and broke out the hacksaw.

Been GREAT ever since!  8)

Gunsmithing / Re: G20 Titanium Guide Rod?

I believe you're right, I thought I saw them listed a long time ago.

Sad part is that I couldn't remember their name and they are located fairly close to me.

Maybe I'll call them and inquire as to why they didn't set one aside for me.  >:(

Thanks for the reply sqlbullet.

Gunsmithing / G20 Titanium Guide Rod?
October 27 2014 02:49:49 PM MDT
Been searching for one of those for a while and haven't had any luck so far.

Are they even being made?

Have a tungsten steel guide rod now, but would prefer something lighter and (in my mind) stronger than the original stock polymer rod.

..oh yea, my grip reduction Gen3 G20 compared to friends Gen2 G21...(yes he could probably use a titanium front sight post)  :))

Hey new posts should have a picture of some kind ya know.  :D

Yep, and of course we halted all Chinese importation of AK-47's and all the ammo as well.

We'll show 'em!

How much money is in your wallet?

Welcome to the Forum Henri311!  :D

I also have a gen3 G20 and would really like to add a 6" barrel sometime down the road.

Enjoy yourself here, lots of good folks!  8)

I'm beginning to get the impression that gun bans really do not work.

Who'd have guessed?  ::)

Good suggestion.

My friend's Windham Weaponry has been very reliable, so have my other friends Olympic Arms and DPMS rifles.

Seems that for under a grand you can pick quite a few good factory AR's these days.  :D

Now if .223/5.56 ammo availability would just get back to normal... :'(

An AR-15, properly assembled with quality parts, is an extremely reliable and accurate rifle.

Heck it's based on the M-16 after all.

Oh it's not feeding right?

My investigation would begin with the magazine.

Been trying to locate posts on other AR-15 forums from people asking the same question and I can't seem to find them now but I do remember a lot of replies pointing to the Spikes and PSA offerings as being of good quality for the money.

Oh and my Sig Sauer M-400 Enhanced was under your price when I purchased it new and has been a great rifle...but of course I couldn't leave well enough alone...  ::)

I just finished watching both and I will say that even though I've read about that incident in books and magazines , the visual impact of actually watching a re-enactment put it in a much greater perspective for me.

Thank you for posting.

Those two were the definition of evil.
