Any advice on simple G19 additions?
I'd like to un-fuck the trigger and get some better-than-stock sights.
Maybe even a light if I can find the funds later on.
trijicon sights
metal rod+new recoil spring
Nyet, trigger is fine
In the mean time I'll post my lazy attempts at photography.
>>29483892
Trijicon was my first thought, so I'll look around at prices.
I've seen someone take out the rear sight, is the front just as easy?
Also, why a new spring?
>>29483871
3.5 pound trigger is the biggest one you should get. Followed by night sights.
steel sights, take your pick of night sights or whatever floats your boat.
don't bother with dicking with the trigger, only fucking slack jawed faggots do this because they suck
>>29483936
i believe it's a 3/16" nut, you will probably have to get a driver that will fit within the slide since there is not a lot of space in there.
>>29483936
spring changes the recoil to snappier or longer depending one which one you get/prefer
>>29483871
Custom backplate
Get an extended mag release and slide stop from vickers. You wont regret it. By far the best upgrades I have done to my 19. Also never get a three dot sight system with all the same color dots. Front sight should contrast.
>>29483957
3.5 is what I'm hearing the most, I'll go with that. Any recommendations on where to shop?
Also is that your Glock? I like those sights.
>>29483973
I'm a damn good shot with the trigger as it is but I really don't like it, I really want to change it.
>>29484000
Ah, I see it now. Danke.
>>29484006
I figured. I'll dick around with that in time, thank you.
>>29484032
;^]
>>29484034
Cheaper than I thought they'd be, I'll keep them in mind thanks!
>>29484093
yes the glock is mine

Since you got the Gen 4 there isn't that much I think should be changed other than the sights.
If the trigger bothers you that much then get the 3.5 disconnect but leave the springs themselves alone.
Get night sights of your choice. Trijicon, Meprolights, Ameriglo, Truglo, and Heinie are all good choices. I'm not a fan of XS Big Dots but you might like them.
Brownells is having a sale on Glock magazines right now. Idk how much of a deal they are compared to other stores but I still went ahead and picked some up.
Also the Gen 4s come with the Glock factory extended magazine release. I don't see the extended slide release being a critical upgrade. For one handed operation your sights should work just fine to work the slide off your belt, boot heel, table, etc.
I prefer to work the slide when reloading though.
>>29484113
I like it a little too much.
What's the light? Googling x01 isn't getting me anywhere.
>>29483871
>I'd like to un-fuck the trigger and get some better-than-stock sights
>>29484227
Oh golly thanks
It's a surefire Xc1.. Pricy but it's a lifetime (hopefully) investment.
>>29484240
Any other brand gun owner
> help why is my gun malfunctioning? It has a nice trigger and sights from the factory. I dont get it.
>>29484199
They do not come stock with the extended. My reload time was cut in half with the mods.
>>29484240
>I have no aftermarket to upgrade my trigger or sights outside of custom work, golly I made the right choice
>>29484280
>>29484318
>Completely missing the point
>>29483871
>Any advice on simple G19 additions?
dont buy Gen4 trash.
Now that you got your pre2010 Gen3 G19, go get:
>G17 smooth trigger
>Blue firing pin spring
>Maritime cups
>(-) connector bar
>NY1 Olive spring
>Extended slide release
>Extended mag release
>Grip plug
>Glock brand Trijicon Tall supressor sights, even if you dont have a threaded barrel. neon yellow up front, black on the back. Green/yellow for tritium color.
>Old non-LCI extractor along with the non-LCI spring bearing
>New 30724 ejector, ONLY if you get BTF more than once every 100 rds, not including bounceback off range plywood dividers.
>Glock GTL or light of your choice.
Glock brand Glock stuff only, except grip plug and tac-light.
>>29483957
>those gimmicky-ass sights
why didnt you just get some XS bigdots to show how much a fgt you are?
>>29484338
>stop liking what I don't like
you
>>29484199
>Also the Gen 4s come with the Glock factory extended magazine release.
its not an extended, its the "wide" LEO-only mag release. There was a reason it was LEO only before, and thats because its a piece of shit for anyone with normal sized hands. You will have your mag drop out on you at least once just from grabbing it as fast as you can, and its more than likely gonna happen under stress.
The Gen4 was literally made for women, lefty's and babby handed 'men' who limpwrist.
>>29484295
I could've sworn that I read somewhere that they came with the extended on the Gen 4s. My G19 is a Gen 3 so I don't have personal experience with the Gen 4s.
>>29484262
What kind of holster do you use with the light?
>>29484262
>$299.99
>sweatingglockface.jpg
>>29484199
I'll look up those names tonight, thanks!
Also good catch on the sale, I can't grab any right now though.
>>29484338
>grip plug
Any real benefit to these?
>>29484363
Well that makes me feel better for picking up a Gen 3. It's all the shop I went to had and no one else in town had any G19s period.
>>29484363
jesus christ you are jaded.
>>29484389
>Any real benefit to these?
some used to be made where they were like a ramp, so it helped with reloading. Nowdays, its just a plug. It keeps shit like lint and dead skin from getting inside the trigger sear pack. It also prevents water from draining somewhat, but really who gives a shit if you go underwater and still have some water in your trigger sear pack, itll work just fine.
Vickers makes one that has a built in push punch for disassembly, but its overpriced for what it is.
>>29483871
There are sight manufactures that use Trijicon tritium inserts. Instead of getting the Trijicon HDs, You can save around $30 and get something just as good
>>29484362
Quit trying to ruin OPs life. OP a gen4 19 is the best decision you can make with your life.
>>29484400
Shoulda got a G19 Threaded Bore model for ~$50 more. gives you the same velocity as a full size G17 barrel in a G19 size.
>heheh just had to shit on your parade.
>>29484406
I didnt know speaking from experience around these parts automatically made me 'jaded'
>>29484440
you obviously don't own one how much experience on the gen 4 could you possibly have? I have literally never ever ever accidentally dropped a mag.
Honestly I think you might be some sort of retarded if that is an actual concern for you
>>29483936
>>29484000
Why not get it done professionally? Mine was $10, took a few minutes and I wasnt worried about it breaking.
>>29484493
Because it is literally the simplest procedure you can do.
>>29484414
Alright I'll add that to the list, thank you.
>>29484440
I kinda wish I got the threaded bore now...
>>29484493
From the prices I've seen from smiths in my area I'd rather do it myself.
>>29484475
what size gloves do you wear? in "Mens" size....
also, go look up Glock rusting. Gen4 has had more improperly heattreated spings than all the other guns combined. Slides fall off by themselves, BTF galore, mags drop out accidentally if you dont grip the gun perfectly, and a lot of proprietary parts. ALL just so you can get "adjustable backstraps and reversible mag release": marketed for women, babby handed men, lefty's, and limpwristing weaklings. Gen 2 was literal perfection. Tool steel parts, real fuckin tennifer, noMIM shit. All they had to do was add a fuckin light rail to it....
>>29484530
Grass is always greener on the other side. They still have a few G17 threaded out there online, I think the G19's have all but dried up.
>>29484534
Forgot to add with the RTF2 limited edition texture on the Gen 2 with light rail.
>>29483871
anyone know what knife that is?
>>29484199
>I'm not a fan of XS Big Dots
Thats why the regular XS sights exist. Big dots are for 90yr old mole men
>>29484572
Spartan Blade's Phrike. I took the pics.
It's a damn neat knife and I'm pretty glad I got it.
>>29484534
Large usually and XL for Oakley Gloves.. Im 6' 1''
The fact that you think the mag ever drops out accidentally makes every other one of the points you are trying to make invalid.
Again... You don't own one. How the fuck would you know? "I read someone"
k
>>29484613
go grab your gun regular, but imagine you didnt grip it allll the way up with your web inside the beaver tail. Your thumb knuckle will hit the mag release. One handed, that is, not your stupid Thumbs up tacticool grip.
>>29484657
I want to get one just to bug people, but I can't because it's not an AMT.
>>29484644
you literally have to push it all the way down to get the mag to release. You are the only person I have EVER EVER EVER heard complain about this.
honestly, just try to not suck and you'd be surprised what you could accomplish man.
>>29484657
These are so incredibly cringe worthy it truly isn't funny.
>>29483871
What knife is that OP?
>>29484563
>RTF2 limited edition texture on the Gen 2 with light rail
Stop making me sad. The last time I saw one in person I was in a pawn shop,and I wasn't there to buy
>>29484644
Do you have cerebral palsy or just severe autism? Who the fuck grips a gun like that? You shouldnt even own a gun if you grip one like you described.
>>29484832
If you saw a Gen 2 with light rail and RTF2 texture, that was prolly the only one they ever made, and by accident. RTF2 is the tits thought. It is really the best "Gen 3" they made.
>>29484852
>you shouldnt own a gun unless you hold it with two hands always.
Sounds like what your mother told you about dinner plates is still embedded in your mind, eh? Im sure you walk with knives pinched between two fingers and not in a fist too, dont ya? get over it fagget:
>Gen4 ashit.
but what am I wasting my breath for? youre the shithead that buys a fixed blade knife for looking sleek and pretty over its functionality. Go try to poke something hard with those thin ass G10 scale grips. Your hand is gonna keep moving and slice your fingers right off.
best part is you didnt use the paracord hole to make a pommel, instead you braided it like you did your little sisters hair, lol.....
>babbyback bitch status: Confirmed
oh, and if you wear XL gloves, I wanna see a pic of you holding that gun in your regular grip.
you already showed us your effeminate lotioned hands >>29484262
>>29484434
It's called a warranty. Why would you not get trijicons?
G19 with suppressor height trijicons. Glock Kraft trigger is in the mail.
>>29484962
You do understand that I never once said a damn thing about two hands.
> autism confirmed
When I do my one handed shooting I dont have a fag boy low grip that somehow magically brushes the mag release. Are you jerking your gun off or shooting autism boy?
>>29483871
There's this really cheap way of unfucking the trigger, it's called practice.
>>29484338
>all this shit you don't need
woah nigga
put sights on it and call it good
>>29483871
Glock brand Glock night sights are cheap and work. Unfucked my trigger with a "-" disconnector and adding the competition trigger spring or whatever they call it. Trigger isnt great but fuck-leagues better than what it was factory
>>29484962
You're responding to the wrong person as>>29484704 is me.
Anyway, as requested. Pretty normal fuckin hand
Maybe I'm just odd but I don't see the problem people have with a stock Glock trigger. I think it functions fine for a combat sidearm. Then again I think stock AR triggers are perfectly acceptable for a self defense carbine that you're not doing precision work at long range with.
>>29485130
I agree. You can shoot slightly faster with the lighter trigger though. Something to keep in mind.
>>29485025
>my grip is in the exact same spot no matta what, my hands never faulter when drawing from a holster while moving
sure thing buddy. Why dont you go be delusional with your friends over at >>>/r9k/ ?
>>29485162
STOP TALKING ABOUT SOMETHING YOU DON'T OWN.
Seriously! What the fuck is wrong with your mind??
>>29485108
>Stubby fingers
>posting from a dorm room
you wear a medium, tops.
>>29485130
There is nothing wrong with stock triggers, anyone who complains about them is literally looking for something to blame for their shitty shooting.
>>29483871
what knife is that?
>>29485173
I dont need to validate myself online with pics to unknown faggets living in a campus "gun-free" dorm.
>>29485186
I'm in a library..

>>29484755
I completely fucking agree. Reminds me of stickers that mexicans put on their civics. It's completely trashy.
