Glock 22 in 40 cal.

My guess is that he was probably anticipating recoil and pushing shots to the left. Those factory sights are plastic and most consider them temporary anyway. Playing devils advocate to my own point, I put almost 10k rounds through my first model 17 and it still has the plastics sights in it.

I’m a fan of using the slide stop/catch to release the slide. The Vickers extended stop is a worthwhile upgrade if you go that route.

Thinking the good reason was his shooting style or handicap.

Speaking of which Ken isn’t that what they do when they turn em sideways gansta to shoot?  :tongue:

Those plastic sights don’t last long when racking the slide on your boot heel, etc when practicing one handed reloads....

No doubt. By the time I was doing much of that stuff with personal guns I had switched over to an M&P.

Burris...OK I guess for the money

Not mil grade

Bling crowd stuff

Never saw one downrange

You see Triticon, Red Dot, Eotech on 99% of combat guns when using reflex type sights, at least in my old crowd which was made up of Rangers, SF, Recon, MARSA, Seals, SWC, SOAR, CCT, HRT, ATF and guys like that.

I took that as a lesson. They never argues with my choice for helicopters, I didn't question their choice for guns and gun hardware.

But

I'd ask Bobby directly and get a good answer...

I like irons on a handgun but if I were going the red dot route I’d save a little longer and go with something like this.

If you want an RMR (and I use that term to cover all RDS options) then save up and send the slide off to get milled out for that optic. As previously posted the Trijicon RMR is pretty much the standard, but Leupold Delta point pro is a very valid option. I've seen and used people's pistols that had the Vortex versions of the rmr mounted and it was very usable.

Here's my opinion, stick with the stock plastic sight for a bit and see what you think. If you want to upgrade to an rds on it, then save up for the suppressor height sights, then save up for the optic you want to mount, then finally ship it off to get milled out by a competent operation. Trident Defense in Illinois or Jaegerwerks in Michigan are 2 that come to mind quickly off the top of my head. Sad part is once you get it milled you'll generally need to choose a new color to get the slide cerakoted to a new color or camo pattern if you wish.

Since I didn't attach a link before:

Trident defense has a LEO cut which I pasted below. You have to buy the suppressor sights and RMR separately or through them which kicks the price but but still a good package.

Eh, I've seen bad results with paint on lume, but also seen great results all in the person doing it I suppose. But if it were me I'd just swap the sights and be done with it.

I read the description of the part, so the 20 pounds spring would directly affect the slide making it harder to manipulate getting a lighter spring rate would make it easier, what would the downsides be? Less shock being soaked up from the spring?

Supposed to help with recoil and follow up shots. I never really saw the need to swap out springs for heavier or lighter unless you're a competition shooter try to tweak some time off or firing hundreds (thousands) of rounds on a frequent basis.

Unless you are handloading and loading hot, I would not mess with those

Recoil springs match the recoil based on power of the load.  If you are running hot, you need a heavier spring.

E.g.  On my glock 20 10mm, I have a KKM barrel and run 200gn hornady XTP and generate 1350 FPS. I have a 23lb spring installed and it still slings brass 20 ft.

Too soft a spring for the load you bash up the frame from too much recoil.

If you have a heavy spring and too light a load,it will FTF

Tungsten guide rod is supposed to give you more weight to keep the muzzle down.

Waste of money IMO

Get a Ghost Rocket trigger disconnect, an extended mag release, night sights and then practice, a lot..

Carried the 22 for over 20 years, all I used were night sights (mepro light). 1/2 the price of trijicon. That and a extended slide release.

I own it now, couldn't tell you how many rounds went through it and still do. Always used the release unless doing drills.

Playing with lights on it now (olight), recharge magnetic base USB. Really small for a good light.
