I’m a Glock guy myself, but I brought a H&K VP9 SK and I’m trying to get comfortable with shooting it because it’s just a totally different feel when it comes to the recoil for me.

Right, which is why I don't like videos that claim one gun shoots better than the other as soon as you pick it up. There's a learning curve to them all.

The baseplate is probably not locking in place like it used to do to constantly dropping the mag...same thing happened to me! Once the tabs wear down the baseplate won't hold correctly! After ruining two good mags and baseplates I've learned to stop being so ruff on my mags 🤣!

FWIW, It looks like the baseplate had excess spring pressure. There seems to be a fit issue with that particular mag body and mag base. ( Actually measuring the mag base with other mag bases and mag bodies. The mag base might have stretched out to the point where it blew off the bag body. )

I had this happen to a magazine while on duty, out in the street, but it was completely the stock magazine that failed. The basepad just gave out when it got bumped getting in the van. I never thought about changing a magazine release spring, didn't even know they sell it

Crazy thing is that when it happen it was in my head til this morning. I couldn't help thinking about what if it happen when I needed it. Moral of the story is that we shouldn't overlook making sure mags a seated and baseplates are snapped in completely before duty or leaving the house. Thanks for sharing...

You probably already know this, but just in case... The Glock factory +2 floor plate comes in two separate pieces, the base plate and an insert - part numbers #2193 and #2194. You should also replace the 10 coil Glock 17 spring with the 11 coil one which is the same one as in the +2 extended 19X magazine. I've done this to several of my Glock magazines including the G26 which just needs the two parts (#2193 and #2194) and the Glock 19 +2 which should also include changing out the 9 coil spring to the 10 coil spring (standard G17 magazine spring) Please disreguard the above if you already knew this. Regardless though, the fault still is almost certainly associated within the +2 extended floor plate itself. Maybe you never got it to fully click into place upon original modification install?

@Gypsyman4014 күн бұрын
@dylanholbrook6239 correct... It really comes down to a gun being modified to fire easier and if you want that in a self defense scenerio. The oem trigger is much more forgiving than the first Gen GPT. The new GPT's have a heavier pull weight as well as a more defined wall. The Glock safeties are battle tested and effective. The only safety that now comes into question is ones trigger finger safety (meaning you).

I’m a self admitted over luber. Not everywhere, pretty much the same places you do. I’ve had people tell me the lube will attract fouling and that’s probably true. I overcome that by cleaning lot. I clean my self defense guns every time I shoot them. My range guns may go about 500 or so rounds. I keep two identical guns. Same trigger on both. For instance, one G17 for the range and one for self defense. That way the round count and fouling stay low on the defense gun. I’m with you, any metal on metal will always work better with lube. Thanks for the video sir, I always enjoy them.

@Padre_KalibreАй бұрын
Just bought two of these today and installed it on my Glock 45 and 26. It's the very first time I've ever installed a different trigger than a standard OEM on a handgun. When I racked the slide on the 26 and pulled the trigger, I couldn't describe the feeling. It was a night and day difference. Same with the Glock 45. I just got the 45 last week and the standard trigger it came with was very shitty and worse than any of my other Glocks. But this fixes it. Can't wait for the next time I hit the range. I got a feeling my groupings are gonna be way tighter. And if what you say is true, no worries because I carry a revolver anyways. I wish they would've made it for the 40 and 10mm too.

I gotta disagree with point shooting out to that distance. I don’t believe in point shooting almost at all anyways, but especially out past 3 yards or so. I think it’s an excuse to not train at real speed. You can’t rely on point shooting to not accidentally go beyond your target and hit an innocent person or just miss completely. 3 yards or in, yes you are close enough to maybe point shoot but you can still train to be fast enough to see your sights even at maximum speed. I’ve done the Modern Samurai 3x2 drill in 1.36 seconds and seen my dot for all 5 shots to account for all of my shots (it’s documented on my channel * self defense drills video*). Not hating just have to disagree with the point shoot out to certain distances and encourage faster real world training
@Gypsyman40Ай бұрын
Before I answer this I want to thank you for engaging. I'm not aware of your background and real life experience so please excuse any assumptions if any that I make. The variable that is missing from your training is a real life treat trying to harm you. One can be the best shooter in the world but in a real life situation your skill level will surely diminish greatly. Some say it will diminish to your level of training and I've read great quotes that support this notion. Your motor skill will diminish and you vision will tunnel with that adrenalin dump. I see alot of great shooters online training others to be more proficient, but most don't talk about what happens when shyt really hits the fan. So you shoot quickly under the buzzer and I'm sure that make you look and feel like a well prepared self defending shooter. What if you did that same training with someone trying to shoot you? I would argue that you won't have time to set yourself up to shoot 1.3 odd seconds using the sights. I use this example to demonstrate that it BS respectfully to think that you will pull this off under real circumstances. Additionally, if you and I where shooting on the move shooting at a 3-7 yard target I'll bet your shooting with you dot/sights will not beat my sight/predictive shooting. Times would definitely increase and accuracy will suffer, but this would be a more realistic approach for this exercise. And keep in mind I'm aware that you are a talented shooter in comparison to most. Yes, we must be accountable for every round but I believe this is why you must decide if using your gun in a crowded area would be your best option. Sometimes it's best to retreat when all possible to cover or away from the situation. Especially if you know your not that good and a director doesn't say cut after you pull that trigger.
