Quick Tip: Top 12 DIY Upgrades for Your Glock® Under $30

When the Glock® first appeared in the 1980s, it transformed pistol design forever. But it had one flaw: there was nothing you could do to customize it - no aftermarket parts or accessories. Things are MUCH different now, as Brownells Gun Tech Steve Ostrem explains. Aside from five generations of improvements made by the factory, there are now tons of aftermarket components to help you tweak your Glock® so it's perfect for you. Steve tells us about 12 add-ons, upgrades, and accessories that'll make your Glock® easier to adjust, work on, operate, and… just plain more enjoyable to shoot. You can install/use ALL of them yourself, and each costs LESS than $30!

Thus, it is, or rather was, difficult to operate the mag release button and the slide release button. Those two extended releases were totally easy to install and hugely worth the minimal cost.

I don't believe it for a few reasons. First you'd need to replace springs. The 10k could easily mean 20k+ cycles especially if you account for the amount of dry fires, function checks, and just general need for cycling the slide like disassembly. So it is impossible to fire that many rounds and not having to replace the springs.

[@BigAlWillis]

@Jaime Garcia just easier to breakdown the gun

[@eatingelizabethsfrizbee]

Until it hangs up on your clothing. I've owned Glocks since 1992 and it's only happened a few times but it was during a quick draw and engage drill. We were taught that when reloading from a locked slide(which is a bad)position to grab the slide and rack, point being it's the largest object to get you loaded and back in the fight. All these addons are completely unnecessary.

[@eatingelizabethsfrizbee]

@Jaime Garcia I agree. I like a G22 w/night sights, I'll polish the engagement surfaces to smooth up the trigger but that all.

[@eatingelizabethsfrizbee]

@Jaime Garcia that's what I started with a early Gen2 G17 right at the time you might get some non lined mags, I actually won Gen2 G23 at the Gateway Gun club Jacksonville Florida in 1998 and before you think I am bragging I got 1st in C class which is how GSSF scored so I could've been 73 or so I didn't win it because I was the best shot I'll put it that way.

Not exactly. I think Glock is sort of catching on that the aftermarket stuff is where they can make a lot of money. I also notice they recently released a trigger in the last few years. I think the thing Glock is realizing is that people want small micro changes to their glock but some people don't mind the stock glock.

The slightly longer mag release made a world of difference when I was putting in a lot of hours at an outdoor training facility during the winter months where my fingers would turn to mush, especially on rainy or snow days.

Don't buy into extended magazine releases though. You should have to turn the gun in your hand to release the magazine. I've seen people with those gimmicks lose their magazine while shooting. Also lose their magazine when their carrying inside the waist band because their fat pushes on it. So buy at your own risk. Glock spent millions of dollars designing their pistol. People think 30 bucks is holding Glock back from improving their pistols. I recommend getting some good sights that don't push out 😂 and a good holster. Those are my two upgrade suggestions for Glock.

No add ons to help with the ability to rack the slide? As people get older and get arthritis their ability to hold the slide and pull back becomes harder. That doesn't even include people who through injury have become handicapped and as result may have lost the ability to hold the pistol and operate the slide due to nerve, tendons, ligaments, and/or muscle loss requiring a back plate that knob or extra wing tabs to increase the area and have the pull against the second surfaces, instead of just the pinch strength. Many firearms are usable but the tension /resistance of charging the weapon can require more strength. Once chambered they are able to fire the pistol without issue and "Last Round Hold Open" Slide release allows switching mags and then hitting the slide release brings them back withy enough ammo. It is those little addons that can make or break the option of using a 9mm verse having to depended on .22 cal handgun which is smaller, possibly not able to even be gripped for arthritis limiting how far a person can close than hands. This is literally the quote about "god created man but Sam Colt made them equals.

[@RenoMay]

Able Magawitch like this? amzn.to/2YRLzjW

[@ablemagawitch]

@@RenoMay My comment was pointing out Brownells didn't list any of these type of devices as accessories and/or upgrades. The one you showed(linked) runs into a problem with the use of fingers for arthritis hands, if they can't grip the slide enough, reducing to a finger inside of a loop will be harder. That part also has slick curving sides which sadly reduces the usefulness, but for some it will be the right fit for their limitations. The Rear Back Plates that have the ""ears"" that stick out or small handle that you can insert to ether side(no not the giggle switch sadly...) which allows for them to squeeze the slide as much as they can, then have the rear piece catch on the side(s) of the hand(or able to hook on to many surfaces to do a push the gun forward to chamber the gun, instead of pulling the slide rearward) giving more contact area. Which allows the pulling with the side of the hand in addition the squeezing of the hand, which adds an addition point of contact to divide the force out to multiple points, which will hopefully overcome any limitations that they may have from age and arthritis. Let alone hand injury from damage or nerve damage, back issues that effect the nerves in the hands. There are so many ways to loose the ability to chamber a Glock style pistols it is scary. Hopefully most people will never experience them, of have to see someone the care about deal with it. That falls in with the AR-15 Pistol braces, they actually really do work to help people, despite everyone thinking they're just a way to get around the SBR stupidity and hassles....

[@ablemagawitch]

@Kurt Miller Exactly , sadly these items weren't on the list. Which eventually we will hopefully live long enough that the age and body breaking down becomes a problem. Not that it is good thing, and hopefully better treatments and cures will be forth coming, but for now it is a reality many have to live with.....

[@Dan-di9jd]

I think if you had to just get one item, I would definitely think a spare magazine would be the most ideal. In all my years of owning one, I think the extended slide release is the second best item you can buy especially for the Gen 5 one. Makes it so much easier to use and on top of that you can use your right index finger to release the slide (or vice versa if you're opposite hand). It makes everything work way more smoothly.

[@ALovelyBunchOfDragonballz]

For a Glock 42/43 I recommend the Vickers +2 extension and a Ghost Extended Slide release. That's all ive done, plus 1000 rounds to smooth the trigger out. I'm debating an Apex Flat Faced trigger for that 43, ive got one in my G17 and P320, its now drop safe :P , and like it but the current trigger feels fine. We'll see I guess.

@@john-paulsilke893 Every individual gun has it's own individual tolerances... That's not just Glock, or because of the country of origin specifically...

I did notice a small rust colored burn mark on the barrel but I think that's Glock's stupid new "copper" colored factory protective coating.

[@TheJoker-xw8zg]

@@DavidLLambertmobile I've seen that same copper grease on Gen 1's and 2's. It's just their standard grease to make sure the gun doesn't rust before they ship it to a gun dealer and you buy it off said gun dealers shelf. It's not meant to be the best, it's just meant to preserve their gun untill they sell it. That being said, not sure your point about the copper grease, other than you talked to some "exec's" about it. The Alpha barrels seems like their top of the line barrels, but I'd still never buy one.
