I've had a Glock 30SF in .45 for 6 years or so. The title of this video interested me, so I started watching. I have fairly small hands, and it is difficult wrap my fingers and get a proper grip. 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.

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.

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 steel & design are + though. Keep in mind, any extended or large parts may screw up a carry holster or pop loose in a stress, range shooting.

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.

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. This was on my 23 and I just swapped it out with the release from a different model with a wider frame (I don't recall which one as this was many years ago).

A note about the Magpul Magwell, I have a sample size of 1 so take that for what its worth, it doesnt like my 10-8 magazine base plates. They seat but just barely, I gotta really press that mag in. In their defence, the mag-well is only 'rated' for Glock and Magpul mags, so those 10-8's are outside of 'intended use'. Just a note for anyone who like their aftermarket baseplates and wants a magpul magwell.

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 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....

I took callipers to the barreling every dimension and for goodness sake there was almost no difference. And when I put the Aus barrel in the USA gun it was a tiny bit loose. (I don’t know if this is a common issue and really it didn’t matter but I was screwing around one day trying to put parts from different guns together and I “discovered” this).

All the more reason not to screw with the tolerances of you're perfectly functional and legendarily reliable Glock with cheap, poorly made Lone Wolf products.

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.

@@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. There are better aftermarket options, especially if you don't mind a premium price tag.

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.

It ejected 3 out 5 times for me. In combat, if you drop your Glock, you might be scrambling to find your ammo. I returned mine back to factory. Just a thought. Those Austrians....pretty smart.

I have tried several extended Slide Lock Levers (not Lone Wolf) and highly recommend the Deltac extended slide lock lever, because of the shape (it's angled about 30 degrees). The angle makes it WAY easier to engage. If you remove your slides all the time . . . this little itty bitty part is going to change your life.

@Bownells,INC. It would be nice if you added links to all of these items in your drop menu. After watching video i went to look to see if i could quick link to each and start making purchases. And that was not an option. Too lazy to re watch vid and take notes. So until im motivated to do so i suppose i will write this instead. Thank you for the vid on kool addons.👍👍

I am in full agreement. Super cost effective upgrades. I have done most of them. I like the 5-7.00 grip plug. I feel it is worth the monet. If you were to drop a Glock pistol, the plud may stop the frame from cracking. Thank you- Super video. I am a fan Of Brownells as well.

Sights of your choice is the only upgrade needed, anything else is for people that don’t shoot. Why would you want your magazines to release easier? So when you are in and out of your truck all day the magazine will conveniently be ejected on to the seat? Extended slide lock? So the slide goes forward after the last round is fired? Keep it stock and reliable. Unless it’s just something you show your friends.

The extended slide lock is stock on the G34, G35, G40 and G41 plus several other models that are a bit more niche. Many police departments order their guns with them as well as prisons and security firms. It’s a stock item. If your grip isn’t proper it can cause the slide not to grab, but that’s a training issue, not a gun issue.
@john-paulsilke893
@john-paulsilke893 4 жыл бұрын
As for the extended magazine release, buy a good holster and you mag button should be covered. If you don’t have a good holster any gun can drop magazines from you sitting and getting in and out of a car or truck.

I would not change out anything on a carry/defensive Glock other than the sights. When you start changing springs, connectors, triggers, strikers, etc you run the risk of affecting safety and reliability adversely. About four years ago I was down at Glock having sights put on when a gentleman brought in a lightly used 35Gen4 that he had just purchased from another shooter. The complaint was that "the gun doesn't work". The technician took the gun in back and after an extended period of time brought it back out, along with a plastic bag full of pieces parts. It seems that the first owner of the gun had installed a number of unauthorized and incorrect parts in an attempt to lighten and quicken the trigger pull as well as allow functioning with lighter loads. Not only did this destroy reliability, it also disabled all the safety devices on the gun...
