I know it tends to be a love/hate affair with these pistols. Here's my Gen 4. Prolly went a lil silly with it, but honestly the stiple and leaving the finger grooves, has done wonders for the grip angle.

Anybody else made a few upgrades? If so, would love to see them.

Gen 3 G34 competition gun. Apex drop in trigger, stippled and undercut frame, Dawson Precision sights and magwell, also run their +5 mag extensions. I polished the barrel, controls, and magwell to almost mirror finish.

Did this one awhile back but have since sold it. G35.

This is my Carry Optics gun for USPSA. Trigger job, super custom grip tape, and will be adding a tungsten guide rod and weight in the heel soon. Shoots good too.

I don't run and gun with mine, so they are pretty tame in comparison to those above. Each has been modified with a Glock extended slide release and "-" trigger connector, plus polishing of the trigger bar, connector and FP safety plunger. They all have tritium sights as well.

Each of these .22 conversions has a dedicated frame with the above mods, and fiber optic front sights.

Janie, who did your stippling and does that magwell make it hard to conceal?

I run the magpul flush magwell on my carry gun which is a G19 as well.

Janie, I can’t stand a Glock because of their grip angle and blockiness, but your stippling looks badass.

The easiest way to help a Glock grip angle is to get a Walther. Well, anything else really.

Did StippGrips do the stippling work on your glock Janie?

The grip angle argument is the most chickenshit argument ever stated, from both sides.

It does not take that much to roll your wrists down a touch after drawing your pistol.

Grip angle doesn’t help recoil control one bit.


There. I said it. Now both the Glock fanboys and 1911 diehards will crucify me.

So the way a gun fits my hand isn’t important? My natural point of aim holding a Sig is true, holding a Glock and I’m way off. I think both are excellent weapons, I just prefer the way a Sig fits my hands.

Practice. 15 minutes of dry fire will get anybody “naturally” having the sights appear on target, with whatever gun is in question.

No sir it was Alegiant Rifleworks. Been very pleased with their work. Kyle no issues carrying concealed with the magwell. I use a Bladetech IWB/appendix. Jason, Wade thank you fellas. Wade your welcome to borrow this. We might make a Glock believer out of you yet! giggle

It takes lots of training to develop muscle memory to do it without fail.

The angle isn't there solely for recoil, but to control the flyweight frame while that big hunk of metal up top runs back and forth. That makes them great for carrying without cleaning; which is where a Glock excels.

I think it's funny there's a contest between Glock and 1911 when both are, uh, classics.
