My first glock is on order, a NIB gen 3 G19.
Picking up a weapon light tomorrow, Bravo concealment holster will be ordered next week.

I'd like to have a spare recoil spring on hand. Where should I buy from? Can a dual spring from Gen4s fit/work?

Who's got a link to the orange base plates for IDing range mags?

Will ATEi supply the suppressor height AmeriGlo night sights or do I need to source those if they're doing the install? Speaking of ATEi, thoughts on getting front serrations or their fancy top 'wave' serrations?

Aftermarket triggers ???

what about a speedloader?

For spare parts you can go to glockmeister.com
Not sure about sights. Other than that just buy a lot of ammo and shoot the piss out of it. Then buy more ammo.

Gen 4 recoil rods will not fit a Gen 3.

As for sights, I use the Glock factory night sights. You can order them straight from Glock or you can send them your slide for an inexpensive install. Also the Glock night sights have a tenifer coating making them very rust resistant.

In addition to Glockmeister, Brownells has a lot of Glock parts in stock too.

I'd like to have a spare recoil spring on hand. Where should I buy from? brownells, midwayusa, amazon (yes, I said Amazon), glock mesiter, glock parts are all good

Can a dual spring from Gen4s fit/work? Absolutely not, and don't try it

Speaking of ATEi, thoughts on getting front serrations or their fancy top 'wave' serrations?   You are buying a Glock, not and STI race gun....so I would say they are unnecessary IMHO

Aftermarket triggers ???  See above post.  Before you drop more on your gun that you paid....please just shoot it some first.  Get to know it, and see what you feel like you NEED to change after that.  You will save some money and possibly some unnecessary upgrades that way

what about a speedloader?Speed-loader?  Like for a revolver?  Or do you mean the magazine loader that Glock includes with the pistol in the case.

Awesome, thanks

ATEi advertises their serations for one handed manipulation - bullshit marketing?

I have Defoor sights on my Glock and use my holster or belt for one hand manipulations. It works just fine that way.

I just bought an UpLula for 9mm-.45 mags and it works like a charm. Not really faster, but your fingers don'thurt a damn bit!






I'd recommend one because you can use them on about any centerfire mag. I loaded my 1911 mags and then my G17 mags back to back.

I forgot it once .... decided I really didn't need to shoot my pistols that day anyway.

I don't bother with any different sights for using with a suppressor...  learn to shoot with both eyes open.

I get small parts from an ebay store called ecop.

Very good prices, the shipping is the main reason.

But yeah, shoot it before thinking about changing the trigger. You can swap the trigger spring and/or connector out extremely easily if you want to go that route in the future.

I got Ameriglow night suppressor height sights from opticsplanet for 88 bucks and they are really nice. Also, check out DP Custom Works he does great work and is a great guy to deal with.

Not my pic but this is them. They have a flat front face for one handed manipulations.


ETA: They are plain black which is my preference. Before it is asked, yes I've done night fire before. With a light I find night sights don't help ME much if at all.
