Bought my first handgun a few days ago.... a Glock 19 after waiting about 9 months to get my license (Dont ask... Long Island NY).

Went to the range today and really happy with the Glock.  I guess I drank the kool aid!
Heres the obligatory picture.

Very nice.  I also have a gen4.  Look at the base of your recoil spring and tell us what the number is.  If it says 03, Glock has a new spring labeled 04 that you can get for free.  It's a little lighter and may work better will target rounds if you get poor ejection/cycling.

Says 03... I shot off 250 rds today w/out a hitch.  How do I get the 04 anyway?

I got mine on Monday.  I have the 03 spring also, and I ordered the 04, "just in case".

My local gun shop had the 04 spring.  The owner emailed me to tell me to come pick one up (ADCO, yo).  Or as stated, call Glock.

Congrats on a great gun.  You can buy preban 15 round mags on gunbroker.  Though you will pay a premium for them.

Is it just the pic or is the slide gray?

I just received my Gen 4 Glock 19 two days ago.  Yesterday I went and put 50 rounds through it and loved every shot.

I have the 03 spring and had no issues shooting 115 grain Blazer ammo through it.  I think I will be calling for the 04 spring just in case though.  I do not like the idea of FTE's at all!

I am probably not going to be getting my 26 out of the safe much anymore since I think the 19 will be my new EDC once I get a holster for it.

The Gen4 slide is gray.

AIM had non-drop free G19 mags listed for $14.95. I "think" all non-drop frees are preban no?
