That barrel has seen some rounds.

I have a G19 of similar vintage that ran competitions and courses for years, along with EDC, probably with a similar round count but gentler life in the holster and less of a diet of fine grit. I am amazed at the lack of parts breakage, the barrel's accuracy has not degraded to the point that I can tell, and the amount of cheese that can build up in the mechanisms (firing pin channel, extractor recesses, etc.) and it simply doesn't care. I even ran it one year of matches, courses, qualifications, and EDC without cleaning the interior (just wipe down exterior, inspect parts, shake sand out) and nothing.

Which brings me to the question of when that SAS guy went into this cave in Afghanistan and ended up having to knife some Tali because his G19 "failed" makes me wonder what actually happened to that pistol - mainly so I can make adjust preventive maintenance on mine.

CD, is there any sort of round interval at which these guns mandatorily come to you for service?  Or is it more of a “when they act funny” sort of thing? If the former, how are round counts being tracked? Thanks again for your contributions to this thread!

Guns are subject to Quarterly/Semi Annual/Annual inspections.  No round count unless cannon tubes.  If guns have any issues they bring them in.

Is there a specific life cycle on a Glock?  As in they get replaced at X years, Y rounds, or similar?

What usually drives replacement of the pistol?

Not that I've seen.  Replacement is the gun is no longer repairable or replaced by another new model.

Dumb question of mine but what holsters are typically ran with the SF glocks. From the photos is seems like quite a few of CD’s holsters, older safariland DO’s and some one off personal purchases. It seems like any safariland ones out there are only the als and dont have hoods either.

I’ve been to a few different Centrifuge classes.  HRVS instructor, RDS instructor, VCQB.  And then their materials creation class. I’ve enjoyed all of them and learned lots of new and good stuff at each class. I didn’t  know Pannone wasn’t a fan.

Mike is a good dude.  Pranka is an egotistical D.  I respect his achievements and skills...but he's as much ego as he is hard skills and that isn't good when it comes to evaluating techniques and gear.  

Either way, I am a VCQB certified instructor.  Its absolutely realistic and valid for people who work around cars in the kinetic/gunfight sense.  The ballistic demo alone is something we should all see to understand how bullets do and don't penetrate vehicles.

I’ve cloned a few rifles but this thread has got me pretty excited to try something new. Never been very versed in handguns but my CCW is a 43x or a 23. It would be cool’s to clone a 19 and carry it now and then.

I’ve tried to pick through this thread the best I can but a have a couple questions.

All 19 gen 4s in use have been US made, correct?

It looks like the RMR is much more widely used than the DPP but looks like a few pics here and there. What sights are typically used in conjunction with the 19 and DPP? Rear sight has to go in front of the DPP?  I can get DPPs pretty affordable through work so kind of leaning towards them. But may go to an RMR.

Any other reference pics of 19s with the DPP?

The DPP one pictured in the above posts with the fde surefire is not a full MK27.... it looks like a custom milled ATEI Deltapoint slide (in at least one photo it looks like an ATOM slide was used).

The MK27s/19s that are optic-ready are regular MOS Glocks.

The JSOC Glock 17s are factory milled for a DPP.

Ah yes, I was so focused on the sight configuration I didn’t even notice the front slide serrations. It seems like from a clone perspective with a 19 you are much better off with an RMR. Not coming up with much reference material for the DPP.

When they use DDPs on the mk27s they generally do not put the require irons on them also. However, I have seen a SEALs MK27 mod 2 with a DPP and Dawson front sight.

Did mod 1s get new barrels/upgraded to Mod 2s? Or are mod 2s strictly Gen 4’s?
Link Posted: 10/4/2024 9:48:57 PM EDT
[Last Edit: pilatuspilot] [#40]
I didn’t know Glock factory threaded barrels were uncommon. I bought a couple each G19, G21, G22, and G23 threaded barrels direct from Glock ten or 15 years back.

Also my SF G22 clone was about the easiest and cheapest clone I’ve ever done. Coincidentally had a nearly identical setup on a gen 3 G35 from when I had time to shoot very uncompetitively. Just swapped the sights and magwell over to an extra G22. I just wish I could get an AAC Evo 40. I had a WTB in the EE for years but no bites. I guess this thread is the reason. In the mean time my Omega 45k does just fine.


ETA: I bought a Gen 5 G19 a few weeks back that came with a Gen 19 factory threaded barrel (metric like god intended European pistols to be.) I need to compare the markings to my older Gen 3 OEM metric barrels when I get up to my camp in a couple weeks. It’s is one of the B&T custom cut guns with an Acro on top.

The Mod 1s are Gen 3 19 MOSs that were made in Austria and command a premium when they show up on the civilian market. These are most commonly used by USASOC. The Mod 2s are Gen 4 19 MOSs and are made in the USA. These are found with both threaded and regular barrels and are commonly seen with MARSOS, NSW and AFSCOC. The type of barrel does not affect the designation.

Ok great. Makes sense. I was thinking it may be like the sopmod program where upgrade/blocks progressed a platform. Thanks for helping out with the stupid questions.

When it comes to cloning, what keeps a guy from buying a gen 3 and having someone mill for the RMR?

At the risk of thread drifting or whatever is it a matter that no one will? Seems like any reputable shop could. I’ve only ever had slides cut specifically for Trijicon and Aimpoint but I would consider MOS cuts on a couple of my older guns so that I could use FCD plates to mount future Trijicon and Aimpoints.

No they aren’t, they have an mos “footprint” but it does not match a factory mos since they move the rear sight to the front of the optic

@pilatuspilot it’s not possible to clone a gen 3 mos because the rear sight dovetail on the mos models is further back.  If you found someone willing to weld the dovetail, and recut it then you could have jagwerks or whoever clone the mos cut

Responded while you were responding. I get it now. For my purposes the clones are cool but not my goal. Doing MOS cuts on some of my non-mos guns would be nice even if not correct in the scope of this thread.

I’ll still hunt for factory Gen 4 and Gen 3 MOS 19.
