I’m impressed. 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. |

As in they get replaced at X years, Y rounds, or similar? What usually drives replacement of the pistol? |

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 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? |

Not coming up with much reference material for the DPP. |

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.
