Though I would love my G26 to be this one
I’ve played with a couple….honestly, they’re not my bag. They’re really expensive for primarily aesthetic upgrades.Glocks need real sights and a trigger job (just polish, no parts necessary). That’s about it….maybe undercut the trigger guard. IMHO, and intended to be taken with a grain of salt, since I don’t really like glocks that much to begin with.

Very true. But still looks cool. I would not drop that kinda cash on a Glock. There is a thread on one of my local shooting forums talking about the Sailent Glocks, it’s not going well lolDecember 15, 2025 at 11:53 am #132997admin
KeymasterChris_1001, if an engraved, ivory-handled, custom 1911 is like gilding a Lilly, then zev and salient seem a lot like gilding a dandelion.
Nothing against glocks (or dandelions for that matter), but I really don’t get the point.
The triggers are pretty good, and being able to put a dot sight on something smaller than a 34 is pretty cool. But it doesn’t cost nearly that much to accomplish those 2 features.

KeymasterCleaned my Hk45c… Not sure if that counts though :-/

KeymasterSo I have not yet checked out the plunger, nor cleaned the gun (still in my range bag). I have another IDPA tomorrow, so I’ll be adding another 100+ rounds to the count then clean it and file a report here.
I would say I added a front night sight to my G19, but I lost the :censored: thing in the house (and its still in the package).

KeymasterFancy grips – to make it more accurate…

KeymasterOK, Checked out the plunger. I finally did a quick wipe down of my G17. Plunger looks fine, no denting, no marring. Seems to be fine. I did not take it out, just a q-tip and some CLP. So after ~500 rounds, no issues at all. Going to put another 100 down the pipe tonight.
I did buy a Talon Grip (rubber) for it. But have not yet installed it.

KeymasterBeen meaning’ to get to this for years.
“Smithed” the innards of my 45-YO S&W Model 66 stainless “snubbie.” Got the DA trigger pull as smooth as two flat pieces of glass sliding against one another. Added Craig Spegel combat grips. Sent it to off to get the Magna Trigger conversion installed.December 15, 2025 at 11:54 am #133010admin
KeymasterCleaned the guns. Finally put Loctite on my common carry holsters.
Debating a night sight for the bead on my 500.
Want to swap out the sights on my p320c for night sights since its my only pistol without them. Trying to decide if I am going to carry it or just shoot with it. Would change my sight choice a bit. Could do something fun if I’m just going to shoot with it, would only do Sig night sights if I carry it since that’s what all my other carry guns have.December 15, 2025 at 11:54 am #133012admin
KeymasterWas able to put about a hundred rounds thru each of my three Glock pistols yesterday.
Also got to shoot my cousins wife’s Glock 42. I have to say not a bad little piece.December 15, 2025 at 11:54 am #133013admin
KeymasterI was cleaning my Sigma 9C and the plastic rod inside the recoil spring broke at the tip.
I was surprised to say the least, I’ve had the pistol for many years and have never had a problem.
The new assembly will be here tomorrow, so I’m not going to be with out my primary CCW weapon for too long.
Smith and Wesson makes durable firearms, this was a surprise to me needless to say!December 15, 2025 at 11:54 am #133014admin

Smith and Wesson makes durable firearms, this was a surprise to me needless to say!thankfully it was while cleaning and not while firing. or when it really mattered.
as for me, i didn’t do anything to the gun, but i did buy it a case to keep it in instead of the top drawer of my dresser.

KeymasterMost just shot it…a lot. I have a Talon grip and a Taran mag extension coming in the mail.
