    Hey Butch,
    I hate to bug you with goofball newbie questions....I just didn't know where to go for the info, and I don't want to violate the rules by posting in the wrong place, so...I thought of you.

    Just got my G30 yesterday, and I'm really excited. I need to find a good low profile IWB holster. I tried a Crossbreed Supertuck, but it's waaay too much holster, and with my big gut it's tough to get it to "disappear". To the point, can you refer me to a resource to explore my IWB options and / or other concealment stuff? Again, I hate to bug you. Thanks so much for all your help (past, present, and future.) Hopefully someday / somehow I can return the favor!

    Best,

    Steady

    I saw your post endorsing pin shooting. Where do you shoot pins, state that is?

    It's actually fun to mix it up with dummy rounds. It keeps you on edge and focused on staying smooth. I'll have to post a new range report once I get more time in. If the surf isn't up this weekend I may hit the range.

    Thank again for the tips!

How does a Glock work?

Very well!

After putting a loaded magazine in the magazine well, you let the slide slam shut to push a round out of the magazine and into the chamber. At the same time the rear edge of the trigger bar ‘grabs’ the firing pin lug


and pulls the firing pin part of the way back to a ‘partially cocked’ position.

GAPophobia

According to *Butch's* dictionary.....

GAPophobia:
An innate fear of the use by anyone of the .45 GAP cartridge in preference to the .45 ACP cartridge.

GAPophobes always seem to want to argue about how there is no purpose for the .45 GAP cartridge, no reason for it to exist. No amount of bandwidth wastage on the subject is too much!

They completely and callously disregard the fact that some people don't have hands that...

It's not uncommon for folks (especially new Glock owners) to not quickly understand how to use the supplied magazine loading tool, so, here ya go!

Put the mag loader over the top of the magazine tube and push it all the way down to make room for the next cartridge.



While holding the loading tool down, start the round into the mag by pushing it back against the mag...

A lot of Glock owners (and some ‘would be’ Glock owners), are afraid that the trigger spring on their Glock will break and then the gun won’t work. Not true! You just need to know how to work it!

Some Glockers will go so far as to replace the coil trigger spring with a New York trigger spring to insure that they don’t have a breakage. This does work OK, but it also makes the trigger pull a whole lot heavier, and it’s really not needed.

Most of the time when a coil trigger...

Glock makes three connectors and three trigger springs:




Use of the coil spring with any of the three connectors gives a trigger break weight of approximately the weight listed for the connector used. Changes in the power of springs involved, and apparently inaccurate weight...
