My 3 Glocks. A Glock 21 with Trijicon Night Sights, a Glock 21-C (Compensated) with standard sights, and a Glock 30 with Glock Night Sights. The only one left in .45 ACP I need to get is the single stack 36.   Bill T.

And I do too!!! But I should say that I love 1911s and Glocks. I take up for the Glock crowd because they are always dissed by the 1911 crowd.......  ;)

Nice pics of the Glocks! I have a G 30 and love it!

Has anyone tried these on their Mini Glocks?

http://glockstore.com/pgroup_descrip/3_Factory+Magazines+%26amp%3B+Extensions/6759_Magazine+Sleeve+for+Glock/?return=%3ftpl%3Dindex%26category_id%3D3%26_Factory%2BMagazines%2B%26amp%3B%2BExtensions%2F

They allow a full size magazine to be used in a Mini Glock, and not have it stick out like a sore thumb. It extends the grip surface, while still allowing for good concealability. I just ordered 4 of them and I'll post a report of how good they work when I get them.  Bill T.

Didn't mean any disrespect to your wife.

Sorry if I offended you or her.

Not all of us....... ;)     ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

I like Glocks too....they have a solid reputation and a place in this world, and Bill, those are some fine representatives you have there.






I own both.......I just happen to like 1911's a little better.... poke, poke.....       ;D  ;D  ;D  ;D

I love Glocks and wish all mine were in .45 ACP. But at least I have one. Glock 21 SF. Have thought about the mini. Maybe in time I may purchase one. Great photos.  ;D

I'm a little behind the times here...still in San Fran goo-gooing at the granddaughter. It's great. BUT....
.45 is my favorite and there's nothing like seeing a bunch of them hangin' out together. Nice pieces!

Please let us know about those Glock Magazine sleeves......I have a G30 and that looks like a good idea.

As soon as I get them I'll post some pics showing the fit, and what they look like. It seemed to be the most plausible solution to the short grip / big hands issue with the Mini glocks, and it gives you 3 more rounds in the .45 series of double stack Glocks. The reviews on MaGill's website are mixed as to customer satisfaction. Some really liked them, while others weren't all that satisfied as to the fit. Perhaps it has to do with the sleeve / magazine outer and inner dimensions. These things are manufactured in many different molds. At least the magazines are. Perhaps there is some slight variation in wall stock thickness from mold to mold. Either way I'll let you guys know how they look and feel.  Bill T.

One for the leg holster, one for in pant holster, one in a chest rig.  Now you just need this guy on a one point sling and your ready for all the Zombies!

While you are out there, there are some decent ranges in Redwood City and across the Bay in San Leandro.

They've been on back order, and I just got a E-Mail with a tracking number showing they've been shipped, and are due to arrive tomorrow. I'll try and get some pics posted with them attached to the 13 round Glock 21 magazine and inserted in the gun. I like MaGills. If anything is on backorder you order from them, they ship it on their dime as soon as it comes in.  Bill T.

Hi Bil,
Any word on those sleeves  ???

No Hurry,  Just Curious     :D

I am wondering about ordering for my Glock 30   ???

Thanks.

I got 4 of them and put them on 4, 13 round magazines I selected at random out of the ones I have. 3 went on easily with just the right fit. The fourth was a little loose so I tried it on 2 other magazines and it fit the same. It isn't a big deal because the set screw snugs it up nice. What I did was slip the sleeve over the mag, and run it down to the bottom. Then insert the mag into the gun, (obviously check to make sure everything is empty), to make sure it goes in properly without any resistance, then press the magazine release and lower it slightly and snug up the set screw. Then put it in and remove it several times to make absolutely sure there is no interference. All 4 work as intended, and they really make the grip better, (larger), for anyone like myself who has big hands. I'm going to get a few for my Glock 26. They make them for adapting the Glock 17 mags, and the Glock 19 mags to the Glock 26. I'm going to try both. I'll try and get some pictures up a little later.  Bill T.

They make those grip sleeves for Para Ordnance too, but only in one size, to fit a P-14 mag in a P-10. I cut 2 of the sleeves down to fit P-12 mags in my P-10 instead. I ended up cutting off the part with the set screw but they fit okay without it.
