Re: Buying Glock 26

I frequently carry a G26 in a Comp-Tac CTAC holster.

The 3.5# connector actually brings the trigger pull to around 4.5#. Use the genuine Glock part. This is the only aftermarket internal accessory I recommend.

I put a "gapper" in the back of the grip . . . it's basically a cosmetic mod.

For carry ammo, I've been using Speer Gold Dot +P+, but its getting hard to find . . . I'm looking seriously at Winchester Ranger 127 +P+.

The G19 is very nearly as concealable as the G26 if worn in an IWB holster. Yet, oddly, I shoot my G26 better than I do my G19.

Some Glocks are prone to "limp wrist syndrome" . . . my Gen 1 G17 doesn't work very well if I give it to my mother to shoot. On the other hand, even when shooting with a deliberately unlocked wrist and a two-finger grip, I haven't been able to make my Gen 3 G26 malfunction. When you get one, and you're comfortable with it, try to deliberately induce a "limp wrist" failure. If there's no problem, well and good. If you DO get a malfunction, switching to hotter or heavier ammo may help.
