Tried some "Mexican Carry" around the house in some Boxers and a Tight T-Shirt, cant even see the darn thing. I like it, I like it alot.
Take down was alittle tricky.

They got some Fancy Toys for the Glocks out there.
I agree with you. I prefer to pocket a snub nose of anything (something about the grip angle just works better). But I'd like to find something that could hold my G27 and/or Walther PPS securely in a pocket if I needed to do so in a pinch.

Be careful with Mexican carry with a Glock - don't want to Plaxico yourself. Unloaded around the house is fine, but I wouldn't do it with a round in the chamber.

That should match your pink range bag nicely. :evil2:

I've (accidentally) gotten solvent on the plastic before and it didn't hurt it but I would still try to keep it away.
I've used solvent on my Glocks for years and never had a problem. Scrub out the receiver just like any other with Shooter's Choice. Only thing I've avoided is the spray-can solvents unless they specifically say "polymer safe formula" then I'll use them sparingly on the plastic parts.

That's a darn fine gun and quite a good compliment to a full-size 9mm like a Hi-Power. Same ammo, smaller size, once you get used to the trigger I think you'll find it's the closest you're going to get to a single-action pull in a double-action firearm. I'd highly recommend a "-" or "N" or "3.5" connector (all different names for the same part) to lighten the trigger pull just a bit.

If you want night sights, GT Distributors has some good deals - I paid about $65 for Ameriglo/Trijicon with a green front and yellow rear. They installed them free because I bought my G27 (used) from them, but I think they'll install on any gun for about $10.

How do you plan to pocket carry? Front pocket? Rear pocket? Side/cargo pants pocket? Curious if you find a pocket holster you like - I'm still looking, though I'm thinking about ordering one from Mika's Pocket Holsters. I picked up one of his for a snub revolver and like it so far - well designed and put together - nice reinforced top stays open for reholstering.

Anyway, congrats on a great purchase. And just know that you'll never make that gun choke-n-puke (to borrow the Jerry Reed line from "Smokey and the Bandit") no matter what ammo you feed it. Only ammo trouble I've ever had with a Glock is Blazer aluminum case on my Glock 23.
