Shot 50 rounds today -- CCI AR Tactical -- 100 %.

Tried to use my McFadden Machine Lightnin Grip Loader with the Glock Advantage Arms Adapter(#30).

The Glock 44 magazine would fit in the loader (tight) but the Grip loader would not feed the rounds in the magazine.

I messed with the McFadden loader today -- was able to load 8 to 10 round in the magazine -- The trigger on the loader was a little harder to toggle, than others, but got it to work.

Bought the threaded barrel for my Glock 44 and another adapter for my Micro Osprey:

I bought the barrel and adapter for mine also. I can't get the CCI subsonic to cycle right. Are they just too low powered to cycle? What's everyone experience with a subsonic round that will still cycle reliable. Using a sparrow suppressor and stock G44. Everything else works 100%.

If you are only worried about the sonic crack, even mini-mags will stay subsonic in a pistol. They are only rated at 1070 out of a rifle. They ran in my gun before I swapped to heavier sights.

I’d suggest trying some standard velocity CCI. Mine ran in my gun with stock sights.

With 9mm at $.35/round and I have a lot of .22 stocked up I decided to buy a G44 for training. (Found 1 in Tulsa and the NICS was delayed. Can't pick it up until later this week.)

I'd really like to replace the front sight with something my aging eyes can pick up quickly. Something like a hiviz in yellow or green. I'll probably just leave rear sight as is or black out the white line. What aftermarket sights have you guys run without affecting functionality of the pistol?

I like rimfire and rimfire accessories. Yup. Mmhmm

You don't need to ruin the rear sight, just turn it around backwards. As for front sights, @Mad Professor has probably done more sight fiddling on G44s than anyone on here

You might know this already, but the other posters may not. It’s my understanding that most 22lr rounds remain subsonic went fired from barrels that are 4 inches or shorter.
