Glock 22 upgrades/Modifications

[rogersda]

Hello, I just recently purchased a Glock 22 which is my first handgun purchase. I have enjoyed the gun so far but I know there are alot of upgrades and modifications that can be done to them. I am looking for suggestions on where to get started and what you liked or disliked. I am already interested a 3.5 lb trigger and have TFO sights already on it.

If anyone has picks I would love to see them as well!


Thanks!

Definitely do the .25 cent trigger job before getting that 3.5lb trigger bar. I was planning on getting the ghost but after I did all the polishing I felt that I improved my trigger enough to not buy the 3.5 trigger bar.

What gen did you buy? You might want enhance the grip with either stippling, talon or grip tape, or a rubber wrap around sleeve.

Got a Gen 3. Just watched a YouTube video about the trigger job, it looks pretty straight forward.

Yeah it's very easy. Just take your time. You don't want to remove material just polish. Here's some other worthwhile upgrades

Glock Extended Slide Stop Lever

Stainless Steel Guide Rod

Titanium Pin Kit

Slug PLug

Aluminum Slide Cover Plate

The absolute best upgrade to a Glock is...









More magazines and lots & lots of ammo!

I agree with Glock 'em down. A 3.5lb connector and different sights are the only real mods worth doing if you're going to become an active shooter. The Glock stock front sight is too wide. I invested in some third party base pads for my mags, so I can take them down easier. They also add 5 or 6 rounds capacity.

Shoot, clean, lube, and repeat. IMO, no need to do a bunch of fancy mods; just spend money on ammo and shoot the crap out of it. Best mod is probably a decent holster and belt. And unless you are a gunsmith, or otherwise highly highly qualified, I'd recommend that you step away from the dremel, files, and sandpaper. Shoot, clean, lube and repeat. Personnally, I get no more abrasive with a gun than a Q-tip or bore brush. Well, maybe not abrasive, but I did speak rather harshly to one of my guns the other day for chasing all around the bullseye...

^^^This,all my Glocks have 3.5 connector and after market sights.

I have a grip force adapter on my G22c. I liked the grip so much I put one on my G27 also. If you had the cash I have a guide rod laser, it's not used alot but when taking down at night it works very well.
