    I have gotten used to the stock glock trigger. Shoot it a ton, figure out what you want....

    my p320 has a light trigger, which it needed, it was way too heavy. The glock is easier for me, for some reason.

    I'm starting to learn that. My 43 has the same trigger as my 19. Which I'm accurate with. Why change it /

    I guess I've just been spoiled by the triggers in my 1911s. Not necessarily light but no creep and break like glass. I will just have to get used to the difference by shooting it a bunch! No complaints here. It's not like I'm really going to be feeling the difference in the triggers in a life or death situation anyways, only during target practice.

    Hell yes. This is more of what I was looking for. Very helpful, thank you.

    How do you think those mods have changed to usability/performance of the gun?

    Swapping the sights would definitely improve the gun. Glock's factory sights are pretty crappy for accurate shooting (at least for me they are). I've never cared for that goal post rear sight they have. Triple dots work much better for me. :notsure:

    I got my buddy into shooting. Took him so he could shoot mine. He bought the same gun that day. Took it in and shot it and was all "Wtf!!!?"
    I told him you have about $500 more to put into it before it shoots like mine.
    He went home with that same list and ordered everything from glockstore.com. He loves it now.

    To answer your question about performance:
    The S.S. guide rod adds weight as well as durability which helps in keeping the muzzle down while rapid shooting.
    The new slide release protrudes just a bit more than stock which helps with break down.
    The new trigger is self explanatory, much smoother and crisper. I went with the Ultimate Pyramid Trigger and put the 4lb trigger pull spring in, 6 was to much and 2 was to little. Just awesome is all I can say.
    The mag release button drops the mag much easier making for faster mag swaps.
    The sights are better, they glow in the dark. The sights are better for target acquisition.
    The cover plate is just decorative, I was in the Navy so I put the Navy logo on it.
    I also have a litany of holsters but I prefer to carry in my Trump holster.

    This is my CC gun so I wanted durable, but I dont baby this thing in the least. It's always clean like all my guns, but I throw it in my backpack in its holster and dont even think twice about it banging around cause I can't carry at work.

    Here's the holster thanks to @Unchained 5150:

    Just ordered one myself. This is not going to go over well with the wife, but at that price, it's worth it. Unfortunately they only had the model with the thumb safety left in stock, but I can live with that.

    If this is going to be a daily carry you might want to rethink the stippling as in summer it can be rough on the side....
