OPEN GLOCKS
in Glock
Here is my Custom Glock 23 gen4 Open in all of it's phases of development.
I really enjoy it.
I built it with parts from Carver Custom, ZEV (trigger, firing pin, plunger), Wolfe Springs, LoneWolf, Taran Tactical Innovations, Burris, EGWGuns, Viridian, chrome "pins, extended mag release, .slide lock", Reduced mag release spring, Gen3 Recoil Rod with reduced weight recoil spring, Extended Slide Pull, Appaloosa Grips (cowboy in me).
It has a 2.5Lb average trigger pull (Lyman digital), shoots Freedom REMAN 40sw flawlessly, generates lightning and thunder out of the comp.
The beauty of this gun is I can convert it back to factory in less than 15 minutes (with compensator) or 24 hours with comp removed and original Glock barrel re-installed.
Disclosure: I did pre-order a STI DVC Open in 9mm ETA November 2015.

Hello Forum Members
I participated in my first USPSA match on 3/15 and am addicted. Bought Brian's book yesterday realizing I need to become OneWithTheGun. Great experience. Been a competitive sports guy my entire life, surfing, skateboarding, skiing, tennis, basketball, baseball and P.A.L Boxing.
Aging knees won't let me do most of these activities but they held up OK for USPSA night so I'm totally psych'd.
I just pre-orderd an STI DVC Open in 9mm. I know, I know it's not the gun that will resolve my current limitations, but I'm an older dude and I don't have decades to develop and evolve into Open. Need to to turbo-charge my way with technology, tenaciousness and a little transcendental meditation.
While I wait impatiently for the STI DVC Open, I'll be using a customized Glock, tricked out with 3rd party components in 40 SW. Here is the Glock in it's many evolutionary phases.
Cheers,
Austin

NJ Resident here.....Thanking you guys in advance!!
I pre-ordered a STI DVC Open (with deposit) and then discovered "NO" 15 round magazines. A 10 Round alternative would put me at such a disadvantage in USPSA that I was thinking of backing out of the purchase altogether and forfeiting the deposit. An out-of-state gunsmith was my Plan B but I was concerned that without experience with a 2011 magazine and STI characteristics, I might have so many FTF & FTE that I again, would be clearing more than firing.
I know of Springer Precision and am now totally jazzed over my decision for the DVC !!
