RobfromME Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Good afternoon, all, Will the Dawson ICE Magwell for a Glock 22 work on a Gen 2 frame without fitting? I noticed that the one made by Glockmiester is specific as to whether or not the gun has finger grooves. Thank you in advance for any help you can offer.

Micah Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 It will fit, but it may require a little fitting. I needed to remove a little material to get my Ice magwell on Gen 3 lowers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobfromME Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Thanks so much for the info! Did you have to remove material from the magwell or the grip frame? Thanks again for taking the time to help. Warmest regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Micah Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I removed a little material from the magwell itself so that it would fit around the front portion of the receiver. No need to Dremel your Glock baby You may not have any fitting issues at all, but if you do, just remove a little at a time, then check to see the fit.

RobfromME Posted June 25, 2010 Author Share Posted June 25, 2010 Thanks, Micah. I was on the fence between the Glockmiester and the Dawson. I really only considered the Glockmiester since it specifically mentioned the older frame style (non-finger groove) like I shoot. However, it's good to know the Dawson will do fine...it looks like the best of the batch in my (very!) limited experience. Thanks again for the input.

jordonhurd Posted July 21, 2010 Share Posted July 21, 2010 I just put a Dawson magwell on my Gen 2. It fit pretty good, I just took a piece of emery cloth to smooth the spot where the magwell and grip came into contact and it works great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HS101 Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 Mine fit great - - - Until I moved it to my 24 . I didn't have to do anything special other than a little "love tap" to get it to seat/mate up fully with the gun... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Five of Clubs Posted July 22, 2010 Share Posted July 22, 2010 My magwell slid onto my 2nd Gen G22 with no fitting at all. I think there was a trick to it but I can't remember exactly what it was. I think I had to hook it around the front strap first and then bring it up for screw alignment. Anyways, here's a pic: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobfromME Posted July 23, 2010 Author Share Posted July 23, 2010 Thanks to everyone for the valuable information. I purchased the ICE and had it on my G22 Gen II in minutes. It fit like a glove and is a quality piece. Once again, I appreciate the time and input from everyone. Thank you! Warmest regards, Rob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
