RexKramer Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Can you guys with Gen 4 pistols post up some pics??? I can post a few, but in all honesty, it's a Glock. Seen one, ya seen them all... Gen4 G34. I use it for mostly IDPA ESP. It has Dawson Ice magwell and I have +200 extentions on the mags. It will fit in an IDPA box, but it's tight. That's the medium backstrap with beavertail. It also has Warren Tactical Sevigny sights and the Jager steel guiderod that allows you to use one piece springs rather than the Gen4 dual spring system. Tried to get that in the second and third pics. The discoloration is due to the pic, not the gun itself. I also put in the JK trigger which also works very well. It's around 3lbs, smooth, and has been reliable with WWB, Freedom Munition reloads, and Atlanta Arms and Ammo reloads. I also put on an OEM extended mag release as the Gen4 mag release was still too low profile for my liking. The new one works well. Single spring guide rod Hope this helps... let me know if there are any specifics you'd like to see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jriggs Posted June 23, 2014 Author Share Posted June 23, 2014 Do those TTI extensions work we'll with the ZEV mag we'll or are there any modifications needed for proper fit?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A little bit of dremel so the retaining rod from the TTI extension wouldn't hit the magwell Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And is that magwell designed to work with that backstrap or does it take some tinkering? I have the Dawson pads, so I don't know about TTIs. The Dawsons work perfectly (and they do have plus 4/5 extentions. The ones I have don't add capacity). The magwell is designed to work with certain sized back straps. I ordered the one that goes with the Med backstrap. It will work with the Med or no back strap. The only difference I can tell is the screw would stick out slightly with no backstrap attached. If you ordered the large version, it should work with L/M/None, but the screw in the back would stick out some. Truth be told, it wouldn't make much of a difference while shooting IMO. The insert I have is aluminum to keep it legal. They also make a brass weighted one if that's what you're looking for. I've only shot a couple matches and a little bit of practice/dry fire with the setup, but it seems to work well. Reloads are easy and I've put about 500 rounds of AA&A and WWB through a 13lb spring on the Jager guid rod with no problems.

jriggs Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) this is why I'm leaning towards just snagging a Gen 3? it's confusing as hell Edited June 24, 2014 by jriggs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bulldog009 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I took a dremel to the pin on the rear of the basepad and reduced its length and cut it at an angle so it would still have good purchase on the back of the mag but still be able to clear the magwell.

bulldog009 Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 I also have and have used Dawson's basepads but prefer TTI's because of the color, and the Dawson's made noise if you shook them when loaded like something was wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jriggs Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 yeah they really are sweet! the TTI stuff is pretty much "perfection attained" in my book...so it's all I'm going to be running on all my stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RexKramer Posted June 24, 2014 Share Posted June 24, 2014 hey RexKramer...do you now the part # for that magwell??? This should be the one for the Gen4 with a medium backstrap: https://www.dawsonprecision.com/ProductDetail.jsp?LISTID=800000C7-1388517817 Here is the main listing with all their magwells and plugs. Mine has the aluminum one to keep is ESP legal in IDPA, but they do have heavier ones available. https://www.dawsonprecision.com/CategoryProductList.jsp?cat=MAGWELLS%2C+MAIN+SPRING+HOUSINGS+AND+BACKSTRAPS:Magwell+Glock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jriggs Posted June 24, 2014 Author Share Posted June 24, 2014 ok looks like everything i'll want to do I can get it done with a Gen4. I've found and checked off all the parts i'll need. thanks for the help guys, the glock stuff can be a little confusing when you're not used to it. now I just need to wait till the parts I need are in stock Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblacknight Posted June 25, 2014 Share Posted June 25, 2014 One thing still lacking for the gen 4 is a good oversized magazine release. I personally would build on a gen 3 just because the availability of more add on options. Thats because the smaller grip of the gen 4 plus the ALREADY huge stock magazine button kinda precludes a gonza gamer button. Glock sells the FBI gen 4 release.

Gooldylocks Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I shoot a G35 Gen 4, and had no problems getting what I needed. The smaller grip size of the Gen 4 guns fits me way better with my small hands. I run a Zev stainless heavy magwell with dawson basepads, and they hit the inside of the magwell just a bit when you fully seat the mags. Not enough to be an issue at all but enough that the black color on my bases is scratched off where it contacts.

The gen 4 mag release has large area but it is kind of nested in which I find to be an issue with both the gen 3 and gen 4 small mag releases. I think it is still better than the small gen 3 mag release but that isn't saying much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moltke Posted July 2, 2014 Share Posted July 2, 2014 Get a chance to handle or shoot them side by side? I'm sure you know people who have Glocks, just ask. Find out which YOU like better and then "pull the trigger" so to say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jriggs Posted July 21, 2014 Author Share Posted July 21, 2014 So the pistol came in and I got to work right away... It's now running a ZEV Fulcrum trigger, TTI sights, ZEV uncaptured guide rod and blue spring, a Dawson ICE magwell (medium backstrap) and them some TTI base pads to finish it off.

bdaviswlk Posted September 13, 2014 Share Posted September 13, 2014 I'm currently building a glock 23L to shoot at my range. All of my parts will be here Monday. I'm using a LW glock 22 Stainless slide/LW 40-9L barrel(4.49) and the lone wolf dc1 dust cover. Has anyone on here done this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
