Thomas Moore Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 very nice, probably the best looking open class glock i've seen i would love to shoot it, where abouts are you from? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openglock34 Posted February 16, 2005 Author Share Posted February 16, 2005 thank you for mounting my pic SL i am about ten years behind the technology power curve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric nielsen Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Very VERY nice. Never seen a Carver mount look anything but ugly. Yours is just nails. Are you using the right side of the mount? Curious what the other side looks like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chp5 Posted February 16, 2005 Share Posted February 16, 2005 Wow - looks great. Is it a modified, stock slide? Let us know how it shoots! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openglock34 Posted February 16, 2005 Author Share Posted February 16, 2005 i am located at camp pendleton ca (san diego area) i am using both sides of the mount, it is modified though so the mount sits all the way to the rear of the slide, it is normally about an inch forward. the slide is stock and modified for two reasons 1. caspian is too lazy to make new ones and 2. the stock slide is longer which i like and is already lightened to be as light as the 17 slide and has the top hole for the hybrid ports. the slide racker is also NHO but it comes straight so i had it modified to the angle you see it at Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trey Posted February 17, 2005 Share Posted February 17, 2005 openglock, Very nice! Who did the hard chrome on the THE magwell? You've induced magwell envy. I want mine done as well. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

openglock34 Posted February 17, 2005 Author Share Posted February 17, 2005 Trey, it is not hardchrome it is beadblasted hardchrome does not stick well to magwells. Took the gun to the range last night.....Shoots awesome better then i thought my main goal was to have it be competitive with the st sv's out there and it absolutely shoots flat i only had time to put about 80 rounds through it so there is alot of breaking in to do with the barrel as well as new hardchrome is very sticky. But for a first run it was awesome now i get to enter the endless battle of loads and spring weights to find what is absolutely the best configuration, so if anyone wants to put in their $.02 let me know -shawn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
driver8M3 Posted February 18, 2005 Share Posted February 18, 2005 looks a lot like forum member carlos' open glock: http://www.brianenos.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=17079 i'd show my open glock 34...but it would be quite lame compared to these other 2. mine is a plain old 34 with a doctor sight and eric w's tru grip added. but then mine is really only for gssf use.

openglock34 Posted February 18, 2005 Author Share Posted February 18, 2005 it is kind of similiar to carlos' gun, same concepts. mine is a little shorter comp because the gun is long enough as it is, and i have a different mount (same idea) and i do not have the custom deluxe ice magwell hoodadd on my gun. For anyone who cares to see my work space i put my reloading bench is the reloading bench department. it is like on page 7 or something crazy like that. -shawn p.s. thanks for all of the great reviews of the gun i shot it again last night at a little steel match and it is working great so far. as flex says "my gun didnt require financing" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

openglock34 Posted February 18, 2005 Author Share Posted February 18, 2005 haha.......for a glock, you 1911'ers are coming around you just fear change cost approx $2,000.00 ish from very very beginning to where it is today dont have an exact number that that is a good estimate. still not cheap but not that $2600.00 avg to start STI race gun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jasonub Posted February 19, 2005 Share Posted February 19, 2005 damn thats expensive. how did you mount the c more mount? did you have to drill it all the way throug and stop before you hit the recoil spring? the barrel i assume is an aftermarket supported kind?

openglock34 Posted February 19, 2005 Author Share Posted February 19, 2005 just a smile experiment, never used one before Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openglock34 Posted February 19, 2005 Author Share Posted February 19, 2005 it is expensive but not really when you compare it to what some people have in a 1911 which can easily exceed 3grand. the barrel is aftermarket it is a kkm. im kind of lost in your question as to the cmore..you lost me at the recoil spring part. there was no drilling anywhere on the mount. it slides over the rail and is locked in by a piece on the bottom and the other part above the trigger replaces one of the 3 pins that trigger is attached too and the cmore itself is held onto the mount by the two mounting screws that screw into threaded holes in the mount base. i hope that helps...the whole thing probably would have been cheaper had i done it all right the first time..but what fun is that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jros3e Posted March 23, 2005 Share Posted March 23, 2005 I am in love with your gun openglock34.I have already a open glock 17 with caspian slide etc from Tom Novak with Carver Mount but i want and another like yours!!!!I will soon order one in Tom. Please can you tell my infos about the bullets that you use?(major reloading) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
openglock34 Posted March 26, 2005 Author Share Posted March 26, 2005 thanks for loving my gun.....it uh.....loves you too...i guess anyway.. i use 8.3 gr hs6 behind a montana gold 125 gr 357 sig bullet oal is 1.135 and here is the good stuff that load averages 1368 fps and has a power factor average of 171.0 alot more pf then i need but i made a real small batch of 8.2 gr and they didnt run right and i really didnt feel like experimenting. hope that helps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eric nielsen Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 171 power factor is perfect for the USA. It's what I try to get every time. Thanks for the load info, I'll be making some ammo similar to that real soon, but with a 125gr Zero JHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
