Paul Sharp Posted November 12, 2001 Share Posted November 12, 2001 Tried my friends 21 with a brass plug and heavier guide rod and really liked the feel. What are some recommended mag wells, mag base plates or other accessories? (naturally competition proven only) I will be tooling up a model 22 if that is any help in reference to suggestions. Thanks.

cpty1 Posted November 12, 2001 Share Posted November 12, 2001 I like the T.H.E. Accessories mag well in aluminum, however those who like the extra weight on the frame go with the brass model of the same make. I don't shoot limited, so I only use plus zero base pads. I like the aluminum ones available from Glockmeister, but be careful putting them on. It's real easy to break off part of the pad above the "slot" if you're not careful. If you're looking for plus two, three, or five extensions, I'm sure a cruise of the glock forum here will provide substantial information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Sharp Posted November 12, 2001 Author Share Posted November 12, 2001 Thanks Chris, I asked my friend some more questions about his 21. He has a 3.5# connector and a reduced power recoil spring. This might explain in part, the great "feel" this gun has. This gun will really rock, although I can't shoot up to it he can. He is a little cautious about doing a lot to the 40 without first changing the barrel. What is a good barrel and is it necessary? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted November 12, 2001 Share Posted November 12, 2001 A new barrel is only needed if you plan to shoot lead bullets. I still shoot with the factory Glock barrel in my G35. I have no plans to change it. I won't be shooting any lead bullets either. If you want to get an after-market barrel, look to KKM or Barsto.

Nik Habicht Posted November 12, 2001 Share Posted November 12, 2001 As far as Magazine extensions go, I like the Arredondo Pads for the Glock Mags. Tough, affordable, and best of all they separate easily for cleaning with the supplied tool. In magwells I really like the Tac-Rac for the 17/22 frame sizes, its available through http://www.classicpistol.com. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cpty1 Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 I agree that a barrel change isn't necessary unless you're going to shoot lead. If that's the case, I would go with the Barsto. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom Glock Racing Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 Paul, I use a THE brass magwell and tungsten rod for all my comp guns, the magwell is well deisnged and has good angles and the extra weight of those parts really helps flatten the gun. For Basepads I use THE or Taylor Freelance, both are excellant. I am in the midst of testing the new Arredondo pads as well. Matt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debbie Posted November 13, 2001 Share Posted November 13, 2001 The Arredondo base pads so far are excellent. I have been using them for about three weeks and just shot Area 2 with them. I love them! You can easily get all 20 rnds in the 40 cal and a full mag will seat easily for fast reloading and drop free as well. They are easy to take off for cleaning and very durable. I have been dropping them on concrete with no problems. They won't crack or pop off. Debbie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
