Greg Bell Posted October 24, 2007 Share Posted October 24, 2007 A buddy of mine has one and I've shoot a few magazines worth. I have smallish hands and had no trouble with my grip and getting proper trigger reach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heijutsu Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 My buddy bought me a G21SF. It shoots wonderfully and doesn't kick as bad as I thought it would. One thing to keep in mind though is that magazines that fit the old G21 do not work in the G21SF without modification. When I got this gun I bought two 13 rounders and a 25 rounder for it and found that these older style magazines wouldn't lock into the frame. I then noticed that the new magazines have a small rectangle cut into on the front part that the older styles don't have. You can, and I have modified these types of magazines to work by cutting this rectangle into the front of the magazines and this works fine. I don't think you would ever regret getting a G21SF.

tulsamal Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 My big question is when/if there will be a 20 SF! Surely they wouldn't make a G21 SF and not make a 20!! Anybody heard anything about a 10mm version? Gregg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anybody heard anything about a 10mm version? Gregg I am sure it is on the way. All new Glock mags are cut for the ambi safety. I am suretheframes will all be changed when the current batch of molds are shot. I myself want a 20SS and a 29SF. I havetheG21SF on theway now.

Ara Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 I tested a 21SF and then got one. I have since switched to it for duty along with a G30 to replace my G23 for off-duty. I shot it out of the box and was getting .13 splits on demand. It shoots surpisingly soft and tracks even better especially as a big-bore. Most of all, the new grip fills the hands just enough, even with Tru-grip. (The medium frames are nice but just a shade on the small side especially for the support hand). The angle is not as extreme and it feels obviously different from the old 21 and medium frames. I use Heinie 3-dot tritiums to make this already accurate gun even better. The Trijicon sights don't do it justice. I also have a commited TLR-1 light with no malfunctions. I have fired over 700 rds with 8 different 21SF mags topped off to 13 without one hickup. Speer Gold Dot and Blazer 230 gr chrono at 200 PF! I received mine from a GSSF match with an ambi mag release by mistake? I had requested the standard. (which by the way, frames are mag release specific and not interchangable). I was originally concerned about the corner of the mag release digging in but it has not been an issue for me even after a 300 rd day. A concern may be, however, the vulnerability of now having both sides bumped in a gun grab situation but I am not aware of one documented situation of even one side being a factor. I suppose I could file it down. If you had to order one and are right handed, I would stick to the standard model. The 21SF mags work in the G30 so I can use those as spares instead of the standard 10 rounder. For defensive/duty use, its hard to beat if you want a full size gun. A very accurate, light-weight gun with 14 rds of 45 ACP and ultra-reliable. I believe it also has huge potential for IDPA. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
