mshotwell Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 I'm considering changing to a different limited gun. I've been shooting a mostly stock Para P16 limted. It shoots great, I have no problems with it. The new gun will be a Limited gun only, I have a production gun I really like. I'm planning on sticking to 40 cal. I don't want to get in to a discussion about which is better. What would you build? Model, accessories, mods, etc. Why you decided on them. Pictures are good. Im going try a buddies 35 to see how I like it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rising Sight Posted May 10, 2009 Share Posted May 10, 2009 Dave Sevigny does alright with a Glock. You can't go wrong with a 35. Get a magwell,sights and clean up the trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlmiller1 Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Like everyone else, I would build the glock I shoot now. I have a 35 with KKM barrel. It has had the grip modded, trigger undercut some, & the body rolled in epoxy & very fine gravel. I've got the lower parts of a Vanek trigger in it. I have a tungsten guide rod with a very well worn 15lb spring in it. Also a THE brass magwell & Truglo fiber optic sights. I really like this gun & have been shooting it for @3 years or so. It was originally built in Germany, I heard from the guy I bought it from. It has a very unique mag release button. It is square, metal, & extends to the rear a fair amount. I haven't seen another one like it. That is what I would build. It has been very reliable when I feed it decent ammo. MLM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caspian guy Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Glock 24. Add a decent set of sights some trigger work and a magwell. Maybe lighten the slide a bit. One of the cheapest routes to long slide limited guns I have come across. Peter Adams FY-39604 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Smith Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 The G20 is the sleeper Limited gun. Why a 10mm? For the same PF, won't it shoot about the same as a .40? And brass is really tough to find! --Confused-- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And brass is really tough to find! --Confused-- But you could change the barrel to a 40 S&W and shoot it. Been a few people here that have done that. I guess it is due to them have larger hands and it reduces recoil some? That is my guess, but it has been so long that I shot anything I forget how to load the dang thing.

Flexmoney Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 --Confused-- Not in 10mm. Run it in 40. Soft shooting and runs like...a Glock. The G20 has a bigger grip, which...for me...requires adjusting my hold some. I never made the switch, because I was so used to my G35. But, I do think it's a better option (we have one...my gf shoots it, as it is much softer shooting than my G35). The new SF versions lessen that grip "bigness" some. (disclaimer - I haven't shot the SF version.) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
L-10_shooter Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Is the point of using a G20 to load long? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flexmoney Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 No. It just shoots easier. Perhaps it's the width of the grip that spreads the recoil out. Maybe it is the weight of the slide. Could be something else. I don't know, but is shoots easier. My girlfriend won't shoot my G35 at Major power factor, but she will shoot the same loads out of the G20...all day long. Heck, she was happy shooting factory ammo (WWB) out of it even (which isn't nearly as soft as my reloads). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham Smith Posted May 13, 2009 Share Posted May 13, 2009 Not in 10mm. Run it in 40. Load the .40 a bit long and run it in a stock G20? Interesting idea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You might have missed the post where I said the idea wasn't to run long loaded 40? That is certainly an idea (folks do run 40 through the 10mm barrel), but... We dropped a KKM barrel in to our G20 that is has the chamber cut for 40 length. The gun runs the same length loads that I run in my G35 (1.135OAL), and it runs factory Winchester White Box.

I don't have particularly small hands, but I've handled a G21 and in someways like the feel better than the G17 size frame. Now, all I need to do is to win a new Glock in a GSSF match...

nphd2000 Posted May 14, 2009 Share Posted May 14, 2009 I'll chime in with my opinion. I thought the "Ideal" limited Glock would be a Stainless CCF frame with a lightened G35 slide, stock barrel, Fiber optic front and rear site (your choice of brand) "The" magwell (because I could make it fit the CCF), mako slide racker, Lightened striker and all springs, tungsten (Heavy) guide rod, and a scary short, light trigger with all safeties still functional. Then I thought "what about a G24 slide" but I couldn't get the 24 slide to get along with the CCF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
