Glocks notorious for jamming with....

[hvymax]

You think that has alot to do with it?? I know that limp wristing causes jams for a ton of folks out there.

I always thought your wrist had to be pretty limp to accomodate that grip angle.

Actually, everybody that knows me knows that when I go Double Glock that I like to go Glock Akimbo with my matched and pimpolicious pair.

Heh heh, you got some purdy and effeminent hands there Huck....

I've shot the shit out of numerous 3rd gen G22's with Streamlight M3 and M6 attached and never had an issue - probably 5K rounds combined on them all with the light attached. Shot the 17, 19 or 23 all gen 3 with the same lights and never has issues either, but the round count wasn't up as high.

I have not touched anything post gen 3.

Streamlight has a FAQ on this on their web site. They claim it was 10 coil mag springs causing the problem. Supposedly solved with 11 coil magazine springs. No idea if that was the actual issue

Turning up to 11 fixes a great many things.

tlr1 on my g23 and never hiccuped in the 1,000 rounds ive shot it,

I was holding the camera

That was my model, Sally Rottencrotch, she's better with a golf ball and a garden hose than a Glock.

thats why i use a 1911.......

 

[ALBY]

first of all, i am a glock fan and have many glock pistols.

one of my good friends used to be the armorer for the largest department in maryland that issues g22 to its officers.

there were jamming problems with their guns.

glock advised a #5 follower and 11 coil springs as the fix.

still, i will not run a light on my g22. take what you will from that.

 

[booker]

Glock frames flex with or without a light. So do 1911 frames, wheelgun frames, M1 Garand stocks, AK-47s, AR-15s, and Remington 870s. Some flex more than others.

I suggest you do a direct comparison, shooting several magazines and alternative between light on the frame and light off. Shoot at least 50 rounds and don't modify your grip. If it is jamming with the light you'll likely know it, as it should never jam without the light.

You don't need to get it gorilla tight on the rail. What you don't want to do is crank it down until the allen-key shears off and then back it out a 1/4 turn. Get it snug and then perhaps another 1/8th turn to lock it in.

I havent had a problem with my gen4 g19 with or without my tlr-1 installed, only about 2K through it though.

 

[GUNMANSUPERSTAR]

Got the light on the 22c and am ready to shoot that badboy. Might shoot it this weekend if I get a chance!! I will let you guys know the feedback. To me if it will cycle a box of 50, the glock should be ready to rock. I personally think it will run smooth as ever!!

I heard that too!

I heard that too!

It is almost like a syndrome in some ppl nowadays. From Long Island to Hollywood!!

You don't need to muzzle something to ID it with a WML.

Here's the question. How do you open doors, clear malfunctions, push your daughter out of the way with a handheld light in one hand, a firearm in the other, AND still keep the threat illuminated?

sorry I couldn't resist.

 

[GUNMANSUPERSTAR]

sorry I couldn't resist.

Like I am gonna strap that head thong with a light attached to my head while some ******* is breaking into my place!! I will take my chances with my weapon light!!

You should try duct taping a 6 D-cell Maglight to your G21!!!

The only issue is when the slide comes back, you might get hit in the head with the flashlight.

Don't tell me you know someone that tried this??

Nah. Just a feeble attempt at humor.

Not to mention . . . . finding a holster would be a PITA!
