Welcome to the forum, SST. 
What brand of night sights to you guys prefer? I recently purchased a G23, and I'm looking to have some installed. I've been looking at either Trijicon or Meprolight, but I can't decide which.

I bought the brand of night sights that Glock offered. I figured I'd buy everything on the gun @ once. I have the night sights and ILS on my G-22.
I hope to buy some hi cap mags and a light.

Factory G35 and G17 for the Mrs.- might put the extended mag release on the 17 'cause she has problems getting to it, her hands are a bit small.
Isn't the NY trigger 8 pounds??

Worried about NDs?
Not really,...Under stress conditions, I feel the stock 5lb pull is a little to light. I have a bad habit of staging the trigger. I've been training myself not to do that. For a carry gun (which is also the house gun) just feel better with the heavier pull. Cool thing is that there is no difference in accuracy.

I love my G26. Put metpro night sights on it and it needs nothing else. Well, it could use an owner with a CCW permit.............Oh yea, almost forgot, I live in Maryland!

Bad things Glock...........
Standard magazine and slide releases suck....extended units are outstanding.
Standard sights and G-34/35 Adjustables suck......Plenty of set-ups out there i.e., Dawson, CGR Race Cut Heinies or Ameriglo Operators that give outstanding uncluttered sight pictures with fully adjustable and non-fully adjustable options.
Standard triggers.....adequate but can always benefit from polishing and connector swaps.

Glock does not have a stock slide release, it's just a slide lock. Your susposed use the "slingshot" method to the chamber the first round.

OK. So?
Now that we have our nomenclature straight, why do you suppose GLOCK offers an extended "slide Lock" on their 34 & 35. I know what what GLOCK says, I have been an armorer since the early 90's - but realistically they have negated/marginalized their own sling shot instruction with the extended part.

Actually the nomenclature to which you refer (Slide Lock) is the part used to retain as well as facilitate removal of the slide. The nomenclature to which I was referring is in fact a slide stop lever, correcting my own small error here.
I think we ought to bump this thread every month or so till the end of time.
Canuck you suck.

Welcome to the site . SST I have a Glock 23 with Tru Glo TFO sights and a Storm Lake 357 Sig conversion barrel I had a Lasermax laser but removed it
Can I ask why you removed the lasermax? Do you still have it. Selling it cheap?
Vince, I would recommend the crimson trace over the lasermax, better laser sight and fully adjustable for windage and elevation. I saw them on gunbroker for like $189.00, they have come down in price considerably lately.
+1 on the extended slide release as well, the factory one is just too damn hard to operate in a stressful situation.
