I may look for a 20 next. I do like the full size Glocks
I would highly recommend the pinky mag extension for all your Glock 29 mags. It makes them a little longer and harder to conceal, but they help a lot:

Or they also make adapters that will mount on a Glock 20 mag to "convert" the 29 to the 20:

The one downside to the adapters is that changing mags quickly tended to pinch my palm between the frame and the adapter. If you want, I can see if I have any left over in my boxes of spare parts. I *might* have included them when I sold my 29, but it was too long ago to remember!

Wow, the wording of this change is insanity at best! A blank AR receiver would be considered a firearm if it is "sold, distributed OR POSSESSED with instructions..." So a piece of metal isn't considered a firearm, but adding a piece of paper to it makes it a firearm? I am speechless...

And? What is wrong with being able to manufacture your own weapon? The concern is getting weapons out of the hands of gang bangers and others unauthorized to have them, and keeping criminals behind bars once they are caught breaking laws. Those of us that follow the law and don't commit felonies should be allowed to not only own and make their own weapons, but carry them as well.
I totally get it! If only law abiding citizens had firearms, "gun control" would never be a topic of discussion. My only point was that I understand concerns about companies selling complete kits to anyone (including gang bangers) that can be assembled into a firearm in minutes by anyone. For all intents and purposes, those kits are not much different than purchasing an actual firearm.
Don't get me wrong - I would love nothing more to be able to purchase/build/manufacture whatever I want whenever I want! (especially when it comes to suppressors)

Yeah, gas is horrible and only getting worse! I heard on the local news yesterday morning that they are expecting $6/gallon by August!!

900 yards with my 338 Lapua Mag. But that was back in Colorado. Here in TN, 400 yards is the furthest I've found to shoot.

While I am not a supporter of gun control, after doing a Poly80 Glock, I understand the concern with them. It took me around 10 minutes to make a functioning handgun. No machine skills needed, no special tools, nothing. Just drill a couple holes and cut off some plastic tabs with a knife . It took more time to put in the trigger than to "manufacture" the frame!
I've also milled out billet AR lowers, and they are a completely different beast! With those, you are truly "manufacturing" your own firearm.

I could be wrong, but I thought quite a few Kel-Tec firearms use Glock mags.
But if you have too many Glock mags, you could send some my way!

Wow, that looks pretty cool! Do you plan on painting the optic?

Do you ever head out East? (Cookeville/Crossville area)

The grip angle of Glocks is one of the reason I sold all my other handguns and replaced them with their Glock counterpart. (it all started back when Glock was the only manufacture selling compact and full size 10mm handguns) Shooting exclusively with Glocks, my natural point of aim is dead on with them. But if I ever pick up another handgun, I'm way off!

I too had the Glock 29. I love the 10mm round, and still have a few Glock 20s and a Glock 40. But the Glock 29 was just too small to fire full powered rounds comfortably. I sold it and got another Glock 20.

My wife has a Glock 19 that she occasionally shoots. Her only issue is the grip is a little too wide for how small her hands are. Yesterday I let her hold and fire my Glock 43. While she loved the narrower grip of the single stack vs double stack 9mm, the short barrel and lighter slide creates a snappier kick. (which she did not like) Not to mention if she ever needed to use it in a self defense situation, the shorter sight radius and 6-round magazine could be a disadvantage.
I think the new G48 might be the best of both worlds for her - longer sight radius and barrel, heavier slide, and a 10 round magazine. It just might be the perfect combination of the G19 and G43. However, she doesn't want me buying one for her until she can shoot a few rounds through it along side her G19 to make sure it is exactly what she wants.
Does anyone around the Crossville area have a G48 that she test fire? We do go to Nashville and/or Knoxville every now and then too, so that could be a possibility.
Glock grip angle sucks!

So.... what are you doing with all your old Glocks? I know a good home they could go to!
