Posted: 5/20/2008 8:46:18 AM EDT

First of all I wanna know if anyone carries a 33round mag in their pocket for a spare?

Second I would like to know if they make a Laser Guide Rod for the 26,if so,what name brand is good.

I had a 31 round Glock mag for my Glock 26. I carried it in my lunch box to and from work. I normally carry a Glock 17 mag in my pocket. A 31 round mag is too long to carry in your pocket.

I have a LaserMax in my Glock 26 and love it.

How much dose a Laser Max run? And is it better then Crimson Trace Grips?

Looks like it works but how comfortable is it for driving,ect...

I plan to carry my standard 10round mag in the gun,I just want the 33rd G18 mag to carry in my left pocket for back up.

Im gonna get 2 G18 mag,One for my car and one for my pocket.

I don't carry the glock 18 magazine. I use my 10rds or a 15rd if I'm wanting more.

I use the 10 round + 2 in the weapon = 13 readily at hand plus the 17 rounds of back-up ammo.

The +2 extension isn't that much longer and gives a place for your little finger along with the extra 2 rounds.

I carry the standard 10 round mag in my G26 with a Concealable Control floorplate and I carry one or two G17 mags as spares. I've got a G18 mag, but carrying it as a spare strikes me as a bit absurd.

I've had the CT grips, they work great unless you're a lefty, then they rip the big knuckle of your thumb up. Also, if you've got small hands you might not like the extra bulk they add to the grip.

Laser-Max for the laser IMO. The CT beam CAN be obscured - although I'll admit unlikely with the Glock one. The CT on the J-Frame is often blocked when I keep my finger outside the trigger guard. Plus the LM adds nothing to the profile of the gun.

G18 spare? I keep one in my " battle bag" ready to go. I normally carry 1 or 2 G19 mags.

The G26 is a great CCW IMHO.

I found the gun to be less reliable with the G18 mags I have. I keep a G17 mag in the car.

[#10]

no--imo, the 33rnders are unrealistic for CCW spare mag--you are better off imo carrying 2 extra G17 mags (less reliance on one working mag, easier to conceal, etc)

yes, but i would nto opt for alster guide rod; i'd rather have the CT grips

Heck no on a 33 rounder.

Crimson Trace laser grips.

I like the +2, 12 rd mags.

[#13]

I have seen the +2 mag extensions fail.
I would not use a Lasermax guide rod OR a CT grip.

If you're going to use the +2 extensions, just get a G19.

Have thought of the G18 mags but havent yet. I have a G19 mag with a slip over deely thing for the finger rest. Carry 2 10rd. mags in pocket or mag holster.

No help on the Laser

why?

[#16]

I use my G18 mags at the range for my G19, G26, and KelTec Sub2000. 5-33rd, 6-15rd, 4-10rd. (plus chambers =298rds w/o reloading)
