I'm looking to get a G21SF and have read that there a few different configurations.
Do they make one that is the same as the regular G21 with glock rail but with the SF upgrade ?
I don't care for the picatinny rail or the ambi mag release.

I have to admit I picked out a Glock 21SF without paying much attention to the rail.  When I purchase mine I didn't notice the ambi model had a different rail system.  From what I understand Glock no longer produces it though.  As long as you pick up a Glock 21SF with the standard magazine release you should be good to go.

I believe Glock only makes one version of the SF now.

The M1913 rail/ambi catch version has been long since discontinued. The SF now is only avaliable with the Glock rail/standard catch.



ETA:Also in a limited run RTF2 option.

Is the generation 3 style frame still available  because I HATE the newer versions.
If not I guess I will have to find a NIB older version.

Ordered my Glock 21SF with standard mag release, standard rail, and night sights in February '08 from an LE dealer. I didn't take delivery until October '08, and it was worth the wait.

It is my understanding that this is the only model they're selling now.

The Gen 3 is the only one available right now with some special runs of the RTF2s.  Its been related to me that the 21SF Gen 4 should be out this summer.  There were too many problems with the ambidextrous magazine release and it's no longer made.  I often wonder how much testing R&D Glock did on the ambidextrous magazine release before they released it?  I've worked with a few 21's that had the ambidextrous magazine release that had no problems.  However, I saw and worked with many more that were a disaster.  Mine included!  I was happy to get rid of that gun!

I am ok with my Glock 21SF with the ambi mag release.  It works good enough but you have to crush the mag release to get the mag to pop out.
