Just picked up a glock 36 I have several glocks and always been curious about this model. Read mixed reviews so I thought  would try it out first hand. It came in Mint condition with night sights and pierce grip extensions. First had experiences from the glock guys be great. What you carry yours in? I'm thinking a pj iwb for mine.  Love the feel might add some talons to it though. I found it very accurate an less felt recoil and controlability with follow up shots was great as compared to to the glock 27, hanks in advance

Had one, recoil is snappy, and the gun liked to twist in my hand during recoil due to the thin nature. Sold it for a Sig P220 Carry DAK, haven't looked back.

Same experience, it was a tack driver but I had to fight it to keep a grip on it during recoil.  I still have it I just rarely shoot it.

I have one I carry daily. I had a grip reduction done on it and it now fits my hand like a glove. With the reduction and the improved fit the recoil is very manageable.  Reliability has been great.

I carry one daily as well with a spare mag. It is a good little carry gun, however, i have found myself carrying my 19 more and more these days as the size is so similar.

I bought it off of Gunbroker cheap with a very crappy home reduction done on it. It showed that it would work for me and I sent it off to be done properly.

Have one and love it. I carry it in a JM Custom Kydex AIWB or a SIK Kydex IWB. SIK can be found on Instagram or Facebook. I do not find the recoil an issue, I put Pierce +0 grips on. It is easy to CCW. I did have FTE issue's when I first got it, after some research I put a stainless steel recoil spring pack in and took care of the issue. Mine is very accurate at 25yds with stock sights, took a bit for me to become "use" to it, but I'm happy with it------sold my Shield to pick this 36 up.

I had one for about a year and I loved it, but I found that I shot a whole lot better with the G-26, so I swapped it for a nice G-26 with night sights a couple of weeks ago.....

South West Shooting Authority did a grip reduction on my G21 and they did an excellent job.  Looks like it came that way from Glock.

I had a 36 and put many rounds through it.  Only issues were with Winchester White Box ammo.   It didn't like it.   Other than that I would trust me life with it.    Sadly it burned up in a car fire.

I have one, like it.
So far I've put almost 300 rounds through it, mostly 230 gr. Ranger T and Hydra-Shok.
Recoil with Hydra-Shok is less than Ranger T.
MY 36 is used for Smartcarry or appendix IWB.

Carry a 36 daily. Previous was a 30 and switched to the 36 when it came out. I own a business and get to wear shorts and t-shirts everyday and the 36 made it that much more consealable. It also fit right into my Galco IWB holster for my 30. I am a large man with large hands and the first time I shot it, it bit me pretty good. Learned from that and never had a problem since. My bus is down the street from a indoor range so I get to shoot it a lot. Eats everything I give it.

Picked up a pj iwb kydex from a fellow on armslist. It was unused so I thought I would give it a try.  My shooting and carrying experiences with the pj are great. If you carry a glock 36 I would reccomend you give the pj a try. I added talon grips to the g36 also love those. I picked up 3 new glock 36 mags from online distributor an two of the three don't drop free empty.. Going to work them in the mag well some and also try  all the online home remedy suggestions on these two before I result in contacting glock.
