Well actually my first was a 27 but I sold it quickly

But bought this from buds

Police trade in 22c. Only thing I changed was the ghost connector and wolf competition springs and truglo tfo sights

You are making it hard to resist!

There was hardly any wear other than normal barrel wear

One thing I always do when I get a used Glock since I have no clue of mileage I replace the guide rod/spring and firing pin spring.  It also looks like you could get a fresh slide stop or extended one if you like.  Another thing look at the extractor and extractor spring/plunger for excessive wear incase it needs replacement

Nice score.

Guide rod is inbound as well as slide lock

The other springs you mentioned were replaced with wolf competition (firing pin, safety block and trigger bar spring )

Beware it is possible to find heavier primers that the lighter comp firing pin spring will not strike hard enough and just dents it.  I had this happen to me at the range and ended up with a round not getting set off with a dented primer.  That is the only spring I always leave stock weight.

I'll keep this in mind. I still have the stock spring  put 300 rounds so far without issues

My first Glock was a 22....haven't stopped buying since

Keep in mind in 40 s&W the round is designed around a magnum small pistol primer. This is why often 9mm run fine with the aftermarket stuff in them while 40's sometimes do not.

The porting won't foul up that front sight will it? Seems like the insert would get crusty.

45ACP they get dirty but it takes a lot of ammo to darken the sights with 9/40 with different types of powder.

I was worried about this as well so if it does the trijicon will go back on

Found out a few more things about this glock

The magazine release is an extended release and the trigger is also a smooth faced trigger.

I did get a new slide lock installed as well as a stainless steel guide rod.

The guide rod is actually not needed it is just there to aid in getting the pistol field stripped without having spring shoot everywhere.  I run the stock plastic ones on all my pistol as of now and have two SS ones in a box that never get used.  The plastic ones are to cheap to use anything else.

For the first hundred or so rounds expect possibility of malfunctions with the SS rod sometimes they are a bit rough and need worn in and adding lube to the rod helps.

Shot another 300 rounds in it without any issues.  Loving this gun
