For those with recessed borders on their stippled frames, do you feel the recessed borders? I am considering having Danger Close do the work, but the recessed borders looks quite prominent.

You do but you don't. As for borders, DCA is the go to if you want the recessed, separated border. SSVI and several others use hard cut borders. This gets the stippling flush with the frame but doesn't leave the distinctive separated border. |

Finally went to the dark side and got an aftermarket trigger for my 19 MOS. Before I was running a Gen 3 17 smooth-faced trigger. I honestly feel like the take-up and reset are pretty close. I will admit the flat face feels a lot better to me. I did install a Glock "-" connector along with a 4# striker spring. It lightened the pull up a bit but I am still going to polish the trigger bar on the TAC. All in all I'm pleased with my purchase of the Overwatch Precision TAC trigger. If anything the flat face shoe is tits.

Is that DSG mag extension made by Taran Tactical? the one with the pin in the rear? and is that a ZEV magwell? Just wondering, b/c I was thinking of getting some mag extensions and my brother says his taran tactical's won't work with his magwell b/c the pin presses against the magwell. |

Yes those are taran +6 extensions and they do have the pin in the back that keeps them from coming off the magazine body.
The magwell is made by steel city arsenal and decided it over a zev cause it was somewhat the same style design, well made, comes in 3 colors, and only $70 shipped vs almost $100 for zev. I don't know about the zev but this magwell has a cutout that the pin fits into so it does not interfere with he magazine extension. |

I'll look when I get home. I'll take a picture with a stock glock mag in it so the clearance can be seen. I don't have a Vickers base but will put a picture up anyways. My inclination would be they won't work with the SCA magwell ether. |

My g19 mos I got off the EE
I just added RMR Kind wish I noticed the trigger guard was rounded. I LOVE how stock trigger guards look. Oh well I guess I'm stuck with it 
May have to add a Magwell since it had one and looks like something is missing. Gun has a weird guide rod that is spiraled and looks like stainless with rust  . May put an original in it
Other than that like it  Attached File |

Had fun doing it, but not sure I like it. Probably won't do another. The mag extension started life as a Pearce +2.

Wanna smooth out the finger groove , front area , all gen3 models. Do you guys demel or melt/heat the area down. I don't wanna thin out the area & compromise the frame so I wanted to ask the hive.

no, no melting. You need to grind, Dremel, sand the grooves off. Plenty of material there. Thousands of them have been done. I prefer the flap wheel for my Dremel for the easiest takedown I've found.

Thanks , Pep I also did a heat-gun grip reduction on the back strap (Gen 3 19). Having done both sand/grind and heat I would say any time there is enough material to go the sanding route. Much better control over the process. Heat gun made me nervous -- didn't mess anything up, but just didn't like that process. Pics to come soon. |
