I was wanting to know what everybody would think about using a Glock as a PDW.
The setup for me at least would be the following
10mm Glock G20 or a Glock in .357 sig
Fobus collapsable or IGB tactical stock with vert grip or surefire light
2 MOA reddot or just regular sights
Advantage Arms .22 cal coversion

Now I know alot of guys are probably thinking WTF?But in my opinion this would appear to be the most versitile with out spending thousands of dollars(which seems to be the trend now a days) on a PDW that shoots some kind of oddball caliber.
Like to know what you think.
Thanks

If you can get SBRs in CT, why not just get a short AR? I would rather have a 7.5" AR than any handgun with a stock attached.

Learn to shoot your handgun better.  Stock in unnecessary.  Choose a more standard caliber.

On second thought, don't worry what we think.  Do what works best for you and your shooting capability.

Mr. Jack has it right with shorty AR.

While the idea might not be a bad one, you're still going to have a ton of money tied up into it, with the tax stamp(s) for the collapsible stock and vertical foregrip.

Like others have suggested, you may just be better off with a SBR'd AR15.

Just SBR an AR and put a 7.5" upper on it.

The tax stamp to SBR the Glock is the same as the tax stamp you reccomend to SBR the AR15 so that cost does not count.

Kind of hard to holster the AR15 when needed, the Glock with stock will still fit the fobus holster on your hip.

Thanks for all of the replies.I have looked at a SBR AR-15 and the cost is as  much if not more.
A SBR upper alone without the tax stamp is usually around $500.00-$600.00 and then you go from there tax stamp and a lower.

Oh bye the way I'm not interested in the stock to improve my pistol shooting ability,(which is not shabby) I wanted to make the Glock more versitile and make the larger calibers easier to shoot for different folks.
Thanks

As mentioned, I would just run it as a pistol and work on marksmanship. With practice, you can hit a man sized target at 100yards with ease.

No offense, but I fail to see much point adding a stock to a glock...

Adding a stock to a handgun seems to defeat the purpose of a HANDgun...

That would make for one hell of a loud .22 mag.

I dunno if I would compare a 77gr bullet at 2150 fps to a .22 magnum....

get a cheekweld on the buffer tube and it shoots pretty much like a rifle.

$500 for my build  YMMV

no point in turning a pistol into a rifle and a rifle into a pistol...if you got a glock 10mm, it'll reach 100yrds easily-like w/ anything, practice is key
