First Glock, model 26. I'm still not a fan of the trigger, but I couldnt argue with an indestructible 100% reliable compact 9mm anymore. Hope to his the range this weekend weather permitting.

For CCW, I suggest a Comp-tac Ctac holster. It is the holster on my list for CCW for my G19. Awesome holster from what I've heard. |
Lots of good holsters out there for the 26. I see a G19 in your future.
+1 I used to carry a Ruger until I was pulled to the dark side. Now, noth'in but Glocks for me an mine.

+2 I used to trust nothing but Ruger and hated Glocks. Picked up my G19 awhile ago and I have been forever in love with Glock. The only reason that I still have my P89 is A) It has never failed me and B) It was my first handgun and will be passed to my children. |
i've been out here since the end of feb. I'm at Laughlin in Del Rio doing the pilot training thing, and start flying the T-6 in a bit over a week. I'm just like you- I love my 1911 (Springfield Mil Spec) and I don't think any Glock could ever replace it in the position of favor, BUT you can't argue with the practicality of a relatively small, relatively light 9mm handgun that carries 10 rds and is nearly indestructible. I think I'm going to get a CQC for the holster for it. I prefer OWB (my waistline has grown since i purchased most of my clothes) and I like the draw from OWB better as well. |

There are few holsters better than the SParks Versamax 2. That being said, you can have immediate gratification at half the price by getting a Sidearmor IWB, a Comptac Infidel, or a Crossbreed (really cheap, ugly as hell, but a great IWB holster). Goddamn flyboys...you gotta spoon feed them everything. |

Changing the trigger spring on glocks is relatively easy. I have found that the heavier 8 pound trigger spring provides a way better trigger pull. The factory 5-lb spring is the weakest point of a stock glock anyway. It is thin, and neglect will destroy this part first. It is also entirely different in it design. The 8 lb mod looks like this:  where the standard looks like this:  They are installed and function in a different manner than each other. One functions on compression(the 8 lb-er) and the other by resistance. The compression provides a better feel than the standard. |
