He had like a 45 minute video on it, which rocked cause I had lots of questions. I believe that was at least 11 years ago. I'm glad him and John lead (no pun intended) the Gun-Tubing movement!

    In my opinion Gen 4 is the most underrated generation. Because of generation 4, Glock became more accessible to people with smaller hands, lefties, and frame improvements were made so that a weapon mounted light didn't crack the frame. We wouldn't have gen 5 without gen 4. Also, regarding the trigger difference: Like any generation of glock, the glock gen 4 trigger will be kinda stiff initially. This is normal. 500 rounds and beyond, the trigger smooths out like glass and becomes light and crisp. Just break her in. Gen 4 ftw.

      Yep, and Glock was trying to use the same springs for the 40cal and 9mm. When people using the 9mm complained about jams, Glock claimed that it wasn't a problem because it never jams with duty ammo, only weak target loads. After lots of negative reviews Glock finally issued the new springs for the 19 and 17. New ejectors as well because of brass to the face issues.

    Stovepipe boy everyone hates on glocks now. Probably the ammunition. My Tula 135gr is very weak sauce.
