Year end awards - the best thing I learned on Glock Talk

HGxyz · 01-01-2011, 14:43

For me, it was Simple Green to clean my Glocks. Cheap, effective, relatively non toxic. The first few times I heard this mentioned, I dismissed it, but since I tried it, I use little else. Rinse with hot water.

I actually never tried that.

Hmm..interesting thread, lets see:

1) GAP floor plates on my G26 rock!
2) Glock was discontinuing the OD model. (So I helped myself to one)
3) The Gen 4 models have some new model problems. (That will no doubt be sorted out)
4) Most folks here are cool.

The two firing pin spacer sleeve removal tips are neat.

Don't believe anything you read unless you have personally verified its truth.

(Hmmm, I'd better read THOSE again. I spent an hour the other night on my hands & knees looking for one I ricocheted off the ceiling twice.)

ALSO: SQUEEEEZE, DON'T JERK!!

PRESS the trigger straight back. Not a squeezing motion.

Man, that really is handy. I was doing a good bit of fumbling earlier with my AA kit, wish I would have seen this sooner.

I think DannyR and Butch have offices at Glock.

**DannyR** · 01-01-2011, 16:46

I wish I did, but my wife does not like Georgia--she lived there many years ago--and we are very happy in SW Virginia.

My vote is for Ed's Public Safety of GA. Ed and Don continue to provide GSSF members and Certified Glock Armorers the best prices and service in the USA. Don and Ed also attend many GSSF matches, displaying their great merchandise and greater prices. I'll see them next at Morganton, NC on April 16.

Well, I have been know to post at 2 or 3 a.m., but that's just when I'm wired. I usually don't post after midnite.

I learned this year that I missed all of my glocks that I sold some yrs ago and really like my new g4 19. I will soon purchase a g4 23.

That Glock does not stand behind its product, or take care ot its customers.

Heresy...you must be kidding.

MattC really likes HK instead of Glock.

Don't try my own grip reduction.

GAP floor plates are the bomb.

Best thing...all of the good people on GT.

Happy New Year everyone!

This plus DannyR helping me with life and my glock's. And the friends i talk to on PM. Plus my buddy's Canyon Man,Sonny, Roger, The _Punisher and AK's longslide's are great fun projects. Butch's Blog and the time most will help anyone whom ask for it very quickly. The vast majority of member's are knowledgable and helpful and we ignore the rude arrogant one's.

Glock's are very addictive. Hopefully docs bad experience with glock is a isolated one. Plus the GT Glocker from GA Melissa.

Plus bac is willing to help and post very nice pics. He has good taste. Has a stellar collection without arrogance which is very rare, thanks bac,

1. LOADING PLUS 1 - Load bullet in mag; insert mag; rack one in chamber; remove mag; load another bullet; reinsert. Didn't know that i could've chipped the extractor. Talking to a few other people, they didn't know either.

2. Glock barrel conversions - too many to list.

3. Good people with a wealth of knowledge. I would do research on this web page before buying ANY gun.

4. I don't know much.

LMAO... well they are far superior....

And I like glock too, the G30 anyways. The 29 is the same pistol, so I just might get a 10mm glock instead of an Hk 45 next.

Glock's Customer Service to my agency has been 100% satisfactory.

**AgentM79** · 01-01-2011, 17:33

I've learned how fortunate I am to own older Glock pistols..............

I'm following the Gen4 threads with great interest. The G30 threads, too.

Really? There is thousands and thousands and thousands of cops and others that would disagree.

Unsubscribe.

Knowing when you are bored with a thread that's been beat to death, becomes repetitive, or just goes into personal attacks between two posters.

1badmason · 01-01-2011, 19:28

For me, too much to list. I dont post a whole lot, but man I learned alot since joining GT. Also the people here are generally a LOT more friendly and helpful than some of the other sites I go to.
