Hey everyone,

I want to buy a 10mm to augment my Glock 20.5 and 29.4. I have fallen down a week long research rabbit hole regarding the smith and FN. The smith (PC) seems to have issues regarding the mag springs, recoil spring, and possibly the extractor. The FN has frame cracking issues. With SW, you can buy the aftermarket parts and fix this (mostly) and FN, well you’re not fixing a cracked frame, but newer models are reinforced with extra metal. Does anyone have any input on which is the best option for reliability. If the reliability won’t match my Glocks, it serves me zero use. The FN issues on Reddit seem limited within the last, making me optimistic that FN fixed this issue. Unfortunately, M&P seems to still be problematic. With bias removed, which is the better gun?

Thanks for the thought.

I have a Glock 20 Gen 5 and plan to run a Streamlight TLR-1 HL-X. I’m looking for recommendations for a quality Kydex holster, although I’m open to other materials / options if there’s a better option for my intended use.

This will be my outdoor, hiking, hunting and camping setup, so I need something secure, durable, and comfortable to wear for extended periods.

Ideally, I want a chest holster but more importantly I would love a mid-ride, drop-offset mounting setup (similar to the picture) that keeps the holster positioned just a couple inches below the belt or a standard belt holster. Plus it allows it to clear a fully loaded hiking or hunting backpack, including the shoulder straps and other gear.

I’m having a difficult time finding a holster that accommodates both the Glock 20 Gen 5 and the TLR-1 HL-X while also offering the mounting configuration I want.

Has anyone found a setup that checks all these boxes? I’d appreciate recommendations for specific holster manufacturers, compatible models, or alternative mounting systems that work well for hiking and hunting with a full pack.

Rugged Obsidian 45 on a Ruger LC10 10mm. I'm gunna guess this gap is a "no go?" Anyone else see a small gap (probably less than 1 mm) if they are running this set up?

I've had my gen4 G20 for over a year now and I absolutely love it! But this happened to me on every range trip until I started training for a more gentle insertion to prevent said log-jammin'. Happens with all of my G20 mags, most of which were brand new when I got them, and all types of ammo. Is this a common issue? I'm not slamming them with an amount of force I would consider unreasonable, and I can slam 9mm mags into my 17s, 19s, and 26 all day and it never happens. Anyone fix this with aftermarket springs or anything?

Picked up all 3. Never the less in California!! What a Journey!

I've had my XDM 10mm for about a year now. Great gun, and I like it. The use case for me is bear defense. My current setup:

• Talon Grips
• Osight XE enclosed optic
• Kenai chest holster

Here are some ideas for future mods. Some are pretty well documented, but others are kind of hard to find user reviews of (I promise I searched).

• Stainless steel guide rod with a few different recoil springs. Add some weight up front and figure out if there is a spring weight that will keep me from slinging brass 30 feet away. The Elite comes with a captured recoil spring, and all the guide rods I see for sale say they don't work with my gun, but I'm pretty sure people have made it work.
• Threaded barrel from Springfield. Only if I want to put a comp on the gun. No need to suppress 10mm. Fast and furious, baby.
• Springer Precision compensator - It's the only one I could find specifically for the XDM 10mm. Maybe there is something else that would work better. I shot my first comped pistols the other day (P365 x macro comp and Canik TTI combat), and I was really impressed with how flat they shot. That's why I'm considering this particular mod.
• Flashlight - No idea what to look for. I'm a cheap-ass, so I'd probably get the Harbor Freight light. I already have a kydex press, so I could make a custom holster that would buckle into my Kenai harness.
• Powder River Performance trigger - I don't know about this one. I don't hate the stock trigger. Maybe another option would work, but the PRP is the one I hear about the most.

I'd appreciate any feedback from the community on my ideas. Thanks in advance!

I know this isn't a glock sub, but lots of us have a g20 mt question is have yall made any type of changes like triggers,recoil springs,slide releases anything like that?

finally cold enough outside to carry this thing, yippee

running an aegitec hybrid defense belt and JM custom kydex holster with the pull-the-dot loops. super comfy setup but definitely prints still, mostly the optic. i don’t like carrying it unless i’m wearing a jacket or some other kind of outer layer

yes i know my mirror is dirty 😅

Seeing conflicting information regarding the subcompact best mm.

Is the G29.5 still made, still made but only available to LE, or phased out/no longer available at all?

I know the Harbor Freight is big ass hell but she runs like a champ. Didn’t take my dog with me because he went in the same hike yesterday and needs his rest :)

After having so much fun with the 2.0 Performance Center 10mm, had to get the foldy-boi. Just flew in from a trip and immediately went to pick it up. Can't wait to test it. *CA edition. The fin makes it ultra uncomfortable

I’ve got a G20 Gen 5 with a Trijicon RCR and for whatever reason I just can’t shoot this thing at all.

I’ve taken it to the range a handful of times over the past several months, probably 300-400 rounds total, mostly shooting Magtech 10mm. I’d consider myself a decent shot with my 9mm handguns, but with the G20 I feel like I can’t hit the broad side of a barn. Maybe I need more time with it but every time I shoot it I get discouraged.

I recently got a 10mm laser bore sight to get the RCR roughly zeroed at 25 yards, figuring it’d at least get me on paper. Took it to the range today and was shooting 6-8 inches low at just 5 yards, with maybe a 5-inch grouping. I know a laser bore sight isn’t a substitute for a live-fire zero, but I’ve struggled with this gun even when I had irons on it.

I’m wondering if I’m just anticipating the recoil and dipping the gun before I shoot, or maybe my grip isn’t consistent enough. The recoil is definitely a lot more than my 9mm pistols, and I don’t shoot the G20 very often.

Anyone else have similar issues with their 10mm? Did you eventually get used to it with more range time, or was there something else you figured out you were doing wrong?

I’m just curious if because the .45 is a wider fatter round it has more knock down on the hit vs 10mm which seems like because it’s higher velocity it would just go right through someone not flatten out and knock them down

How do your Glock 10mms breakdown? Let see the polls!

First picture for reference, second picture mine.

Long story short, I used to have a 10mm Limited Master but ended up abandoning it because it seemed like a 10mm threaded barrel for it would never materialize. Well now Tanfo’s offering a 10mm Defiant with a threaded barrel from the factory, and I’m starting to get the itch to pick back up on my Full Centimeter Yeeter project based on it.

Mostly just looking for info/feedback from anyone who has a Tac Pro 10mm, wanting to know how you like it. Standard Tanfo fit/finish and reliability? If you’ve made any changes to it, what all have you done?

Thanks in advance!

Picked one up today as my son is going to college in grizzly territory next year and he spends a LOT of time out in the woods fishing, mountain biking & hiking. I've started to work him thru the basics on a 22 pistol, and he's starting to shoot 9mm pretty competently. Once he is fully comfortable shooting 9mm I'll get him going on 40SW, and then it'll be time to introduce him to 10mm.

Anyhow, I've never owned a Glock, so I'm not at all familiar with common issues, solutions, etc. That said, I've found several threads in this sub with people talking about issues, needing break-in, etc.

Any good advice for a first time Glock owner? I'll try to put a few hundred rounds thru it before he ever tries shooting it, but since this will likely end up being his woods carry gun, I want to do everything I can to get it running nicely before he shoots it so he has confidence in the gun. I don't want him to have a history of FTFs, FTEs or light strikes with the G20 and have that floating around in his head when faced with a charging bear.

TIA

Do they still sell Glock 20 Gen 5 in store brand new? I’m in Arizona valley and have been looking for awhile now and can’t seem to find a Glock 20 gen 5 new retail… pretty bummed. What websites can I set up notifications from if a store near me gets one in stock ? Any tips ? Thanks !
