Holding a Glock

Why don't you take a picture of your hand holding the Glock,

just the way you grip it when shooting...then we should be able to

give you an opinion.

 

I took my G27 shooting today and drew blood from my pinky. I'm thinking of taping it next time.

 

@ODGreen:

Do you have standard magazines or have you installed any manner of magazine extension?

The Pearce and Scherer grip extensions do help somewhat in recontouring the end of the grip on the baby Glocks. May be worth looking into?

 

This is a really good video on how to hold a hand gun the proper way. I use this method every time I shoot:

On the pinky??? That's a first.

 

I love you guys! Glock Forum FTW!!

 

Yesterday was the first time I shot the 27. It came with 3 stock mags and my husband bought me 2 pinky extensions mags made by Glock. When I shot it the first time, I used the pinky extender mag. First mag: pinched the skin. Second mag switched to stock mag and this time drew blood.

I looked at the Pearce solutions and they are inexpensive fixes! $6.00-$9.00. Thank you for the advice.

 

Thank you!!!

 

You can also get them off of eBay, too.

Also, you can try the 15-round G22 magazines with a grip extender, be wary of Gen3/Gen4 compatiblity though.

I carry the 9mm G26 (stock mags = 10 rounds), at first I put the Pearce +2 extensions, but now I am sold on using 17-round G17 mags in her with X-Grip extensions. See the evolution of my plan here: https://www.glockforum.com/forum/f11/opinions-extended-mag-adapters-1003/

Sorry about your owie.

Cheers!

 

Great video!

 

Great video. Thank you.

 

My first Glock was a 27, I didn't have it long. Get a compact or full size.

 

Oh wow...... what would make that happen??

 

I was holding too much on the trigger too and didn't know it. Ive always held the same and have been descent at grouping. When I took my ccw class the instructor showed me what I was doing wrong. I tried using enough of my finger to engage the trigger safety and my grouping was much tighter! ( I also 'had' a slight thumb twitch I was unaware about that was causing me to pull right at times)

 

I am going to try the directions in the video as well. That little boo boo may not look like much but it hurt awful and soured my mood for the rest of the range day. I will be VICTORIOUS!!

 

That's good to know! I'm glad I'm just not being a girl about it.
