    Finally picked up my Glock 26 Gen4 after a very long 5 days!! I have been all over this site as well as other waiting to pick this up! First thing I did was purchase the Pearce Grip Extension for a little more comfort. I have found the painted letters thread so Im thinking of doing that this week also. Any other ideas for a first time hand gun/glock owner? Im thinking of some night sights also! I will be using this concealed once I get my license in the mail!!!

    Welcome!! The Glock 26 is one of my favorite guns, it is always a painful decision to carry that or the 19.

    Greetings from Tampa Bay. The G26 is a great choice for a CCW. Mine is a Gen 2.5 I use for EDC with Meprolight Tru Dot night sights, Jentra grip plug and extended slide stop lever.

    You know I have to check out Shoot Straight one of these days. I used to frequent Delray Shooting Center in Delray Beach, Arizona shooting range by Lauderdale Lakes & also National Armory in Pompano Beach. There's also Palm Beach Shooting Center in Lake Worth couple miles south of you, but I'm yet to try them out too

    I say "used to" for most of the above because I discovered Markham Park Target Range a few months ago and have become a frequent there. All open air, 60 something odd lanes, cool breezes & 100 yard rifle/pistol etc.

    I just checked out Markham Park, it looks pretty awesome. Just a little far from me but it could be worth the drive!!

    I'm in Ft. Lauderdale. I do a lot of MTB on Markham's trails, but never been to the range. I kind of like the auto target movement @ Bass Pro in Dania & the ability to double tap or rapid fire at Bill Boyd's in downtown Laudy. Is Markham worth it? Do I have to walk out to place target? Seems very strict, given the rules I've read online. Perhaps I'll try it tomorrow.

    I painted my letters today. Bright yellow. Nail polish & Non-acetone remover. Very easy. Did three coats on slide & 5 magazines during Game 7 NYRanger hockey win. So 3.5 hours for all. Turned out amazing. If I can figure out how to post a picture, I will ASAP.
