I have a Glock 20 that I bought in 1991 when they first came out. It's probably been fired about 100 times using range rounds right after I got it, no problems that I recall. I used to hunt and shoot rifles and shotguns a lot when I was young, but I've lived in the city in SoCal since I've had the glock and don't care much for shooting at indoor ranges.
Recently met someone who owns property in rural area of North San Diego county and he offered to let me come shoot at his range. I bought some modern higher powered 10mm ammo, double tap 180 gr, Winchester Silver Tips, Swamp Fox 180 gr. In the process of looking for ammo, I started reading some of the gun forums and saw people talking about using stronger recoil springs with hotter loads. I notice that the later generation glocks come with a captive spring/guide. My gun came with a non captive spring, I'm not sure what weight it is.
I was wondering if I should get a stronger spring/guide before shooting this ammo. Also wondering what other changes have been made to the glocks over the years. Are there any important modifications that I should consider making on my 1991 Glock 20?
Finally, does anyone know of any public outdoor ranges for handguns and/or shotguns in North San Diego county or thereabouts. Now that I've started reading and thinking about guns again, I have the urge to do some shooting and I don't want to impose on my acquaintance every time.
