$250 for your trigger fix. I'm maybe $25 into the 20 Longslide trigger fix and it is quite nice. No more crack-grit-crunch feel.
what Glock should REALLY bring out instead of a 9 mm G42

Other than being plastic, there's nothing wrong with the stock Glock sights.
Thousands upon thousands carry them every day.

If Glock were watching, I would hope they'd realize a 7.62x25 would sell out. I'd buy several. Just lengthen the original G-17 format. C'mon, Glock...be a pal.

Ten years ago I would have agreed.
But unless someone imports another kabillion rounds of cheap milsurp ammunition it aint gonna happen
Now it would sit in the case just like a .45GAP Glock does.

I always thought the stock sights were there just fill the slots until you could get some proper ones.
As far as the OP. If I could have one thing it would be to get the Gen4 treatment on the G36.
I love my G36 but it gets a little slippery sometimes in the sunny summertime.

"what Glock should REALLY bring out...a polymer frame 1911...amiright" (?) [wtr100]
Wasn't too long ago most said Ruger would never build a 1911. Well.
Well there is nothing to stop them, the technology is here, just a question of changing company mission philosophy, (just in time for the military replacement of the current sidearm) and reaping the profits.
A 25 ounce 1911 with a slightly smaller grip (for all hands) due to the 45GAP cartridge.

IIRC there's a 22 TCM conversion barrel in the works. Should have similar ballistics to the 5.7

The OP says: Quote; "what Glock should REALLY bring out instead of a 9 mm G42"
#1. The G-42 is a .380, not a 9mm
#2. To Glock, manufacturing hand guns is a "business", NOT a "hobby"
#3. Most businesses are "in business" to make a profit, for which most of the successful businesses have a "business model";
#4. I think Glock's business model is to produce a very reliable weapon in a caliber that will "appeal" to as many folks as possible, the better to sell as many "copies" as possible.
#5. How long has Glock been "in business"? 35 years, (give or take? )
#6. Glock recently produced and sold their 10,000,000 (that's 10 million pistols)
It would seem to me that Glock must be doing quite a few things "right"?
#7. Glock needs to change it's "grip angle"; have you ever watched that fellow who is the Captain of Glock's competition team shoot with his G-17L? Apparently the "grip angle" on his Glock is "just right"!!!
#8. Are you a Colt fan? Would you like to invest your $$$ in Colt shares? (They've been around a little longer than Glock, but it sure looks like Glock may "be around" longer than Colt! )
#9. I can't think of anyone who has sold more pisols in less time, (and no doubt made more $$$ than Glock has.........can you?
#10. Speaking of "grip angles"........have you fired a new Taurus "Curve" yet?
(would you even WANT TO? )
I guess all of the above adds up to, "different strokes for different folks" or else "you can please some of the folks "some" the time, you can please all of the people "now & then", but you can't please All of the folks ALL of the time.
(and my sincere apology to any new Curve owners.....(I just couldn't help myself! )

I am still waiting for them to come out with there Patrol Carbine they said would be out in 89 or so.
Seriously though, I would love to see them come out with some sort of carbine that worked with the standard pistol mags. I would buy a 10mm one in a heart beat.

A 1911 with a Glock 21 barrel, extractor, gen 4 mag release, and especially the magazine, would light the world on fire. We aren't ready for a pistol that good.
