    Glock 48

    Picked up one about a month ago and like it. Had Truglo H3 sights put on it. It had a 7 to 7.5 pound trigger and the rough Glock trigger face. Well this is the first Glock I have decided to mod. I used fine wet/dry paper to smooth the trigger face and make the trigger safety lever even with the trigger when the trigger is pulled. I polished the metal internals with 500/1000/2000 grit polish compound and polishing wheell . The polishing dropped the trigger pull down about a pound due to removing some very rough edges. You will get rough edges on stamped metal. I then replaced the striker spring with a Ghost INC. 4.5 pound spring and the safety plunger spring with a Ghost INC. reduced power spring. This reduce the pull down to 4.5 pounds. This is the best and cheapest way to reduce the trigger pull. All this cost me $10.23 for the Ghost springs and has given me a good trigger and is much easier for me to shoot accurately. I have shot the pistol after each mod to see what improved and what needs more improvement. I have gotten to the point where I am very happy with this pistol for carry. I now have about 1,450 rounds thru it.

    Glock 48?

    Update to my Glock 48. Mine is the duo tone model. Did a polish on internals and smoothed the trigger surface down so it is not so rough feeling. Put in a reduced firing pin spring (4.5 pounds) and a reduced firing pin safety spring. Ended up with a very decent 4.5-5.0 trigger pull that is smooth and breaks good. I have been practicing a lot with the Glock and find it shoots better for me than any other Glock.
  3. I have used those type of shotguns pulling guard duty in the Army. Scary when looking at the end with hole in it!
  4. I could not pick it out of a striker fired pistol line up. Hope it is a good one.
  5. You go with the best you can, even if you did not design it!
  6. Howdy and Welcome tp TGO!!!
  7. I use plugs and muffs, no such thing as too much protection when around very loud noises. Peltor is the brand I use. As for glasses I use a pair with soft ear pieces and the seems to help. All I have.
  8. Howdy Tom and Welcome to TGO!!! I have no knowledge of the Bulldog but have owned a few revolvers, they be fun.

  10. The times aren't strange, the people are strange! Some folks need a full time keeper.
  11. As individuals and as a church do what you can but he must seek help before it will do him any good. Stay safe and alert.
  12. I have the Dou Tone G48 and it is not showing any wear from carry or cleaning. I believe the silver color is a better finish.
  13. Howdy and Welcome to Tennessee and TGO!!!
  14. Did you clean the firing pin and firing pin channel? Mine was dirty. If you fire 100 more rounds and still have the problem contact SIG.

  17. Nice, hope it gets you where you want to be on accuracy.
  18. I went ahead and traded a pistol in today on a Sig 365, just could not resist. Got a extra 15 round mag and a holster for it. This pistol is the only pocket style pistol I can handle comfortably. The Glock 48 is not really a pocket pistol in my mind, good feeling but bigger in the grip than the Sig.
  19. At least that one has some class!
  20. I do believe the Sig 365XL may be the better pistol for me. Been trying to find one to handle.

  22. Howdy and Welcome to Tennessee and TGO!!!
  23. Anyone seen or held a Sig 365XL? Suppose to be shipping. Same size as the Glock 48 basically but 15 +1. The Glock just seems to be the perfect size for me but it has the Glock trigger which I dislike. I just can not get use to the trigger. Tried a Sig 365 and the trigger is much nicer.
  24. Sister and BIL have built them a small home out that way. They love the area. Hope you get a good nights sleep soon.
  25. I finally picked up a Glock 48 for EDC. Nice pistol, feels and fits my hand well and carries very well but the trigger, even after some work, still sucks. I have tried a Sig 365 lately and found it is a good feeling pistol abet a tad on the small side in grip length. I may have made a mistake in picking the Glock over the Sig. Anyone else compare the 2 and what did you go with. Have a Nice Day!
