This set up was a long time in coming. I've been working on this PF45 for over a year and keep having light strike issues. I swapped the frame and slide internals out to Glock OEM parts, and eventually got a Hooper Gun Works Titan slide which cleared up my issues. She runs like a champ now and is ready for carry. The pistol is an OD Green PF45 in .45 ACP, using OEM mags with … [Read more...] about I Love it When a Build Comes Together

Off-Duty Carry: Glock 43X With Shield 15-Round Magazine
