Glock questions

[jbrooks19]

Just bought a Glock 19 Gen 2 today, love the gun!

I was wondering if anyone knows if i send it to glock if they can put gen 3 or gen 4 grips on it?

I want the tactical rail pretty bad.. Thanks guys!

Pm me!

I would think you could easily find someone to trade you a 3 or 4 straight across for it... The gen 2 19 is very popular because of the lack of finger grooves.

Just put it in the wanted section, and you'll probably find someone to swap you.

Why dont people like the finger grooves? I would like them.

They don't fit everyone's hand, and many people just don't like them.

Trade or sell it and get what you want. I love the Gen2 19's and 23's.

Like they said, you might find someone to swap you, but to answer your other question, YES glock will replace it for a fee. You can only get Gen 3, as the Gen 4 is designed differently and your slide will not work properly (I am about 60% sure on that). (not exactly sure how much, but to get a replacement Gen 3 full size frame is $150)

Yeah just swap someone who hates the finger grooves. (I sure did!)

You could probably find someone fairly easily to get gen 3 or gen 4 grips off of. A lot of people dislike them (I for one)!

I'd say it woul dbe way easier/cheaper to just swap guns with somebody. I wouldn't mind having a Gen 2 myself, I love my Gen 3 but my hands are fairly big and the lack of finger groves might feel nicer. Both my Glocks have the rail but I don't use it.

AFAIK, Glock Inc. will still do a Gen2 to Gen3 frame swap, but it would run you like $150 - you can usually trade or sell privately and come out better. A similar program is NOT available for Gen4.

The Glock 19 Generation 2 is highly sought after between members of GlockTalk.com If you have the money Glock will update the frame.

What they said, my mits prefer the 2nd gen, all things equal, try WTT in our handguns for sale forum and make two people happy.

i would rather have the finger grooves..fits perfectly and looks better to me ...the rail is a bonus that i havent taken advantage of yet but will in the near future

I agree with the others. Just trade it and make 2 people happy. I for 1 really like the Gen 2 without finger grooves. Finger grooves are too narrow for me. If I had a Gen 3 I would swap you.

I agree....finger grooves are good, and help with any slippage.
I'm still deciding on a mount for a scope to take the rail....or a light...actually the mount uses the rail, but then supplies a rail under it, so i could do both....yea....both......hm

Ya i emailed Glock and they said for 150 they would put a gen 3 frame on it

For $0 you could just swap someone theirs.

Heck, if I still had my Glock I would've given you $20 and my frame.
