New Toy, Glock 26 OD

[Tim-g19]

I just got a new toy, nothing special about it yet other than its mine.
Night sights are coming. But what ammo are others using?

I carry 135gr federals in my current Glock. I know these would give up to much velocity out of the 26 barrel.

I see people saying they carry ammo under 100gr, I don't like that idea.
would 124gr +p or +p+ be good out of the short barrel?
or are most people using the 115gr ammo in these in a high pressure loading?
shot plenty of +p stuff but never +p+ is there much difference?

anyone know of a place that sell federal HST to public?
they look so good in gelletin and water.
heres an amateur testing g26 and ammo w/good pics.

I always carried 115 gr hp's standard pressure in mine and felt very happy. I did try REM 124gr +P's and was happy with those although you do get more blast from them.

Welcome to Ammunition To Go! has HSTs for a good price.

Let me know what rounds you settle on, as I am looking into a G26 as well.

I like the Speer Gold Dot 124gr+p in my 9mm, but have been looking at the HST line also. I like the expansion I've seen in tests on the HST.

Oh and you can't make this post without pictures of the G26!!

Is 147gr too much for the g26? All of my extra mags are loaded with 147gr, and I wouldn't want to have to have dedicated g19 and g26 mags or go through the hassle of changing out ammo to carry one or the other.

Here is a test I just found.

It basically shows the same performance from the 147gr HST in a g17 as it has in a g26.

I decided on Federal 124gr +p HST for my 19 and 26.
My Federal ammo catalog didnt have HST's in it. But heres a link with a campare feature.

and as soon as I get extended slide release on it Ill post some pics.


Out of the Non + round count finger extensions what are you all using?
Right now I think im set on factory mag in and 2 g19 mags as my carry set up.
