Best mods for Gen 4 Glock

[Goldoni]

Hey guys, just picked up my first Glock, a Glock 17 Gen 4. So far I'm planning on replacing the stock trigger connector with a Ghost 3.5lb. I'd also like to change out the plastic guide rod for something heavier to reduce muzzle flip. Any other suggestions on mods? Thanks in advance.

Been looking to find a nice g19 for myself and plan on trying some of these mods as well.

The gun is perfect stock. All that needs to be changed are the sights.

Do the trigger (I have a Ghost 3.5 in my 21SF and love it) but I refuse to believe that a heavier guide rod will have any appreciable impact on shooting feel.

Lightning strike titanium striker, new sights, and the 3.5 connector.

And tons of ammo.

Just ordered the guide rod adapter, and stainless guide rod for mine, allowing a standard Gen3 guide rod setup.

+1 on the sights and connector. After that, spend all your money on extra magazines, ammo, belt, holster, and mag holders. Forget about replacing the guide rod, just spend $6 to replace the stock one every 3 years or so.

The beauty of the Glock is that it really doesn't need any mods.

Get a helmet to wear for an upgrade so when all the brass hits you in the face you're protected.

What is the real world benefit of the titanium striker?

Save your money, keep it stock and buy ammo-that's all you need.

The only upgrade I will ever make to my glock 17 is a FA endplate when the Hughes Amendment get repealed/overturned. Other than that....its perfect as is.

Do any of you guys like the hogue slip on grips?

My first glock (2nd gen 22) came with one...I took it off after trying it for like 10 rounds.

I have the hogue grip on my 23 and my 27. I love them.
