Contact Tactical Tailor before you do anything. They will probably repair it for you gratis.

Not trying to change your methods Griz. Just giving info on what new gear they developed in the last 450 years.

Griz, I have been carrying a Glock 19 or Glock 48 mag in a NeoMag every day, all day for well over 3 years now. I started with a standard single magnet model and moved to the G model - which has a double magnet - when they were released. The G model with the double magnets work much better on the polymer sheathed Glock OEM mags, but it is too strong for any metal mags (the clip comes out of the pocket with the mag). The original model was then transitioned to carry my metal bodied Shield G48 mags when I carry the 48 instead of the 19. I have never had anything get in the mag, and I have never had any damage to the feed lips. I even have the NeoMag RASC for revolvers which is a pocket clip that holds a speed strip - that one gets carried in my strong side front pocket. I’m a believer. RASC - G model w/deep clip - Std model

If I’m carrying a gun, I always carry a handheld flashlight and a spare mag. I also use a Neomag and pocket carry (support side front) my mag while AIWB my pistol.

I’ve been saying it since at least 2017:

Preach!! Nights Sights suck! Fiber Optic or all black and a WML are the way for any defensive gun. Fiber Optics are the way for recreational/competition shooting guns. There is really no place for tritium night sights anymore in this day and age.

You sure it’s gone, and doesn’t just need a good cleaning? Yes. This is the correct answer.

You definitely do! When Lucas was little (he couldn’t read yet) we passed a Shiner Bock delivery truck making a stop at a local liquor store. He wanted to know what the truck with the TaunTaun on it had inside. I told him “probably a Skywalker” and he giggled like a madman.

Doubtful. Knowing this crew - you’ll likely get offers for many 6 packs of Shiner Bock to try.

No reason to mention it as there is only one choice: Shiner Bock.

What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?

Some people love dumpers, some hate them. I keep them on all my belts. They are great for admin stuff when on the range - bottle of water, marker, extra mag or 2, stapler or can of spray adhesive, etc… Operationally, I leave it rolled up and stowed. If I need it for evidence/SSE I’ll open it then. I also keep a set of pouches that I can add to my regular pants belt (Ares Aegis belt) in a hurry to mimic a minimalist ad-hoc fighting setup using my CCW holster.

Basically the antidote to anything that you would grouse about while away from your vehicle. Not mission critical stuff, but comfort items. Yup. I would keep some lickies and chewies (gummie bears and Werthers), hand warmers, flavor drink powder and a 1/2L water bag (platypus), dry socks and gloves, Tylenol and Tums, bandaids and tape, toque and insulated face cover, ground pad/tarp, chapstick, bug spray, paperback book, sunscreen, etc…. It all went into colored stuffsacks (one for food/water, one for warmth, one for boo-boos, etc…) and the stuffsacks went into the backpack. I could grab what I wanted by grabbing the colored sack.

It may seem pricey, but quality kit is worth every penny. It’s about value, not always price. Remember - Buy once, cry once.

Gear should be distributed in a scalable manner. Basics are: 0 line - pockets - the absolute bare necessities 1st line - fighting belt - ability to carry basic fighting equipment 2nd line - plate carrier or chest rig - supplemental gear to continue the fight 3rd line - pack or bag - snivel gear and sustainment For 1st line you want: 1.75” 2 part MOLLE belts (1.5” inner belt goes through your pant loops. Then the outer belt velcros to the inner belt) I like Lead Devil: https://www.leaddevilusa.com/175-belts/tactician-belt-rb2ne-benfp-ljrch and Blue Alpha: https://www.bluealphabelts.com/product/molle-1-75-battle-belt/ You want very stiff belts. It distributes the weight of the gear better and is much more comfortable. If you are adamant about wanting a flaccid belt GCode is the answer: https://www.tacticalholsters.com/product/contact-series-operators-belt-175/ I had the GCode. Went to the Lead Devil, which I really like, when I was tired of having sore hips. I would have stayed with LD but I won a gift certificate for the Blue Alpha at a Modern Samurai Project class. They are basically identical. As for kit on the belt, I like ESSTAC for my ammo pouches (pistol and rifle), Tactical Tailor Fight Light for dumper and multitool pouches, Coyote STOMP for blow out kit, and Safariland for the holster (ALS on low ride with leg strap - not a thigh holster).

Yep - Lowest they’ve been in years.

Throw it over the berm!

Have fun and good luck. Please report back, I am curious how this turns out.

That nose-dive type malfunction is almost guaranteed to be a mag issue, in my experience. Glock OEM reduced capacity 10round mags are not known for reliability and the different follower can cause issues. Maybe try replacing the springs with Wolff +10% springs or try Magpul 10round G19 mags. Remember, the Glock relies on the mag spring as part of the extraction/ejection cycle. If the mag springs are weak, you can have a slow down in the ejection process which can lead to feeding issues. I’d also try shooting the 26 with standard OEM G26 mags (add a Pearce +0 Pinky shelf type mag floor-plate to get a full-size grip feel) and see what shakes.

Good post PB. Hope all is well.

I know if you are an illegal immigrant, you can use your immigration warrant as ID to board flights: https://www.wdrb DOT com/news/national/tsa-confirms-it-allows-illegal-immigrants-to-use-arrest-warrants-as-id-in-airports/article_b9c0c0c2-7ae4-11ec-a596-f74c3a1af295.html Replace the DOT in the link with .

That was no joke. That’s the way to do it.

Sweet. Barred Owls. We hear them here late at night (Who cooks for you) Never get to see them during the day, just some eye shine at night. Great Horned Owl! Very cool.
