@moosegoose1282 funny enough, that has actually happened twice... Both instances ended up being a good laugh for the K9 units at the location I was entering, as I had already declared the need for a lock box on site. I don't do a tear down to deep clean. Just soak in warm water and sink top dish soap. Use a tooth brush to scrub, and one pipe cleaner for the tight spots. Rinse well and then dry it out with an air blower. Basically I let the pistol tell me when this is necessary, so if the trigger feels gritty, or the mag release is depressing oddly I do a soak and scrub the internals.

@@Hebrews10_26 I regularly carry my G20 for hiking, or when I'm working the fence lines. Bear and cougar are quite common in my area, and they are sneaky suckers.

@@PhotoCaptured yeah I didn't normally carry the 20 alot but I'll do it sometimes. Mostly my 19 or 45

@duque_bm whatever you decide on, enjoy it well! The only way I'd consider coating my slide is if I start having rust issues with carry. So far so good, and I kinda like the honest wear 🔥

@Faben202 Dude, welcome to the awesome world of firearms. Here's to many years of safe use! I'm actually working on my layout to explain this on video, but here's the short of it. I keep a Field Notes dot journal for each firearm I own, and simply mark off a tally for each box of ammo put through it, and when I do a parts change or replacement due to wear. It's definitely excessive in some ways, but I figured if armed forces and police armorers are doing it, then it might be useful for me. This is an example of what some of my tallies look like written up rather than just marked in the notebook. Walther PDP Compact SD Pro 02-24-2023 806rnds on Standard Silver RSA 21rnds Green Suppressor RSA 04-03-2023 Holosun 507C-GR added at 92rnds (Replacement under warranty, on stand-by) 509T mounted at 516rnds (New Battery on 509T Duracell, 06-26-2024) Savage Apex 110 .300Win-Mag 10-08-2021 63rnds Suppressed 57rnds (Zero confirmed with Federal/Barnes 180gr TSX factory load.) I indicate suppressed versus bare bones because the suppressor can increase back pressure on some firearms. Rather than nitpick which ones are affected, I just indicate for all accordingly.

@tiffdtate short answer is to get both. I'll be doing an in depth video on the Walther, and what I love about it, but there's a reason I got it. They brought out an update that is worth having, and ironed our some minor issues that previous iterations had. If you're wanting something to carry easily and confidently right off the bat, I have to recommend the Glock, but if you are able and willing to get what's needed for the Walther. Well it's worth having, and a SOLID choice, but a little bulkier.

@michaelbecker3513 Many, many, MANY years, if well taken care of! My uncle inherited the rifle that my great grandfather acquired new from the factory in 1928. It's a Remington pump action in .22LR, and every single family member that I can think of learned to shoot with it. Some of us even used it in competition and placed well with it. My great-grandmother received that rifle as a wedding present when she was 18. Her daughter learned on it, and she taught her four kids how to shoot with it. There are 21 first cousins, and we all learned to shoot using it. Now that Grammy has been gone for 14yrs, her great great grandkids are learning to shoot with it. The one long-standing rule is, if you use it, then you have to clean and oil it. Several of us are certified armorers, and gun smiths by hobby, so that rifle has been carefully preserved in family history for a very long time. I personally fired more than 15k rounds of 22LR through that rifle, and it was just as accurate from shot one to the 15k mark. Basically, if you take care of it and do your part, it's going to be around for a long time to come! Certain rifle calibers and necked cartridges in general will have their limitations due to flame cutting and corrosion. But overall, you're taking charge of a tool that can last a very long time. Take care of your Glock and it'll be around for a good while 👌

@@PhotoCaptured So I gather I bought a lifelong investment

@michaelbecker3513 short of doing catastrophic damage, and counting on you doing your part - yes. Replace consumable parts before they fail. (Springs, pins, and locking block.) Clean and lube with reasonable intervals. Don't get crazy with cutting into the slide/frame, and it will serve you well for a very long time.

@@PhotoCaptured Well I’m 36 so it will be with me forever because I take better care of it than I do of myself 🤣😂

@michaelbecker3513 haha well, just don't baby it. Remember it's a tool designed to be used. Best wishes as you enjoy using it, and live well 👌

@danielianello they are Wrangler Active Flex that I get at Big R locally. Phone goes in back left pocket when not in use or into the satchel - never the front pocket.

@@PhotoCaptured Health reasons or preference? Been meaning to make the switch myself, hard habit to break.

@danielianello it's a combination. The health reasons were recommended by my PCP, but I also find it more comfortable. So making the switch was pretty easy a few years back. Once you do it, there's no going back!

@@theconservativeminimalist9334 as inspiration strikes, and I can bring hopefully quality content, then I'll release more. Thanks for the encouragement, I appreciate it!

@OldManGlitch nope... the transfer Form used for a classification of dangerous items. ATF Form 4 is an application used to transfer a suppressor, or other NFA (National Firearms Act) firearm, from a non-licensee to a licensee or other entity. It is legal documentation, and a stamp secured to the form to demonstrate legal ownership of a controlled/regulated item outside of "standard" firearms.

@mvincenzo23 they are Ameriglo Spartan Tactical. Previously, I did have Tru-Glo TFX Pro sights mounted.

@@PhotoCaptured thank, my friend!!!

@mvincenzo23 happy to help 👌 For fixed sights, the orange front is super great for my eyes; ironically, I have green emitters for my optics. Go to a shop where you can try things out, I found what works for me and just stuck with it. Function over form every day. Ooh wait... I have a Glock as my primary, so that point is clear 😎

No links, but I'll do an update on the description to include all the items. I always recommend looking around for the best deal, so if you know what it is and can search it, you'll get the best deal possible 👌

@@PhotoCaptured thank u any suggestions? Were to find

@aidan666 absolutely, without a doubt. No negative comfort difference, and noticeably better concealment.

@lemonycactus8687 it's the ABDO from Tenicor, basically everything that supports my pistol is from them. Solid product, very comfortable, and I like how it functions.

@@isaiahthekid41 it's the Kershaw/Emerson 4KXL in D2 👌 Recommended to me by John Lovell over on The Warrior Poet Society.

I have my duty issue G17 from a past life. Great piece, but I see no good reason to carry it much. Like you, I don't find that it brings me any benefits, and the increase in size just means more effort to conceal. I do prefer the G17 mags if I'm going to carry a spare because they index much easier for me. The shorter G19 mags can be funky to manipulate with my hands getting in the way...

@@MeatballHoagie ha nice man! And thanks for the nod. There are a number of good holster makers out there, but my goal is great, and readily available. When something is so unique that it requires a multi-week lead time, that's not going to cut it. Tenicor doesn't know me from Adam, and that's fine, because I'm just recommending a high quality product that works. They constantly have their version of sales, and even the Blemicor stuff is fantastic! In fact all but one of my holsters from them is a blem item, and I have no issues with that.

Very rarely... my overall size and weight just aren't conducive to smaller options. A G26 or P365 if I just can't push the G19 into my dress attire. Even rarer, but for truly deep concealment I'll go to an LCP II Lite. If I'm not careful, I can jam up a G19 because of my hands getting in the way. The micro compacts just amplify that problem for me, so I do my best to conceal the G19 even if I have to put extra effort in. I guess I'll have to do a demo video when I have friends together so I can show what happens with tiny freedom seed dispensers 😬

@@PhotoCaptured Interesting, would love to see that video. Have you tried a shield plus? Its one of the 'bigger' micro compacts, as much of an oxymoron as that is.

@voltic7133 I can't speak for the PHLster, but I do know they are well regarded. My body shape and the way that I carry in the appendix position, the Tenicor Velo4 is very comfortable. With any holster, once you find your sweet spot, there shouldn't be any issues for you. I have not had any issues to speak of with the Tencior, and highly recommend them. The video that is uploading now actually demonstrates the holster in use, and it is superb in my book!
