Was watching Ken Hackathorn talk about trigger discipline recently and he made the comment that Larry Vickers is the only guy he’s ever met that can basically take any handgun and any trigger and be spot on accurate regardless of good trigger, bad trigger, heavy trigger, light trigger etc.
Legends!
I learned about hooking the finger in from Pat Mac. It it works like a charm on my Glocks but fouls up my groups on every other pistol.... exactly like Larry said. This guy is a wizard.
The Vickers backplate is a life saver. I have neuropathy and can feel almost nothing in my fingers. I couldn't cycle a round into battler on my G17, G22, or G27 without this modification.
You're a National Treasure, Mr. Vickers!! May God continue to bless your invaluable contribution to freedom loving patriots!
Awesome podcast. These podcasts are the best ever. Please keep them coming.
I read this in Trump voice.
Finally someone who explained that you may have to drift the rear sight on the Glock
Mine drifted by itself lol
When the Colt LE901 first hit the market I traded a Glock 19, PTR91 GI, Remington 870 Marine Magnum, Ruger 10/22 Takedown and a WASR10 underfolder for one, I've never regretted that trade, still have the Colt. ;-)
When you started the RTF2 Vickers I was so psyched. They're amazing.
Great video as always Larry. My journey into firearms ownership and concealed carry started last year and my first Glock was the G45, followed by a G19 Gen 4 a few months later. Now I've just added a G17 Gen 5 MOS which will have an Aimpoint ACRO P1 installed on it very soon.
These podcasts are great. Keep it up LAV, the word will spread.
GOD BLESS YOU AND THANK YOU FOR YOUR SERVICE SIR. I JUST BOUGHT THE GLOCK 45 MODEL . I OWN 9 GLOCKS . I CARRY THE 19 AND 17 FOR SOCIAL WORK . I CARRY THE MODEL 20 FOR WOODS WORK. BUT I LOVE ALL QUALITY GUNS . THE 1911 RIDES WITH ME ALSO
Larry, you are hands down the best gun guy on the internet. I love your videos and learn from everyone that I watch. Thanks!
Ben at Boresight is really a great guy to do business with! They do what many myself included consider to be the best Glock upgrade work in the business. I have a Gen 5 Glock 19 that they did a complete upgrade package that includes reshape and stipple the grip, slide work, sights, and apex flat trigger. I would say it’s now Boresight perfection! If the stippling starts to wear out just send it back in and they will re-stipple it again at no charge, they really stand behind their product. Great info LAV appreciate all you do, I just wanted to shout Boresight out.

Enjoyed watching this one, thanks Larry!
Good to see you maintaining that healthy weight operator! good series!
Love your podcasts! No doubt a legend and an all around great man
Great Podcast Great Info!
LAV, great video. Thanks for the insight.
Larry you’re Gen4 magazine release is GOLD !! I’m running your magazine release, slide stop and baseplates on all my Glocks , they’re inexpensive but great enhancements. I’m going to checkout the G45 on your recommendation. DVC
Thanks for sharing. Great content
And I also love these Podcast Larry, very informative.......🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
I can listen to LAV talk guns all day.
I enjoy these podcasts. Please keep them coming. I'm not a huge Glock fan. Lately, though I've been enjoying the gen 5 Glock 19 (first iteration). The gen 5's are in my opinion the best variant produced to date by Glock.
Good series
Would love to see you do one of these on CZ! I just got a CZ P-01 (the compact version of the 75), and though I will always love my Glock 19, the CZ is my favorite new sidearm!
He always seems to give shade to CZ for some odd reason.
The P01 is nice. You should try out a P10C also and the P07
I own five CZ pistols and they are all sweet shooters. I sold and traded away most of my Glocks for CZ and never looked back.
as soon as I put a cz in my hand I shot it like I had been using it for years.
Way cool strong work LAV , could you do a quick video on your wrist watch collection lots of gun guys are watch guy as well thanks 🇺🇸
We need a video on every firearm possible
Please do one of this series on the HK USP series of pistols. Thanks
Outstanding Larry, love the podcasts!; Stay safe and God bless 🇺🇸☠️🇺🇸!!
Pretty much an infomercial :/
Tango Down leaf guards for your gutters too follow ;)
Real slick piece of kit. Awesome video!
I love that he uses “flavour” as a term for different variants of a certain weapon. I use it in the same way for different items 😂
LAV is the best. Thank you for your service.
VP70 and VP70M perhaps 🤔
The LAV is a humble genius ;-)
Larry , love this series, but this one should not be titled Glock, it should be titled Larry Vickers Glock Mods
15:19 I think it's a bigger problem with Glock 45ACP mags than with 9mm's. The 17/19 mags, when you fill them to capacity, you can still push down on the top round, it will move down a bit so there is still a minuscule amount of room in the mag. With 21/30 mags, when they are fully loaded the rounds just don't budge :)
Punisher logo haunts me on the daily
My daily is the g45 and by far my favorite out of all the models I own. 👍🇺🇲
The only gripe I have with my g45 is I wish it had finger grooves like the older gens. But I get along fine without them. 🇺🇲
My daily is the 19X.
Black & Tan
Glock 19 is a fine pistol but I have found the CZ P-07 is the same size but works a little better for me. Also, the P-07 has a hammer which makes it a little safer for appendix carry. I always put my thumb on the hammer when holstering the P-07 to be sure nothing causes an accidental trigger pull. First shot P-07 double action is a little stiffer trigger pull than a Glock 19 but every shot thereafter is single action and the pull is much lighter and smoother than the Glock.
listening to Larry talk reminds me of home. If you know the PA accent you know what I’m talking about.
Hes from nc
@@stevenbode285 sounds like PA to me
I'm also a huge fan of the G19.
I have 2 gen 3 models.
One with a optic, one iron sighted ( Trijicon).
Great video. Looks like I need to order a few of the rear slide plates with then"wings".
45 years as a mechanic have my hands pretty knarled up.
The g45 is the same as a 19x right?
Agree on the G45 and as usual, you set the standard for putting out comprehensive info on any topic. Glock is definitely the AK of pistols.
I would have gone the other way with the G34 being one of the best Glocks but you have forgotten more than I know about small arms. So as always 👍
Hey Larry how are doing My Friend? Hey listen, I've got a question for you. I purchased a Grip Plug for my Gen3 Glock 20 SF and it didn't fit properly, bit I got it to fit after some Modifications. I was watching this Video and I see that you have a Male/Female type of Adapter now I guess. I don't see that on the Tango Down website, can you give me some info Please? I actually had to cut the Take Down Tool down to fit the Plug into the Grip. THANK YOU VERY KINDLY Larry and I'm sure glad to see you're doing Well. 🤝🏾🇺🇸💪🏾
G45 and G19x
Can you dry fire these polymer guns without dummy rds or does that damage the gun?
Yes you can dry fire a Glock.
Glock won’t be perfect until they modify they blocky grip. A lot of fans would agree. Glock needs to improve their grips.
Too bad here in CA we can't get anything except Gen 3 Glocks which have the finger grooves. My problem with the grooves is that it really affects the grip angle and doesn't allow any adjustment on your grip. That issue must be why Glock did away with the grooves in the Gen 5. Looks more modern as well. I picked the Beretta PX4 Storm Full Size bc of ergonomics and minimal muzzle flip which keeps follow up shots on target. What do you guys in the gun community think of my comment?
This LV guy has his name on a gun (s) from almost every gun brand . Springfield Armory, Glock, Wilson Combat....etc.
Not a fan of the 19.. doesnt fill right in hand. rather have the 17. Have a Gen 3 22.49, 20yrs and love it. thanks for video
Did you ever think about cutting down the finger groves on the 19?
@@lawrencewu3356 I'm the same, 19 isn't for me. It's not just not the grooves. It's too small for my hand. My pinky hangs off the grip.
D DEMCHAK. Gen 3. Best generation
First handgun i bought.only handgun ill ever buy.GLOCK is the handgun for me 😏
I have glock 19x
19X and a Roma Draco. Why? Cause they just work. ;-)
20:30 minor correction, the HK pistol that predated the Glock in using a polymer frame was the VP70 and VP70Z, not VP9.
Well said on those laser engraved glock slide plates. I never liked them either. Why add a distraction right next to your rear sight? Dumb.
It’s funny that the Punisher logo was specifically called out because that’s exactly where my brain went when he started talking about laser engraved back plates.
Hey! Larry, I have a question, what do you think about the Glock model 20 Gen 4 and the Glock model 41 Gen 4 ? I am not really a fan of 9 mm
10:50 "But the engraving gives you no tactical advantage whatsoever"
Larry still has trouble with those butt/baseplates
What’s the issue with them?
@@ericquintana1900 pronunciation mostly. Here’s a blooper from Larry’s TAC-TV days th-cam.com/video/yCcLtAPJ6Fw/w-d-xo.html
@@WalksWithNoFear 😂
Tango Down/Vickers infomercial
Pat McNamara has a video promoting inserting your finger on to the trigger as far as you can. Just saying.
While I respect the Glock, I dont like them. Good info though.
Never saw a P-07 that worked 🤢
So because of a bad design decision, Glock's crappy grip angle, I have to modify my grip and training regiment just to have the pistol shoot straight? No thanks, I'll stick to my 1911, Beretta and P320.
Or...just drift the sight 1mm and never think about it again?
Most overrated guns ever...Glocks!
