Frequently Asked Questions

What are the key modifications made to the custom Glock 45?

The custom Glock 45 features a Radian Ramjet barrel and Afterburner compensator for improved cycling, a direct mill RMR cut for the optic, Dawson Precision sights, a Glock Performance trigger, custom Cerakote, frame stippling, and a flared magwell. These mods aim for enhanced reliability and ergonomics.

Why is direct slide milling preferred over Glock MOS for some custom builds?

Direct milling for an optic, like an RMR cut, is often chosen to avoid potential tolerance stacking issues inherent in the Glock MOS system. This can lead to a more robust and reliable optic mounting solution, especially for demanding applications.

How does the Glock Performance Trigger differ from the standard Safe Action trigger?

The Glock Performance Trigger functions more like a single-action trigger, with the striker fully cocked before the pull. This results in a crisper, lighter trigger break compared to the standard Safe Action trigger, which has a longer, partially cocked striker pull.

What causes the reloading issue observed with the custom Glock 45?

The reloading issue, where the slide fails to lock back or pick up the next round, can occur when a magazine is not fully loaded. Aggressively slamming a partially compressed magazine can cause the follower to slightly compress, leading to a failure to feed as the slide cycles.
