The EDC Setup That MIGHT Have Me Carrying 9mm Again… Glock “C” Setups and Models

Duration: 8:45

This guide details the process of sending a Glock 27 slide to 'The Glock Store' for porting, creating 'C cuts' on the barrel and slide. This modification aims to significantly reduce recoil, making a .40 S&W firearm shoot flatter and more like a 9mm. The speaker emphasizes the importance of a quick turnaround time for such services and provides an estimated cost for the porting process. The ultimate goal is to enhance the everyday carry experience by taming recoil without adding external length to the firearm.
