Frequently Asked Questions

What are some popular aftermarket baseplate options for the Glock 27?

Popular options include the Mil-Spin Glass Breaker Weighted Baseplate for recoil reduction and emergency use, Springer Precision baseplates for extended grip, Strike Industries +1 baseplates for improved ergonomics and texture, and X-Grip sleeves used with larger Glock magazines to enhance grip size.

How can I improve the grip on my Glock 27 sub-compact pistol?

You can improve the grip on a Glock 27 by using aftermarket baseplates like those from Springer Precision or Strike Industries, which offer extended grip surfaces. Alternatively, using X-Grip sleeves with larger capacity magazines, such as those from a Glock 23, can effectively convert the sub-compact grip to a more compact size.

Are there any magazine extensions for the Glock 27 that increase capacity?

Yes, options like the Pierce Grip extension can increase capacity to 9-10 rounds. However, the speaker notes that this particular extension may not feel great. Other options, like using a Glock 23 13-round magazine with an X-Grip sleeve, effectively increase capacity and grip size for the Glock 27.

What is the benefit of a weighted baseplate on a Glock 27 magazine?

A weighted baseplate, such as the Mil-Spin option, can help reduce felt recoil by adding mass to the bottom of the magazine. This can contribute to a more stable shooting experience and faster follow-up shots, especially with the .40 S&W caliber.
