Glock 20 Gen 4 10mm

[CaNINE]

I’m in the market for a G20. My plan is to run the buffalo bore 220 grain hard casts. This load harnesses the full potential of the 10mm. I’ve read that you need to upgrade to a 22 lb recoil spring and a aftermarket barrel like a lone wolf or KKM. The stock glock barrels don’t do well with hard cast bullets. Anyone experience this?

I have the 22 pound spring, but the original barrel in my G20 (gen2).
What barrel issue has been experienced with the hard casts?

P.S.  it's my favorite pistol ever.

No first hand experience myself but I’ve read of fouling and accuracy issues. Do they shoot well in your glock?

no issues

I ran the Glock 20 gen 4 10mm this season and loved it but.Finding a good  holster has been difficult so far.I wore the Kenai chest holster and my bino rig ran underneath of it not very comfortable and wore heavy.A good side holster for this would be a game changer.

Well I can’t find the holster covered in mole skin.  Probably in storage as I don’t have the pistol it was for any more.

Just my  . I would recommend the underwood 220g hardcast load over any buffalo bore. Much cheaper at $18 a box, same speed, and higher quality.

I personally like the glock 29 with the gunfifghters chest holster.   Hard to go wrong with the 10 in grizz country.  Very accurate gun with plenty in the magazine.

Agreed, that’s my set up as well.  Gunfighters Inc. Kenai is an awesome holster but not cheap.. Neither is a lot of stitches or,  your life.  Only downfall is I can’t wear my binoculars on my chest when wearing the Kenai or, at least not where I like them to be and have the Glock handy.   

That holster is louder than a tin can full of rocks. I made a few product review videos and sent them directly to GunFighters. No response. I wouldn't be caught dead in the woods with that thing on, it's so damn noisy.

I have the 40mos and the Gunfighters Inc. Kenai chest holster.  Only time the holster is load is when i draw. And if you are able to pull it out slowly its not bad.  I figured if i have to draw fast i don't mind it being noisy.
I also hang my binos over the top hanging below.  Not a issue.  You get used to it after awhile and forget it's there. Hard to hide though if you go in a restaurant or store with it on. So i usually leave it in the car. Which i don't care for.

I’d vote for the G40. Shoot it and see - more accurate, easier to aim, quicker follow up because it has a little more mass but you will never notice the extra weight on your chest. Shot half a dozen different loads and the buffalo bore 220s had by far the best penetration. Very close to a 44 mag through wood blocks. The Kenai chest holster just needs a little electrical tape to quiet it down. I wear my binos right over it and can still draw easily, but I just use a bino harness and not a full case.

So that’s my plan also last two posts are pretty much what I’m gonna plan to do
Bino  buddies over the top of it and I’m not too worried about conceal carry cause I just wear an over shirt over it if I go into a restaurant and I’m fine

[shootingblanks]

Darn spell check.  Loud  not load. I have a bino harness without case. Works great over the top and under the 40. I sure feel safer in camp at night with 40 strapped to my chest.

First trip out with the Kenai gunfighter I don’t think it’s noisy for sitting or walking
 there is some noise when you draw the weapon but I’m not planning to hunt with it
I put the moleskin on the inside chest side to keep it from sliding
I really like it
easy on and off and doesn’t really interfere with my predator calls daypack or my Bino buddies
And didn’t see shat

I would get the 29 if you do a lot of hiking. It's better if you want to go low profile.

Been eyeing a 10mm as well for a few years now. I carry my 9mm all the time in the woods and I use the Alien Gear Molle holster and it's amazing(I carry it on my hip strong side). The only thing is that you have to have molle webbing on your pack where you want to carry and lucky for me my Kifaru pack has molle around the waist belt so it fits perfectly. I never notice it on me, rides very well and when it rains I don't have to worry about it as much sense it's kydex. For the price I am very happy with it and when I do have the cash for a 10mm I will be buying another one for sure. I love the 10mm round, hate the cost of ammo and the limited options but it's a great woods gun. Just my 

I like 10mm but I don't think it is needed in our state. I would feel plenty safe with 15 rounds of Xtreme penetrator in 9mm. That stuff is nuts.

Well you’ve all inspired me to spend some money. Picked up a glock 20 last night from MKR Tactical here in Gig Harbor. Had them install some Trijicon night sights. I have a Jager guide rod and ISMI 22# recoil spring in the mail. Picked up some Underwood 200 grain and 220 grain flat nose ammo. Stand by for range report.

Thank goodness.

You needed another firearm.
