        Ya for anything other than competition, my opinion is just sights and maybe grip of some sort if you fancy that. My 20 and 26 just swapped sights and put rubberized Talons. I still may put the Timney trigger in my 20.

          Better sights, but its purely preference (and might not be cheap).

            only thing I've found useful on all my Glocks is to change the sites, and that's it...

              Upgraded slide lock/release and mag release.

              Although what other suggested are great advice, but does not fit the definition of cheap.

                Some my mods (to a Gen III) that are actually useful, repeating most of what's said above:
                • Better trigger, forget the make but I like it a LOT more than the factory trigger.
                • Better sights, I changed mine to Ameri-Glo Hackathorn sights.
                • Better (lighter) disconnector, 3.5#
                • Better slide release, mag release, and slide lock. All of them protrude slightly more than the originals. Very helpful.

                  I like the trapezoidal slide release.

                  Also, depending on your hand size, +O mag. extensions for a full grip.

                    Aside from replacing the sights, I replaced the trigger on my Glock 19 with a Glock 17 trigger. I prefer the smooth trigger instead of the serrated.

                      I did that early on with mine. Though I swapped in a smooth one from a G30, I believe. Eventually went aftermarket.

                        The extended slide stop is a good point and forgot I did add one to my 26. I don’t intend to use that regularly but I figure if there’s ever a situation where releasing the slide one handed is needed, it’s a hell of a lot easier with the extended version.

                        The extended mag release is something I’ve looked into a ton but haven’t jumped into because that was my biggest gripe going to Glock from SIG is how (maybe my thumb isn’t long enough) to release a magazine without rotating the gun slightly in my grip.

                          For the love of God. Leave it stock, except sights.

                            Metal sights if yours came with plastic ones.

                            25 cent trigger job since most Glocks come with gritty triggers that take a few thousand rounds to really smooth out.

                            Everything else is a subjective matter so just use your firearm until you feel what works best for you.

                            WTB used AK MFER.

                              Better sights, maybe a trigger job or something like an Overwatch Tac drop in, and stippling for grip. You can also buy an aftermarket slide already cut for a red dot. You can't buy skill, but you can buy mechanical advantage.

There's no possible way that CGN members marching alongside the Pink Pistols in the SF Pride Parade can do anything to dispel the stereotype that gun owners are conservative bigots clinging to their guns and bibles. Not a single person in the crowd is rational or reachable because the parade's for gay folks and it's in SF.
