    I knew of a Real Estate deal where this couple was buying a house in a sliver of unincorporated land smack dab in the middle of Santa Clara about 500ft off the El Camino with tight parking on the street etc. Being unincorporated the house was still on a SEPTIC TANK, but when the RE agent told them "like folks have out in the country" they were all "That is what we want!" and bought the house.

        As for the Zev Upgrade...Glockman19 says spend the money on another Glock or more ammo... Upgrade the trigger to a 3.5# and you're good to go.

          lol agreed with the gentlemen above.

          It's the gun equivalent of putting big wings and big wheels on cars. Go for it if you love the look, but it won't make you a better driver/shooter.

          If you want to be a better driver, you go to track days and buy lots of tires/gas.

          If you want to be a better shooter, you take classes, shoot matches, and buy a ton of rounds.

            Zev is overpriced and their stipple work is pure garbage

              Neat. But I wouldn't pay for it.

              I've never shot a gun and thought, "man, if only I could completely rebuild this gun it would be so much better". If I did, I'd just buy another gun.

                My buddy had a glock 21 gen 4 with stippling I don't really care for it. He also had that goofy style mag release and it ****ing sucked.

                    Then you still need a 17 & 34 to round out your 9mm Glock collection. After that there area few more to consider before making unnecessary changes, I can't call the ZEV an upgrade.

                    Maybe even get a couple of Advantage Arms uppers for the 19 & 26? more trigger time could close your groups up and allow for more economical practice with the .22lr instead of the 9mm.

                      I also had a teardrop mag release. It released the mag very well, especially when I gripped hard enough. It also limited my holster selection (unless i got creative with a dremel).

                      I ended up going with a Vickers tac extended.

                        His glock didn't release the mag,it would consistently not drop it all the way. I like the factory release.

                          My thoughts exactly.

                            op, my zev 34 and 17 are very nice. i didnt buy that kit but had the slide and trigger work done at zev.

                            i have found that i actually prefer to shoot my zev glocks over my apex m&p pro cores.

                            i wouldnt say their stippling sucks, its just a bit tame imo. not enough grip is added, i like a more aggressive stipple.

                              Can you post pics? How was the trigger?

                                sure, here is one i just took of my 34. the 17 is being cerakoted to match. as you can tell, i got the frame back from zev and proceeded to F it up myself with stippling. my later stipple jobs look much better.



                                i like the zev triggers a lot. i think they are better than apex's offerings.

                                i have tried pretty much every glock trigger on the market and settled on zev. that being said, i just got my new mcnally trigger for the 17 so i will demo that one soon.
