New EDC is here!

[Caleb]

Yep, the stock config works just fine. Plus, on a carry pistol I don’t change much as far as action goes. I will change the sights (hate Glock sight picture) to my favorite trijicon HD with orange front and blacked out rear as soon as I have an extra $130 or so. Other than that, nothing else.....well maybe the back plate or like you mentioned an extended slide catch. I don’t mess with the trigger assembly, barrel, or slide on an edc. Ymmv

I put a brushed stainless steel on my 40cal long slide Glock because I wanted to match the slide from lone wolf. I actually prefer the all black back plate. I found for me anyway it draws attention away from my eye when aiming. But I am not very disciplined obviously.

Sights, yeah, I don't like stock sights hardly on any guns anymore. Night sights for me when I can!

I never mess with the trigger. Some people polish the parts of the trigger to "tune" it. I did this on my 10mm and found no change except it was shiny. No value, you would have to change out trigger to get a true trigger job. Not worth it at all. On a striker fired gun a trigger job is pointless IMO.

Not when it’s an M&P, and you’re using Apex parts.

Very nice set up bud, congrats !!

I’m a big Glock fan so you can’t go wrong, IMO.
I am now carrying my Glock 45 with the RMR as a primary. I do carry an extra magazines, light, knives, etc.

Carrying without a reload is a bit risky if you ask me.

What if your pistol balks, and “slap-rack-bang” ends with no bang?

With single stacks I always carry two extra mags, and with hi-caps at least one.

I hear ya and I’ve tried.

If “slap-rack-bang” ends with no bang then, there is something seriously wrong that an extra mag can’t fix (unless that mag is empty).

I’ll have 15+1 on tap with this single stack. That’s the same amount I would have with my current edc plus an extra mag!

I do want to try a pocket mag holder I have seen online. Looks to be minimal and will hold your mag like you are carrying a pocket knife (which I always do). Then I’ll have 32 rounds on tap.

This^^^ Some guns can benefit from a good aftermarket trigger set.....M&P is a great example.

But, for me on a carry piece I will leave the OEM in tact. Just train to shoot it as proficient as I can.
