No Gimmicks: The Best Upgrades for Your Glock

Drop-In Trigger for Glock Red

You want to get something light, snappy, and easy to install when upgrading your Glock trigger. The Agency Arms drop-in Glock trigger in red is the perfect balance of quality and affordability.

The trigger is a flat-faced kit that comes in an anodized red finish to really make your pistol catch the eye. It’s a drop-in design, meaning you can install it yourself in minutes without having to worry about not having enough parts.

The Agency Arms trigger gives you a shorter and lighter trigger pull with a noticeably snappy reset. It’s ideal for rapid-fire at the range, as well as competitive shooting. The 3.5-pound pull weight will also improve your accuracy because you won’t be putting as much force on the trigger when firing. A fully-loaded Glock 17 weighs only two pounds, while the factory trigger pull weight is six pounds. Halving the pull weight will go a long way towards making you a more accurate shooter.

The upgrade keeps the important safety lever in the trigger face – which is essential considering Glocks don’t have a safety switch.

The flat face of the trigger allows the shooter to have more control the whole way through the pull and reset.

It comes in different models to fit Gen 1-4 and Gen 5 Glocks, as well as the G43.

Ameriglo – Agent Night Sight Set

The Ameriglo Agent Night Sight Set for Glock is one of the best options on the market right now. How do you know they’re reliable? Because they’re the official sight set for the FBI and US Marshals, that’s how.

The sights are made from high-quality steel bar stock and have been dehorned to ensure they don’t catch on your clothes and risk making your gun get stuck when you draw it. The design also allows you to comfortably rack the slide with one hand.

The sights use a popular three-dot configuration. The front blade has a Tritium green illuminated dot circled by an orange ring, making it extremely easy to pick targets and place accurate shots, even in low-light conditions and when under stress.

The rear U-notch sight also features Tritium green lamps to help identify targets quickly and easily. The sights have a matte black finish that matches your Glock slide’s color, so you don’t have to worry about them standing out.

The sights are a simple upgrade to make, but they make a huge difference in how effectively you can aim. This is critical for proper self-defense.

Finally, the Ameriglo Agent Night Sight Set for Glock can be installed at home in just a few minutes thanks to their simple drop-in design.

Hogue Handall Beavertail Grip Sleeves

Hogue’s Handall Beavertail Grip Sleeves are purpose-built to fit specific firearms. The company prioritizes comfort and a more natural fit for your hand. Their Glock sleeves are made to slip over the frame and their rubber material ensures that they don’t move around once secured.

The rubber used to build them is high-quality and built to last for decades to come. It won’t wear or spoil, even after years of use. It’s also great for giving you more grip, which means more confidence when shooting.

The dots and two-finger grooves on the grip help you to stabilize the weapon and make for a more natural feel when holding it. This is ideal for owners of Gen 5 Glocks who miss having finger grooves on the frame.

The grip sleeve isn’t just there for comfort, it also cushions your hand during recoil and it stops you from getting the skin between your index finger and thumb caught in the slider.

The Hogue Handall Beavertail Grip Sleeve is a quick and easy upgrade to your Glock that will make a big difference.

Silencerco Threaded Barrels

The Silencerco threaded Glock barrel is perfect for the recreational shooter who wants to attach a suppressor to their firearm. This is a must for anyone using their Glock for home defense.

The Silenerco Threaded Barrel is machined from 416R stainless steel with black nitride or natural steel finish. The high-quality materials will keep your gun working smoothly for years to come and slightly improve your accuracy.

The end of the 9mm barrel has 1/2×28 threading, as well as a thread protector, so you can easily attach a suppressor and keep everything in good condition when it’s not in use.

While it’s not the most affordable upgrade you can make to your firearm, it’ll certainly improve your shooting experience and the practicality of your Glock.

Note that this barrel can only be used with Gen 3 and Gen 4 Glocks. It’s an easy-to-install drop-in design, so you won’t need the assistance of a gunsmith.
