In November of 2023 I acquired my first 1911. The purists out there will tell you that my 1911, chambered in .40S&W, is not a real 1911. Regardless, I have a 1911 in .40S&W and I want to do some load development.
In this project, I wanted to build a competition ready Glock. This would include a ported barrel and slide, new trigger, and adding more weight, all with the goal of reducing recoil and make it more controllable for competitions like Steel Shoot. Starting from a base Gen 3 Glock 22 (yes, you read that right) I turned to multiple vendors to build the beast that was in my head. Lets see how it turned out.
