We all know the factory Glock sights are notoriously poor, so let me replace them! I take a lot of care to make sure the sights on your pistol are installed and aligned correctly. I have a very nice sight pusher tool that drifts the sights on and off without the need of a punch or hammer. Using such a tool protects tritium vials from breaking, prevents marring of the slide, and the sights.

I just picked up the Recoil Management System, Versatility Kit from the great folks at SpringCO for my Glock 19 Gen 5. I wanted to show what I did to get it installed. It was pretty straight forward and easy to do.
Here are the parts that came in the package.
SpringCO Glock Recoil Management System Whats Included
I am going to install the Green 13# spring. As this is a non-captured setup I will be trying the 15 and 17 pound springs in the near future and keeping the one I like best and works best for my situation.

There are several videos that explain what is going on with the system when it is installed. I wanted to share my experience getting it installed.

A quick jig to hold your Glock Trigger for maintenance and / or training. Kinda cool to pull the trigger and see how things work.
Also good if you are doing something like the 25¢ trigger job. See how everything is running before you drop it back in.
A quick jig to hold your Glock Trigger without trigger
I include the white trigger pin file ‘Glock Trigger Jig Pin.stl’. I just use one of the extra pins that come with the back straps for the trigger housing pin. I print it with supports, round part on the bed.
