How to Accurize the Glock

Glock is known for the reasonable accuracy of the pistol as it comes new in the box, but there are always shooters who like to tinker with a gun to improve performance. The Glock line of handguns are designed to "drop in" parts. This allows an owner to very easily modify one to create a personal gun. A number of manufacturers offer custom parts.
