    I have an OD Green Gen 3 26. I had the slide milled for an RMR, added front serrations and had it cerakoted OD green at Precision Tactical in Crestview, FL. I mounted a Trijicon RMR type 2 also in OD green with Ameriglo suppressor height night sights. Man, I love it. It's a good, chubby litlle gun.
    Pix!!!! Have you used the pmags for the 26??

    Maritime spring cups? Worth the extra??
    Will you be shooting under water when you're deploying with seal team 6? :p lol..

    the pros are: let debris pass through the striker sleeve like water and such
    the cons are: more holes and possibilities of dirt getting in between the channel liner, striker and striker sleeve to cause failures. Also weaker side support due to less materials on the striker.

    I don't have them on any of my Glocks but your "mission" may call for it. My "missions" these days consist of good liquor & cigars when duty calls

    That's what I was thinking too. My outdoor carry guns tend to get crap in em. I call dirt "polish". Don't know if I'll carry this one outdoors for play. It's gonna be shiny and new. May get one of the owb clear holsters for bbq's and such.

    Hopefully the magpul mag works good.

    I have a Gen 3 26 with an extra lone wolf threaded barrel if you are interested.
    Under 400 rds, about 200 suppressed. Runs great with night sights.
    What spring/guiderod did you end up going with to shoot suppressed?

    And they sent the wrong slide.... Damm lucky I had her check it. Normally I'd have her just toss it on my bench. Would have been a bummer to get home and find out. Plus all the extra Hassel due to the time passed. Don't think the color looks right anyway.
    Also looks large for a G26?? Seller says it's FDE but looks ODG??
