Do you guys have any tips or recommendations? For the glock or anything gun related for that matter haha. I want the G19 only as my carry gun, I'd prefer a 1911 but it's a bit too large for me to conceal comfortably, I'm 5'7 and weigh 145lbs haha. Thanks for any input and advice, hope to be stopping by this thread more frequently!
The only thing a Glock needs are night sights and a holster.

When not at a range:
-Dry fire, dry fire, dry fire, dry fire, dry fire. Did I mention dry fire?
-Practice presentation from CCW.
-Practice reloading with empty mags - no live ammo near you (preferably in another room)
-Practice malfunction clearing drills
-Practice the above in low light or the dark

You will be presently surprised at how these actions will build muscle memory.
