Tag: Gun Upgrade

It is hugely beneficial to improve your gun every single week. According to a post on county10.com, when you upgrade your gun and its parts, then you’re fostering its whole functions along with its performance. All these are equally crucial elements to consider if you opt to use your gun for protection or sport.

The upgrade options that are currently available are almost overwhelming as there are so many to select from. This guide will ensure the top gun upgrades you may make to maximize your overall experience. 

 

Trigger

Some pistols are made with clunky or heavy trigger pulls to prevent accidental discharge. Most gun manufacturers who market semiautomatic pistols in the country, even if they have external safeties, put a trigger weight on their pistols between 10-13 pounds. Other gun manufacturers simply don’t make great triggers, so people decide to upgrade. In addition to being easier to pull, the trigger case should also be uninterrupted and smooth to increase accuracy.  A trigger upgrade is a common modification created to help concealed carry guns to ensure that once the trigger is pulled, the gun opposes where it should.

Many gun stores offer trigger upgrades for a minimal price, which is usually less than $100. People who are familiar with the ins and outs of guns can also purchase a trigger upgrade kit and perform the task themselves. When it comes to triggering upgrades, it is important to purchase a kit that is of high quality.

Tactical Lights

A tactical light modification can give you a great advantage in many different situations. For example, if you are walking home in the dark or hear someone entering your home in the middle of the night, having lights on the end of your rifle will give you a great advantage in finding and identifying your target. Tactical lights come in different lengths and sizes depending on the size of your weapon. You can find a lot of lumens in a small package, so sometimes smaller is better, especially when it comes to concealed carry. You also need to make sure that your gun fits into a Kydex holster with strategic light switching. If not, there are plenty of Kydex holsters you can buy to accommodate the upgrade.

Magazine Extension

Many guns include extended magazine alternatives that promote the number of rounds in your gun. The Glock 19 is one of the most well-known concealed carry handguns with a variety of magazine extensions, bringing the standard 15-round capacity up to 17, 19, 24, 31, or 33 rounds. These magazine extensions are not legal in most countries, so you must know your regional laws. Also, some of these extensions are not practical for concealed carry but may be worth the investment for self-defense features.

Titanium Barrels

Titanium nitride is a ceramic coating that can be applied to various areas of the gun to increase component life protection. It protects against dirt buildup and is scratch-resistant. Many people use TiN on gun barrels, but it can also be applied to small components and rails. Many gun owners love TiN coating because it comes in a range of colors, such as gold/bronze, silver, aluminum, and black.

Lasers

Lasers are a popular modification for shoulder-fired guns, and many manufacturers provide a laser enhancement built into some models. A laser offers greater accuracy from a long distance and can be used day or night. For concealed carry, a laser can be immensely valuable if you’re in a scenario where you can’t shoot directly at your target. For example, you may be hiding behind a vehicle or around a corner from the person who is chasing you, and you also want to make sure that if he is chasing you, the trajectory of your bullet will hit him and not an unintended target nearby.

Lasers are great for making sure you are shooting at what you intend to shoot at, i.e. getting as close to the target’s holding area as possible. Lasers are usually green or red, depending on your taste.
