Compatibility questions arise constantly for anyone shopping for pistol accessories, especially with a platform like the Ruger RXM. Whether you already own an older-gen Glock 19 or you're building out an RXM for the first time, knowing what actually fits and what doesn't makes shopping a lot less complicated. TL;DR Many parts built for the Glock 19 also fit the Ruger RXM, since the RXM shares its platform with Gen 1 to 3 Glock 19 models. Not every accessory is a perfect crossover, so checking generation and fitment before buying still matters. With Glock now on its sixth generation, plenty of parts will not drop straight onto an RXM frame. A few well-chosen parts make more of a difference than a long list of unrelated upgrades. Do Glock 19 Parts Fit the Ruger RXM? Many of them do. The Ruger RXM is built on the Gen 1 to 3 Glock 19 platform, so a number of parts designed for those generations of G19 carry over directly. This includes items like slide back plates. That crossover ...

Fall hunting season is underway in parts of the country. If you’re getting ready for your own hunting trip in the coming weeks, it’s time to hone your skills with a trip (or a few) to the range. And if you’re already doing that, good on you! Sharpening your skills with a few range sessions before a hunting trip can make a real difference when you’re in the thick of it. It’s also a great time to refresh your firearms with everything from rifle to Glock parts & accessories online, so you can get things dialed in while you’re at the range.  Bring More Than Your Hunting Rifle Many hunters focus their pre-season range prep on the rifles they plan to use. But bringing pistols along makes sense, too. Why not make the most of your range time by putting several of your firearms through their paces?  You get a clear sense of how each gun handles, what feels right, and what might need attention before you're out in the field. Take Note of What Needs Attention As you run throug...

Many Glock owners take pride in their handgun of choice. Whether it’s a G17 or a G43X, many folks rely on their Glock for everyday carry, at the range, and in many other situations. It’s also the kind of handgun you can personalize by swapping stock components for high-quality aftermarket Glock parts that offer a range of benefits, including giving your Glock of choice a pop of color. Here are five parts to consider.  TL; DR New rear slide cover plates are simple, effective aesthetic upgrades. Extended magazine releases add subtle pops of color and are highly practical. A new slide brings it all together with a major aesthetic and functional overhaul. Start Small with Rear Slide Cover Plates If you want to start with a simple aesthetic upgrade, start with the rear slide cover plates. These are available across several Glock models and come in a wide range of colors and styles. They’re also among the customized Glock accessories you can get with personalized laser engraving. Ex...

The fall gun range season is upon us! As we shift into fall, now’s a great time to ask the age-old question: Is your handgun setup where you want it?  Now’s the time to take a hard look at any or all the handguns you run at the range to determine whether there are any upgrades you want to make. Here are three main considerations to keep in mind.  The Functionality of Your Handgun  One of the most direct ways to expand what a handgun can do on the range is to start with the barrel. A threaded barrel allows for muzzle attachments like compensators, which redirect gas to help manage muzzle rise during rapid-fire strings.  For SIG P365 owners, a P365 threaded barrel , including those with updated feed ramps (versus stock), is one of the more functional upgrades available. Just take note of your local and state regulations on threaded barrels (and muzzle devices) before adding one to your setup. How Your Handgun Handles A guide rod upgrade is one of those changes tha...

Suppressor talk has been showing up everywhere lately, whether it's at the range, in forums, or in conversations that used to skip right past the topic. Some of that comes down to simple economics. A change in federal tax law took effect at the start of 2026, resetting one of the biggest barriers that had kept casual owners out of the conversation. It's part of a broader pattern too, since gun owners chasing one upgrade, like a threaded barrel, are often the same ones browsing custom Glock 43X accessories or refining the rest of a build at the same time. TL;DR A federal tax law change eliminated the $200 fee once required to legally register a suppressor, effective January 1, 2026. Suppressor-related paperwork filings climbed sharply once the change took effect, a real shift in demand. A threaded barrel is the practical first step, since a pistol needs one before a suppressor can attach. Suppressor legality still varies by state, so confirming local regulations matters before ...

Many gun owners have at least one pistol that spends more time in the safe than at the range. This usually happens when you get a shiny new handgun. However, with a little attention, a sidelined handgun can earn its place back in the rotation.  Browsing aftermarket Glock accessories and parts, along with parts for any makes and models you run (or used to run), is a good first step toward deciding what to do next.  Take a Hard Look at the Parts, Old and New Sometimes a handgun sits in the safe because a worn or damaged part needs replacing. A recoil spring that has logged a lot of rounds, an overused trigger mechanism, or a dented magazine (and you only had the one).  In many cases, old parts can easily be swapped for new ones to essentially restore the gun's functionality. Sourcing custom Glock 43X accessories and replacement parts for other handguns is straightforward once you know what you're looking for. Upgrade What's Already There If the components are solid...
