The Ultimate Home Defense Glock Build Part 2: Silent but Deadly

By Jim Grant

U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- In part one of this series, we took a standard 9mm Glock, and kitted it out specifically for home defense. For part two, we’ll be starting with something a little more modern, and spending extra to crank it to eleven.

Before delving into the details of all the components, we need to quickly reference part one’s guidelines for upgrades. The four guiding principles of home defense/self-defense upgrades are as follows

• Reliability – Any attachment or replacement part cannot impede or reduce the reliability of the handgun.
• Durability – None of the replacement components can be more delicate, or substantially less durable than the original factory parts.
• Safety – Any upgrade must not make the weapon unsafe, or compromise existing safety features.
• Efficacy – Nothing added to the gun can objective reduce its effectiveness. So no .22lr caliber conversions, and no race-gun super soft hand-loads.

With that out of the way, let’s dive into the not-so-budget-friendly Ultimate Home Defense Glock Build: Part 2.
