Your Walter is a fun gun to shoot. I shot my uncles and it's an original. It's got the Nazi eagle engraved into it, along with the holster, and nazi engraved magazines. but for me the slide never really made it back into position to shoot after you fired it. It was lubed to much

Someone commented that shooting a light trigger masks poor technique and that hit home because I have that nice 2011 up above... and it shoots great, I got a lot better with it and have been shooting a lot more. But that comment stuck with me and they had a point so I started taking my home defense Glock 19 to the range every time instead of just once in a while... starting shooting 50-100 rounds per session with that heavy crappy Glock trigger and slowly made progress. I'll never shoot it as well as the gamer pistol but it really helped me to dig in and work on learning how to shoot the Glock, and it helped me shoot the race pistol better too.

So today I started pimping it out lol. I know not to put money into Glocks but the Taran G19 carry magwell really does improve the grip for me. I have XL hands and was using the large beavertail backstrap but tried it without any backstrap and found I can grip it better, which surprised me. The stapling is kind of like the Taran custom Glocks, not quite as skillful but not embarrassed by it. Pretty happy with it right now.

Going to add a Vickers mag release (cheap) not sure if I will mess with the trigger, I would like it cleaner and shorter. To me there is a too much take up and a gritty break.

Some people will simply swap the connector for a fancy-brand part on the Glock trigger and that improves them, others swear by breaking them in with 5000 rounds ;-p

I since added an Apex trigger, the whole kit, and it is smoother, less take up, shorter reset, still not too light. And a flatter blade which I like. But the truth is that I'm lazy and I do not understand the finer aspects of triggers so paying $130 or whatever for something that is well reviewed from a respectable company/gunsmith is worth to me.

But yeah there is a sneaking suspicion that a few 50-cent springs and a few minutes with a pocket stone could get me the same thing.

Nah, those would make the grip even thicker. I'm trying to slim it up a bit with the ones I ordered. Besides I'm not a big fan of lasergrips in general, for me if I'm going to use a laser, I'll put it on the rail, YMMV.
