G22 Gen4 Rattles
thirtydaZe:
Not so much when the magazine isn't in the thing, but once it holstered, ready to go, on my person, its basically every step i take. Almost enough so where it seems to me it'd be obvious im carrying concealed.
A glock thing? It shoots excellent, so nothing mechanical going on.

What exactly is rattling? The slide-to-frame fit? The rounds in the magazine?
(If I don't fill my mags all the way up, they sometimes rattle. When full, they don't.)
Slide-to-frame fit should NOT rattle. Matter of fact, other than the above-mentioned not-full-magazine rattle, the Glock shouldn't be making any noise at all. (The only time you'd hear noise would be if you pulled off the slide and shook it strongly---you can hear the striker move in the channel.)
Where's the noise coming from?
thirtydaZe:
Seems like the magwell when the magazines locked in. Mag is fully loaded, and 1 chambered.

Do you have an external magwell added to the gun?

no i sure don't. it's kind of an oddity. with a fully loaded mag, i can shake the magazine with nothing to hear. i can then in turn shake the pistol without the mag installed, no rattle. once the mag is inserted it rattles. it's almost like the magazine is rocking back and forth in the magwell.
this isn't my video, but basically this is what's going on.
i have 150 rounds through it.
