After you have owned a Glock, hopefully you will find a PPQ and be happier!  | |||

Move to the free states while there is still time!! Just spent 1 1/2 weeks in SoCal, longest time I've spent back there since moving away. OMG I'm so glad I don't live there any more.

Happier about what? The Glock fits my needs perfectly, why look elsewhere??????? | |||

Don't bother. He doesn't know what he wants. Here's his other post in this thread from a while three and a half months ago: Uh huh. I hope he doesn't try to change wives as often as he changes his mind on handguns. What's it gonna be in another three months?  | |||

Three months ago I hadn't handled a PPQ. So you have never changed your mind about anything or found something you like better? I find that hard to believe.  | |||

Of course I have, but I'm not nearly as fickle as you appear to be. Let us know in the Fall what you think is the greatest. No doubt it will make you even happier. | |||

Meh you never know! I have been a 1911 fan for 30 + years. This is the FIRST polymer pistol that has a trigger I MAY like as well or better. When I typed those words about a G19 I knew it wasn't perfect for ME but it was/is IMO, a great pistol with a NEAR perfect size for all around use. The PPQ (for me) fixed everything I would have wanted in the Glock. I apologize for posting twice in this thread with a different point of view. I guess we should all stop looking at any new pistols now as we should already know what we want and should grow no further..... | |||

Well...I've been there and done that. I've read about all sorts of pistols and handled all sorts of pistols, shot all sorts of pistols, owned them, fondled them, and gave much thought to the matter of which of them I should employ. For the rest of my life (another 20 or 25 years if I'm fortunate), the Glock will be my primary defensive handgun. So now I can concentrate on shooting well, which is the point, yes? But, of course, people need to search until they find the best fit, and they will if they're lucky. | |||

I have succumbed. Just brought home a G26 Gen4. I have tried and tried to carry my much-loved P239 .40, but with my body shape, bad back, etc, it is just a little too heavy. So, at 9 oz. lighter, it's G26's turn. I try to love them all equally.. "Strange days have found us, strange days have tracked us down." JM | |||

Not only that but now I feel free to just enjoy and appreciate other pistols just for the fun of it. Just enjoy them for being cool or interesting instead of constantly weighing in my mind which is "better". __________________________ They keep saying they just want "sensible gun laws" but they hold up countries where they are banned and confiscated as their ideal. Antis thinks guns are only good for killing people. I think guns are good for self defense. So I'm the one with the "problem"? The Bill of Rights affirms the Rights of the Individual Not the State.

^ Those are both really good points and have been my experiences as well. I'd like to a P228 again for range shooting. Someday I will. I'm still in the lookout for a Gen 2 G19 as pictured above. I really like my Gen 3 G19, just not very fond of those finger grooves.. | |||

ok, got me again! Finally got a chance to post a pick of my new G22 Gen4. Here she is, unmolested... Put a few hundred rounds through it, and I gotta say that I do see a difference with the dual recoil spring system. Definitely less "sharp". Since that pic, I've put on a Dawson .105 x.170 front fiber optic, adjustable Glock rear, Ghost Rocket connector and springs. The pistol is really a great shooter.  | |||

After much contemplation, I now believe that Para actually titled this magnificent thread incorrectly.... Instead of "You will buy "a" Glock", I believe now that it should have been titled "You will buy "many" Glocks".... I sold a gen4 G19 and ended up with a leftover (15) round magazine, so I bought a gen3 G19 from 2004 with a very low round count.     Note the extractor pics.... For an (8) year old pistol, even with a low round count, that extractor shows almost no wear. My newer Glock pistols all showed nearly immediate wear to the extractor. "Indecision may, or may not, be my problem!" | |||

Well a Glock looks like any other Glock... except when you have a big greasy finger print on your's making it completely original. LOL!!! | |||

That made me LOL a little. I rather like the attitude given..  That phrase will now be added to my vocabulary and used often..  | |||
