You will buy a Glock
In the past three weeks I sold my Glock 22 & 26......and also my Shield. All three of them are outstanding and reliable handguns. Just time to switch it up. Bought my first Sig (320 x-compact) and love it. Thinking about getting a 365 too...but will probably wait until it gets closer to the holidays. As far a Glocks go...I will never have anything negative to say about them. All the hype about “you can feed them anything” is absolutely true. If I ever buy another, it will be a Glock 19. If I would have bought a 19 instead of the 22, I would have kept it. There was a time when you couldn’t have paid me to own one.....then one day, something just clicked.

It's an endless cycle: Glock, Sig, Glock, Sig. It is not madness I tell you.

Hi. I'm one of those who emphatically stated I would never buy a Glock. I really didn't want to like them, swore I'd never have anything to do with one and all that. Then I shot one at a range trip and that was it. I have since sold every Sig Sauer I owned and replaced them with Glocks. I've bought seven since then, four of them G19's of various generations and frame colors. Sometime in the next year or so, I'd like to add a G20 just because, a G45 for a nighstand gun, a G48 for summer carry, and I'm always on the lookout for a good deal on a Gen 1 17L.

See? I stopped fighting it and just accepted what comes naturally to me and I'm so much happier.

there was a Cz p-01 that has been haunting me since. May just pick that up on the impulse and satisfy the itch until the Glock inventory returns to normal.

I've not known anyone that has regretted buying any CZ ... probably one of the most over looked pistols on the market.


If you really want something you'll find a way ...
... if you don't you'll find an excuse.

I'm really not a "kid" anymore ... but I haven't grown up yet either Wink

I love my Glock 19! Although I’m stuck carrying a G23 most of the time, due to work. I’ve bought several Glocks over the years, I’ll buy more in the coming years, but the 19 is still my favorite.

I've been a Glock fan since the 80's. Even after the internet became popular and I learned that terrorists use them because they don't set off metal detectors, they blow up, they have terrible triggers, the have terrible sights, the grip angle is totally unnatural, and few other negatives, mine have always done everything I could expect a handgun to do.

I did, in fact, buy a Glock. It was a Glock 33 and I sold it not long after. The only other time I have shot a Glock was last week on a range trip. It was the 42, brought by my brother, and the only non-Sig in the rotation that day. I did not shoot it well at all.

I can say with conviction, I will never buy another Glock Big Grin

You will sell a Glock

I've bought a few Glocks over the years & am about to clear the harrem of them all..
Sold my Glock 26.4 & 24.3 this week..
I am now in the market for a SIG again..
P365 P320C P250..
Want a P365 but still might end up with a Glock 43 in the end..
This all started by Me liking the carry feel of My then M&P Shield 9mm 2.0 over my Glock 26..
Then my youngest Son got a M&P Shield 380 EZ
That's had me looking hard at the Springfield Hellcat & SIG Sauer P365s now..

Liking the slim feel of what will be my next carry gun.. Goodbye Glock26 You Fat Pig..

I did buy a Glock, so I did fulfill the prophecy. I am not sure why my not liking it is not a valid contribution....the title said I would buy one, not that I had to like it Razz

ETA, well crap...apparently I was supposed to like it....
