I'm getting closer... I picked up four Glock magazines last night. Big Grin

They're for my brother's G23, but the G-lust is getting stronger.

Hey, here's a thought: maybe when my brother pays up on what he owes me, I'll have enough for a G27! Cool




God bless America.

I have wanted a Glock 19 for years now. I've resisted. It's been hard.

I gave in to the Glock bug long ago. I own plenty of Sigs, a few HK's a Beretta and a couple Smiths, but for basic functionality, nothing beats the Glock IMO. It's the Ford pickup of handguns.

Took my G19 to the range earlier tonight. Pure Bliss...as if you needed any more encouragement. Smile

I have been wanting a Glock 19 for sometime and finally bought a nice G19 Gen 3 frame with NBIX coating. I had a Glcok 23 40 in the late 90's but did not like it. I took the 19 to the range yesterday to break it in with Federal 115 FMJ and Winchester 147 Gr JHP ammo. First shot was a FTF but no problems for the next 150 rds. I was in the black at 33ft but it does not shoot as tightly as my German sigs which all group within 2' at this distance. I need to get use to the Glock trigger and I'm not fond of the Glock rear outlined sight. I love the Sig's contrast post/dot the best. The Glock just needs some treaking but I do like it much better than the 23 so it is a keeper.

I currently only have 4 (17,21,26 and a 30/36 hybrid)... but more are going to happen.

I'm not a hoarder so I have sold some and now have three Gen4s (17, 21, 26). I really love the 4th Generation. The little tweaks make a big difference for me.

Waiting on a G34G4. Really want one.... badly.

Simply put, there is no other handgun I would prefer in my hands during a gunfight.

I think you mean 2". Grouping within 2' would send some of 'em off the target.

If someone gave me a Glock I wouldn't take it. Never liked them. I rather have/use a Sig,Colt or even a Beretta.

If someone gives you a Glock, you can pass that puppy on to me. I will happily take it.

I tell you guys, we are in the presence of greatness. Imagine the strength of character involved when someone wants to give you an item worth several hundred dollars, and you turn it down on principle. No strings attached. You don't have to do anything in exchange. We're just going to give you an item you could turn around and sell, and then do whatever you wish with the cash, but nay! Nay, I say!! They shan't! They won't! They cannot compromise their hatred for the Glorp, not even to turn it to their advantage!

I mean, that's...uhh...that's...something, isn't it? Razz

Call me weak of character, and lacking of any principles, but I for one would take the Glock and be very happy. I add to this I am not even a Glock fan, but I know what Glocks can and will do and that is excel in any environment, and do it in a manner that surpasses most. I will own a G19 someday just because I think everyone should, it’s like a rite of passage.

Yeah, good on you 21Bravo for standing up for your beliefs. No one's gonna be able to take that away from you, except you.

So I'm telling you you're gonna end up buying that Glock. Ain't no one gonna give you a free Glock.

I picked up another, a G4 G19 last friday and took it out today.

It was so boring. Fed and Fired every round perfectly, bullets hit the target. Yawn.

Exactly like how I want my carry gun to work. No fuss.
