Tis true, you did plant the seed that gnawed at my soul telling me my life would be but hollow and empty until I had one.

I had tried others but twas only a sip but did nothing to slake the thirst but now I have it an shall drink deeply from the fountain.

Maybe this is the place to ask.

Parabellum, weren't you a diehard SIG fan? What caused your switch to Glocks? Or were you on board with Glocks from the gitgo?

I prefer Gen1 and Gen 2 Glocks since I don't care for the finger grooves..
But even those can be removed.. Cool

I had a problem with both also. Once I figured out that you aim a Glock like you're pointing your finger at the target I got over the grip angle. For the second problem, dremel and a soldering iron. Cool

No, I'm not a diehard SIG fan, although I own many of their pistols and appreciate them for the fine handguns they are, and no, I wasn't on board with Glock from the get-go, although I was an early adopter.

A consistent trigger pull from first to last shot is what I need.

Thanks.

That was succinct!

Had a Glock 23, didn't care for .40 as much plus it's more expensive, so I traded it for a 228. I love it! But I do miss my glock. I'm looking to pick up a Glock 19 soon. A 228 and a Glock 19, probably the best two handguns for me.

Even though I traded the G23, the simplicity and grip of the glock is missed.

That is the same for me. It's one of the things I truly "need" for me. An attribute of my now forsaken P7s, and now an attribute of the worthy Glock 19 that replaced them.

Ditto. Just took my brand-new Gen 3 G19 to the range today for the first time...flawless...it will rotate duty with the G19 I picked up a couple of months back.

I love DA/SA handguns, 1911s, etc., but I shoot the G19 better than any other handgun I've tried so far.

This is the reason I favored DAK Sigs.
But after getting into 1911s, and then 3.5# trigger Glocks, I sold all my DAK Sigs.. Eek

I bought 2 as a 50th birthday present for myself - Gen 4 G19 & G26. No brass to the face yet, but I think I need to look into the different connectors. Apex spoiled me. Big Grin Wink

I bought my Gen 2 G17 for my own 50th birthday present.
I'm now looking for a Gen 1 or 2 G19 to replace my Gen 3 G19...

I run Lone Wolf 3.5 connectors in my Glocks with the stock springs.
Works very well...
