Next trip to the local shop/range I may try the G19 and G23. I feel the need (given the state of the world)for something more portable than the 21. | |||

You might consider a G30S, with the emphasis on the 'S'. It is a essentially a G30SF frame with a thinner G36 slide. Very close to the size of a G19/G23/G32 (AKA compact). Plus you can carry a G21 mag as a spare.  Pics with a pearce ext on the G30S. G30S vs a Gen 2 G19....     A big difference in the 'business' end.   Plus a 9rd mag makes it even more concealable.   10 - 15 yards..   | |||

Nice. A 30s may very well be my next Glock. Great for LEOSA carry in restricted magazine capacity states. If I can only carry eleven rounds in my pistol, I prefer those that begin with "4".This message has been edited. Last edited by: parabellum, | |||

Just bought a G4 19 Gray. No idea why. Maybe because it was gray.....who T.F. knows. Should keep me busy over the holidays with Ameriglo night sights, Vickers mag release, ext. slide stop, Talon Grips, .25 trigger job, undercut trigger guard, etc. Only have three other 19's - 2, 3, & 4....but none are gray! ---------------------------------------- “The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.” | |||

Nice, Elde. Enjoy it. I pick mine up tomorrow. That's basically why I bought it. A gen 2, gen 3 LAV RTF2 in FDE and a gray gen 4 to follow just seemed to make sense. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

Thanks 220 Smudge: that's exactly what I need....encouragement! Hope your looking as forward to yours as much as I am to mine! Congrats and Merry Christmas, sir. ---------------------------------------- “The further a society drifts from truth, the more it will hate those who speak it.” | |||

Well, cheers and Merry Christmas to you too, sir! Thanks, I'm pretty excited to pick it up. I missed out on the first order to hit my local but I managed to snag one on their next go-round. If I'm honest, and it runs as reliably as the others, it will likely become a quick favorite of the herd. The factory beavertail was a selling point, even though I like how the Gen 4 feels without any backstrap. ______________________________________________ “There are plenty of good reasons for fighting, but no good reason ever to hate without reservation, to imagine that God Almighty Himself hates with you, too.” | |||

That seems like a natural progression.. | |||

have now added an extra 3 mags, a Comp-Tac MTAC for carry, a Boraii eagle pocket holster (just in case I feel the urge), Ameriglo Spartan tritium sights, a $0.25 trigger job, glock 3.5 pound connector, a smooth G17 trigger, and a bunch of Gold Dot +P 124 grain ammo. I really like the way the trigger now feels. Still basically getting used to it, with ~250 rounds total through it. Comfortable enough with it to put the P229 back in the safe, and put the G26 into EDC, along with two extra mags in pocket. 20 rounds this morning at 10 yards - might need to tap the rear sight a hair to the right...

Alas, the 30 Gen 4 bites my pinkie; but the gap between frame and mag appears much less with the 9 rounder than the 10. I'll try another model or two; but if the shop is willing to let me try the Pearce adapted on their rental 30 I'll order one or two to try the 30 again. Something between my P290 and SP2022 would be just about right... | |||

Sounds like the p30sk might be goldilocks for you Rat | |||

Maybe..something with a 3.5" or so barrel. I have an older .40 (Mauser M2) which is about right except it is very heavy. The FN compact in .40 could be a winner too; I have one of the regular size FNX models and the mags are interchangeable. But I will look over the baby Glocks as their frame molding front piece covers that gap that bites me on the model 30s. | |||

Bought another 19 today, this makes Glock number 7. It has a funky serial number too, makes me think of Obama if only had a O. BAHM-XXX Glock pokes fun at Barry, too funny! David W. Rather fail with honor than succeed by fraud. -Sophocles | |||

I have yet had the urge to buy a Glock......... and never will. Just bought a new gun, no glock, Sig as in SigForum. P224 Extreme.  | |||

^ Carries a 40cal..  Has more pencils than he knows what to do with.. Has G-10 grips because he secretly wants a polymer framed pistol.  Enough said.. I used to be a Sig snob, but I finally caught the Gaston fever and came to my senses.. | |||

Two months after making the big switch, in duty pistols, from .40 SIG P229R DAK to 9mm Gen4 G17, I still believe I made the right choice, for me. The lesser muzzle flip and recoil makes qual and training fun again, for my aging hands, and the Gen4 grip frame allows a very secure grip, better than the P229, or the Gen3 Glocks I had used before switching to SIG in 2004. Actually, a Gen3 G17 is fine for my left hand, but not so wonderful for my formerly-stronger, but now-weaker right hand. A Gen4 Glock is the best ambidextrous pistol I have found, for my hands. Burglars have been very active in my patrol area, lately, so I have been searching structures and areas often. A weapon that is nicely secure, in my grasp, is comforting.
