so sexy it hurts |
I'm slowly transitioning away from my Gen3's completely. Sold a couple gen3 19's, 34, and 17. Added this cute little Gen4 19 the other day. Cerakoted Magpul FDE frame and slide. Added nightsights I took off of one of the gen3 19's I sold. Otherwise everything else is stock. Because the whole thing is cerakoted over a stock black 19, it's gonna get super-ugly as I abuse the shit out of it. "You have the right not to be killed..." The Clash, "Know Your Rights" | |||

I will never buy a Glock. It is a popular pistol. But never as good as Sig Sauer or as a H&K. Its a gun tjat is shooted by the snobs at my shooting association. I do not like snob girls nor snob guns. My list is H&K Sig Sauer Desert Eagle CZ Browning Colt. I could even buy a Beretta. I shoot over 10 Years. Over 2000 rounds a year. Believe me when I tell you I will never buy a Glock. | |||

We gonna get some oojima in this house! |
Get a ten 4 g17. Cut the bottom half off the medium grip and install the top half. Improves the grip angle like a grip force adapter without the added bulk. ----------------------------------------------------------- TCB all the time... | |||

Get on the fifty! |
Of those you listed you see the Glock as a snob gun? Maybe the "snobs" that "shooted" the Glocks just know something you don't. "Pickin' stones and pullin' teats is a hard way to make a living. But, sure as God's got sandals, it beats fightin' dudes with treasure trails." "We've been tricked, we've been backstabbed, and we've been quite possibly, bamboozled." | |||

Learn it, know it, live it |
^ Fixed that for ya.. Sorry to be the one to tell you, but you are one of the gun snobs.. I shoot over 20 years, that make me smarter. 2000 rounds is only two range trips for most of us. I've sold Sigs and an HK to buy more Glocks. You will buy a Glock, it will only be a matter of time. | |||

Sounds like you should start with a G19. Maybe a G34 after that. | |||

Lighten up and laugh |
The only fault I find with this thread is the title is singular. It's misleading | |||

So Glock shooters are snobs and Hk shooters are not? You think 2000 rounds a year is a lot? You are making friends here fast with stupidity I'll give you that allstar. What am I doing? I'm talking to an empty telephone | |||

I agree. No Glock fit me until I tried Gen3, and, really, they only fit my left hand decently, while being merely somewhat OK for my right hand. Gen4 is much better, and has the backstrap extensions to fill a wider range of hands. Better to try before buying, of course, if you can. I bought, on faith, and was rewarded. Regarding the trigger, I still dislike the Glock trigger for target accuracy, but it works well enough for practical accuracy at gunfighting distance. I will probably never shoot a Glock as well as a good 1911, or smooth medium or medium/large-fame revolver, but when shooting fast in "stress" training scenarios,I seem to shoot Glocks well enough, with some of my shots being placed well enough to amaze me. In "practical" conditions, I am shooting Glocks almost as well as a 1911 or revolver, while my Glocks offer me more shots before a reload, more shots in each reload, an accessory rail for a weapon-mounted light, and easier mounting of sight options. I can have, for example, one Glock with tritium sights, and another with a wider-notch rear sight and high-visibility, but non-tritium front sight. Both of these Glocks, together, will cost less than half the price of a premium 1911. Have Colts, will travel | |||

silence is acceptance |
Earlier this week I picked up a gen 4 Glock 23. I put some XS Big Dot sights on it last night. I'm going to the range to shoot it for the first time tomorrow. | |||

I thought the first G19 Gen. 3 might have been a fluke. It hasn't been shot too much these past 6 years or so, as I tend to shot my SIG's, 1911's and older S&W revolvers. Well this morning while looking for another P239 9mm I found a Lipsey's Vickers G19GF RTF2 in the case. After handling it and giving it a good look over, the gray frame grew on me and I said "I'll take it". Like the man said "You will buy a Glock". Now to get it to the range tomorrow.

Went over to the dark side and picked up a gen4 G19 yesterday. Local pawnshop had it with box and 3 mags for $399 so I couldn't really say no. My first pistol was a G17. I learned how to shoot a handgun with it and it fed every round I ever put through it. I can't believe it's taken me this long to get another | |||

I'm not a fan of the Gen 4s, but I don't think even I could have passed that deal up.. For $400, I could have sanded that aggressive grip down a tad.. Congrats... | |||

Ahhh, My first handgun purchase was a Glock 21 that I placed on layaway when I was 20 years old, picked it up on my 21st birthday. Have a 19 and a 35 right now with an all FDE 19 on layaway | |||

Sounds like someone has been ripping you off, bendable. Glocks intended for the commercial market come with two magazines. Glocks intended for law enforcement (known as 'Blue Label Glocks'), come with three magazines. ____________________________________________________ "I am your retribution." - Donald Trump, speech at CPAC, March 4, 2023 | |||
