Okay, I finally bought a Glock (having divested myself of theme years ago). G40 for hunting, with 9x25, .40 conversion barrels from Bar-Sto. The industry seems to have left Glock to own the double stack 10mm market. And Bar-Sto wouldn't make a 9x25 conversion for my P220/10.

Still despise the trigger. But 15+ rounds for pigs with Lehigh or CEB penetrators is an awesome thing. Almost but not quite as good as my 7.5 FK BRNO

It Happened again.. Glock 19X
Two months back it was a S&W SD9 FDE
And now a M18 SIG Sauer is Talking
It's a Sickness
And then there's those M&P AR-15s, Ruger AC556s, SR22 10/22, AKM, SKSs Krinkovs + My Hk Addiction
Picked up a fraternal twin pair of Hk USP Compact 40/357s

Here's the G19X & S&W SD9 FDE
HUGE Photos

Glock does a very good version of FDE in my opinion. I think only FN does as good if not better with FDE. The set up with the FDE holster is sweet

Thanks longjohn
I saw one of my Honey Holes has a M18 for $499
I might stop & see it tomorrow as they also have a few rifles too

You fellas live in the desert, do ya?

Lol, I know it makes no sense. I just have some attraction to FDE. I think that its because for years the only choice was black, with maybe a choice of stainless or nickel version of a particular model. The FDE thing kind of burst on to the scene and I just got hooked.

It funny you should say that. When the FDE craze really got into full swing all I could think is God help us if we go to war with Canada.

Canada?
Guess we'll need the Long Slide & Just shoot across the River HaHa!!
Carries better than you would think
This a Gen 3 Glock 24

Need to figure out how to make the photos smaller for the Sigform
Still can't figure out how to ad an avatar
I tried a 60X60 pixel photo but it wouldn't work either

@Beretta92, if you don't mind me asking, who is that Holster brand?

Does this count?

Not a Glock slide, barrel, frame, et cetera, so, no.

Yep, you all were right. You can't just buy one Glock. Started with a 43, then it was a 20, and the newest addition is a 43X. Next up, 17L if I can find one. All within the last year. I never should have found this place.

Since you're new around here, and you probably didn't read the waiver, I'll give you a quick hint-
You will buy a Glock

A revival of the Watch thread

^ don't go there! It's going to cost you a lot of money in the long run

This thread alone, I'm probably eight maybe nine Glocks in... Plus accessories and ammo.
That's a lot of fun! err, uuhh, Money.
(Worth every penny!)

Of course I buy the two calibers that I didn't have. But you're right, add up the ammo and extra magazines and this becomes an expensive hobby.

I did buy a Glock... finally for what Glocks should have been worth all the time. $299 it's called a Dagger..Glocks have always been overpriced. I've shot it a lot and it's as good as any Glock I've ever owned and better than the Gen4's I purchased when they first came out and had tons of problems with both of them... I sold em.

How good it is a $299 Glock!!!

Wait until you like the gun enough to use it as your EDC!
Holster or two, or three...
A good belt
magazine holder
Self defense ammo


Then comes the "OOOHHH! Look at that one!"
Next thing you know, there's a G-19 in your safe. You're looking for the G-17L? "Oh, there's a G-34!" And it's almost the same... So you buy it.
What happens when you go to that gun store a few weeks later for ammo? Yup, there's a G-17L sitting in the case.


Don't go asking around here the "should I buy it?" The answer is almost always "Yes!"

It's an addiction
(And we're a bunch of enablers)

On days that arthritis compromises my shooting hand I decided to get another .380. I figured what the heck I still have some ammo (both FMJ and HP). Off to my LGS/Range I go. I rented several 9mm kurtz pistols and liked the G42 the best.

Some days I am not comfortable shooting my G43X or P239 so "say hello to my little friend"

BTW although I am preaching to many in the choir arthritis sucks.

The Glock 42 is a VERY soft shooting pistol. Good choice!
