You will buy a Glock

Sevo1967You will buy a Glock
Ok, I never thought I'd buy another, but I traded the P250 for a Gen4 G19. I still love my Walther and won't part with it, but it's too hard to find parts and accessories.
Now I can walk into any gun shop in the USA and find parts, magazines, holsters etc. It still feels a bit large in my hands, so we'll see how it shoots and decide about grip reduction after that. (Maybe some xs sights too).
So once again Para was right, I did buy a Glock.

velvetshnitzI have bought 3 glocks over the years. And i can never bear to keep them. It's not a sig thing, or a glock thing, or an HK thing it's a I like metal frames thing. BUT i will say i secretly do want a 26. but i know i'll just sell/trade it.

PsychobastardI
do prefer the G19\G23 size... but it looks like I am going to try and pick up TWO of the G22's. Stupid to spend that much cash right now... but also stupid not to get more than one when they're that cheap.
And granted, they're not a "pretty" gun butlet's be honest, the
Classic Sigs (especially the P228 which resembles a 2x4 with a barrel sticking out one end) also have their own functional ugliness. That was one of the things that got me wanting one in the first place.
But a 2nd Gen Glock 23 was my very first handgun.

But you'll never admit it. You'll live a closeted life and die a bitter old man.
It doesn't have to be like that, y'know. Just own up and be free.
Now I'm depressed.

I'm depressed because of your precience (I shouldn't use $20 words without spellckeck...) --- you see, I just bought a G26 today to replaced my new Pm9.

LateckJust saw this thread.
I traded my Glock of 20 years in on a new SIG!
I saw the light!

Lateck,
PS: I can't really put Glock down, they are good guns and at the time I could not afford SIG.
P220R-45-EQ, P226R-40, P229R-9-SCT, P239-357-SAS2B, P365-9-BXR3 plus some Ruger's.

wrt81None for me yet, but for some reason I do want one eventually...just because.

MonkyboyI resisted the temptation for the longest time, then was offered a deal on a G-23 I couldn't refuse. I love it. Got its bigger a G-35. Reliable, easy to maintain, with accessories everywhere. Glock is good

streamfisherI've been watching tHis post for a long time and never chimed in but I think it's time, I have purchased three glocks in the past 3 years and traded all of them,every one of the glocks were reliable out of the box! After having problems with 2 of the guns I swaped for I finally got the picture, Glocks work!. I just purchased a Glock 26'second time' and plan on keeping it.

They work. The shoot right where you point them. They fit my odd sized hands.
I got another Glock 19 this week. My first one was a Gen 3 G19. I replaced it with a G19 RTF. Have not shoot it yet but I it nice to be back in black!! Will put new sights on it and that is it.

Sig M11This did it for me...
http://www.theprepared.com/ind...tent&task=view&id=90The 21 is a great pistol.

Ken V.I bought a G17 just about 20 years ago because the P226 was back ordered at the local dealer. It did not feel right compared to my Hi-Power so I sold it and bought a P229-357. Last year after running into the G22 in LE circles alot, I bought one. Now for whatever reason I can shoot it as good as my Sigs. I now own three Glocks (and four Sigs) and would carry either without preference- both are damn fine pistols.

Chem GeekGot my new G19 in olive drab this weekend, definitely a keeper. Works great, light weight and fits my hand nicely.
You
will get a Glock.

Thanks for the info. I am definitely going to order some up for my Gen3 G19, and my pending Gen4 G23.

nojoyAs soon as the Gen 4 G35 comes out I am getting one-then convert it to shoot 357sig. I want to see what kind of velocity I will get with some 125gr Doubletap ammo out of her; it will be scary

checkenbachI bought a G34 on Saturday.
I feel sooo dirty.
