StradmanWhat’s next?
Happy new year everyone,
I have a dilemma and ask for everyone’s opinion.
I have a glock 23 that I haven’t shot for several years and it’s my only 40. Having a fair amount of 40 cal ammo and extra mags there’s a part of me that says I should trade it in and get another 40 although I shoot 9mm almost exclusively.I currently carry a p225A1. I’m also experiencing sig gas.I do realize I don’t need another gun but the desire is there. The next could go into the carry rotation or relegated to IDPA or just be for the pleasure of owning it.non trolling opinions appreciated.

creslinWhat other guns do you have?
That might help us find a gap of what you're missing

dsietsI would get a 9mm barrel for it w/ serious consideration of a .357 barrel.
What you have is the perfect G19 w/ the option of bigger cal. and super hot 9mm. in .357sig.

10-7 leoIf you have a weapon you like to shoot in that caliber, keep the ammo and the weapon.
If you have a weapon you would like to get in that caliber, keep the ammo and sell the rest.
If you don't have either, sell it all.
I just went through this. Sold the pistol and ammo I didn't want and kept the pistols I wanted and the ammo for them. My carry and practice pistols are in another caliber.

FredwardFWIW, it's a bad time to be selling or trading a Glock, especially in 40. Gen 5's are out, and new models, so everyone is dumping them. Also, 40 has lost favor, many PD's are going back to 9mm. I'd keep it, at least until the ammo is gone. The caliber conversions are a good idea, too.

.38supersigA conversion barrel would be the way to go or you can find a 9mm upper and swap them out as the need arises.
Glocks and Desert Eagles are just about the most versatile firearms ever made. Think of them as Legos with bullets.
