Well guys I have to go by the gun shop and look one last time, but I will be purchasing either a Witness Limited Pro or a G20 Gen4.

I have my mind made up on the Witness cause I don't like polymer pistols, but I want to give the Glock one last feel before I discount it.

Decision made and ordered.

I called my FFL this morning on the way home from work and was talking 10mm with him and he offered for me to come by his house and shoot his 4 with his ammo. Why not?

I shot a EAA Witness Steel, a Kimber TLE, a G20SF, and a G29SF. I was shooting his handloads with Nosler 180 grain hollow points over I believe Blue Dot and Longshot. Anyway, I like the G20SF the best so I asked him to order me a Lipsey's FDE G20 Gen 4. It is the one with both frame and slide in FDE. I will put it on layaway and get it when it is paid off. $650 plus tax.

Congrats!  I very much like my Glock 20SF.  On my hip right now in fact.

Winning!!

Thanks guys!

I am going to get a Blackhawk Serpa belt holster I believe.

I know I want a Diamond D Guides Choice for woods carry.

I will also be looking into a Galco Miami shoulder holster should I feel the need to conceal it and 46 rounds of awesome.

I guess Steel and with a safety wasn't really on the list after all.

It was, but I liked the Glock shooting them all.

That's pretty key in the list of haves. Depending on what you find out with it shooting upper end ammo (or just as a precaution) you might want to swap the barrel for one with better support.

The Glock OEM barrel is fine, with any factory ammo. The worst that may happen is some of the brass may not be (safely) reloaded (due to smiles). This is only a problem for those who collect the brass for reloading or trading. Any load pushed beyond the limits will KB! any pistol or barrel, and the Glock is not any "weaker" than the rest. In fact, the generous Glock chamber and throat actually allows for a pressure safety margin the tighter, match-type barrels don't have. If you are a competent handloader, you control that factor and should know to stop well before that becomes a factor. If you are a handloader and routinely push max pressure or shoot Underwood or other boutique "full power" ammo that comes with a "fully supported chamber" disclaimer, an aftermarket barrel may be a good idea. Still, if they don't KB! your aftermarket barrel, they won't in the Glock barrel.

I fully intend to get a Lone Wolf barrel.

I will eventually get a 4.6" and 6.375" threaded from them.

First order of business is a holster and then a set of adjustable night sights.

Are the Glock barrels good with lead now too? I know he mentioned hunting and might go with a hardcast if that's one of the goals.

Not according to Glock. Same warning. However, I and nearly everyone I know shoot lead through the OEM barrels, and I haven't heard of an actual incident since 1980-something. And then, it was only with the first Gen 9mm and only one or two notable incidents. Nowadays, plated and coated bullets are the same price or cheaper than lead, so there's no advantage unless you cast/swage your own. Properly sized and lubed lead bullets can eliminate leading, completely.

Properly sized is the key, and is difficult as Glock barrels slug large.  Unless you cast your own, you won't find them big enough.  I need .403" minimum.

I will not be shooting lead in the stock barrel.

Just me thoughts, plus I wanted to save you a buck or two. I would keep and carry the Glock 4.6" and buy 1 6.375" barrel for the cool factor and velocity gain. Good luck and great choice on the Glock. I have 2 10mm Glocks and 2 10mm Witness pistols. Love all of 'em.
