I used to disregard Glocks

I still hate Glocks, but only because they just do not seem to make a model that feels comfortable in my hands. I mean their prices are extremely good, especially on 10mm's. But as long as a 1911 just feels so much more comfortable in my hands, that's what I keep buying.

Now if Gloock Made something that looked like this..... ;)

Some people think I'm paranoid because I have so many guns. With all my guns, what do I have to be paranoid about?

I too used to not concern myself with Glocks. I was always a 1911 and Sig shooter.

My first Glock was a G19 bought ten years ago and it's still with me and used as a CCW piece on occasion. MY GF has a G19 as does my brother-in-law, and a handful of friends.

The second is the Glock20SF. Still getting used to the pistol and enjoying it.

All of my pistols are SHTF guns that I feel are reliable and good to go. But the two that I can pick up and feel 100% TOTALLY sure of every round firing...

The Glock 19 and my Sig P226 9mm.

Glocks do rock!

I'll just continue to disregard them until I can pick one up and it feels comfortable and natural in my hand. So far I haven't.

I made the "switch" to plastic some 16-17 years ago. I will not give up my 1911's but I carry a Glock or clock copy more often than any other.

Really like my new G29, it will be my winter carry gun. my Shield 40 is just too slim, trim and light for summer carry. Easily concealable in a T shirt and a IMB holster.

My G20 is a favorite, my G23 has been a faithful companion for better then 15 years. I have a G19 for my wife.

Here is my wifes G19



Here is my G20



Here is my G23



Here is a couple 45's.





Here is two mags from the G23 as fast as I could fire them at 10 yards.



Need to go threw these drills with the Shield and G29.

I believe comfort is paramount when choosing a handgun....triggers, sights and such can be changed/ upgraded.  That being said, I have huge hands and the double stack glock 20 fits perfectly.  I have shot quite a few handguns with an open mind.... I am most accurate with double stack Glocks. 

I can appreciate not liking a particular gun for the way it feels.... Thankfully we have a lot of great choices

Bought my first Glock, a Gen 2 G23, in 1994. Now I own six.

I will say, they take a bit of getting used to, especially from being trained on a P7M8.

The two handguns I train with now most are my issued Sig 229 and my two G20's (Gen 3 SF and Gen 4).

Simply said, Glocks are excellent.

It's not the "plastic" that bothers me, it's not the fact they are striker fired. It's the way a Glock feels in my small short fingered hand. A 1911 just feels more natural to me. It's just a matter of personal choice. I don't run around saying a 1911 is better than any Glock. I just say I am more comfortable with a 1911.

Although I DO like this t-shirt!  ;)

I have both the 20 and 29 , both gen 4. I prefer the 29, it conceals like my M&P 40C but has more oomph in the event i run into a black bear. I may actually sell the 20.

No no no you keep both we do not sell 10mm never ever sell a 10mm....!!!!!!
