Dont ditch your Glock just yet...

[Derek]

Oh hell naw. I'll give up the ole lady before I give up my glock.

Facts

Nobody has mentioned the grip area on the non glocks. Is it good or was he just spouting nonsense?

I have medium size hands and use the regular 365 grip module on an XL slide. I run that grip for a little better concealment for work and off-duty carry. I use the 10 round mag with pinky extension. I don’t have the grip issue he explains.
I think it’s the way he holds the gun, but who knows.

But they’re ugly as hell, ...

Like I've posted in similar threads in the past... Glocks are like an ugly chick at closing time, ready to go and won't disappoint.

I switched from a G19 to a SIG M11 for a little while and went back to the Glock. Shoot what works and what feels good to you. The SIG was an amazing gun but the Glock was just more familiar and comfortable, so I went back.

I'm just not a flavor of the month gun owner. I own, use, and carry Glocks primarily; sometimes a S&W J-frame but typically Glocks (19, 43X).

I guess I just see the 'cost' of switching carry firearms. New gun. New night sights. New holster / magazine carriers. Couple hundred rounds of FMJs, at least 50 JHPs to test the new gun out. More magazines (6 is my minimum - 3 for carry, 3 for training / range use). All to see if something is 'better' than what I currently use - which I simply see as a tool.

Then again, I don't have to sell guns to pay for vehicle repairs, rent, or other bills.

That's why most people don't buy them.. add in "wife won't let me because balls were clipped at ceremony", baby momma needs that child support money..

Well, from what I see, a lotta people do buy them, then they sell them...

I just make wise use of my funds and see the toilet bowl of "new carry gun" every 3-6 months as a waste of time and money. Money which is better spent on AR-10s, ammunition, reloading supplies, Colt SAAs, Winchester lever actions, NF scopes, Aimpoint RDS, suppressors.

You know, stuff like that...

the proper accessories can triple the value of a gun collection, if not more than that....

you might only have 1-2 guns of one caliber, but if you have 12,000 rounds for them,....

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

In my view the Glock and variations are auto loading revolvers without the extra parts and more pews!

We as Consumers get hung up on shiny and new and cool. Your lawnmower motor is nothing to look at but it does the job. It should always be function over form.
Come to the darkside.... cast away your kimber...

I think Glocks are beautiful... so much that I just bought a G35 MOS... will put a FDE Leupold DPP and FDE TLR-VIR II on it... how could that possibly be considered ugly?

This tops off my quest to have night-capable long-slide MOS Glocks in all available chamberings as I already have the G34, G40, and G41.

Carry what you’re comfortable carrying, glocks require less maintenance than most pistols . But they’re ugly as hell, but in spite of that I carry one every where I go except barbecues. At those events I take one of the pretty pistols.

I make sure to carry my very classy firearms for dinner and the theater good sir haha

 

[Qoholeth]

Been Glocking since 1986, still going. I have had couple of other types. Still got the Glock.
