Thanks for posting that.

I kind of like the Glock's too. I have eight of them. For whatever reason, I'm able to shot them pretty well. My favorite? The Glock 34.

Your field stripping problem (It was mine too) was trying to lower both sides of that Glock take down lever at the same time.
Next time (If you still own it) you'll find if you lower one side and then while still holding it ___you can lower the other side easily and you'll feel the slide move forward a wee bit. Then just take the slide the rest of the way off.
No issue when reassembling___the slide lever just raises as you push the slide back on.
I have the G-26 Gen 4 and have a Blue Label G-43 ordered. If I didn't have a Sig P320 Compact I would have ordered a G-19. (Gen 4) My EDC is one of my Shield 9s.
G'luck!

I haven't tried too many of them: about three 17s, three 19s, a couple of 21s, and a 36. I still have my three 19s,in fact one is a newly acquired Gen 4. Love 'em all. Hard to beat as a bug out gun, a nightstand pistol or a 'go to' pistol.

I have owned four 1911's and four Glocks. (two 17's, two 34's)
My SIL's were not at all interested in the 1911's, I gave each SIL a Glock.

The SIL's could care less if I sell the 1911's,,, but, they drool when we discuss the Glocks.

The last 1911 will be gone soon,,, I will hang on to the two Glocks.
I agree with the fact that the Glock is a tool,,, but, it is a GREAT tool.

My GEN 1 police trade-in Model 17 impresses me EVERY time I take it out.
I can not say that for any other gun I have owned.

Me too. Went to the LGS looking for a Glock 26 for EDC. Left with an M&P Compact 9 and never looked back.

Glock 9mm's are the best! Fool proof and choice of special op's !

Are those grips actually mounted? I'd love to have Hogue rubber sides mounted to mine.

Wow is that an illustration for "put a lipstick on a pig"

No, not actually mounted. Just got bored looking at all that plastic and saw a photo opportunity.

Those grips I borrowed from a .38 Super 1911 for a few minutes.

Give me a Glock loaded with HSTs and I'm good to go.

If I was only allowed one gun to own it would be a Glock 20 as I can do everything I need it to in my area. CC, hunting, etc

I have shot several glocks mostly the g22, g20, and g26. The g20 was prolly my favorite. The best feeling to me was the g19, but I've never fired one. I don't own one and never have. They just never grew on me, they are great pistols. Just always been a revolver guy. I am considering buying a g43 or a shield 9mm. Shot the shield and really liked it but I would have to get the no safety version (lefty). Maybe I'll decide sooner or later I think all the plastic guns are not that great looking.

I've had this .40 cal since they first hit the shelves, around 1991. Reliable & easy to maintain. Nice to have 15+1. Despite the full size I've carried it AIWB. I've added a extended slide release & extended slide stop, a stainless steel spring & a rubber grip. Perfect for me.

All day - 5 days a week. IMHO there is not a better pistol that fits the need of LEO/Mil community - simple, affordable, tough, reliable, accurate. As always, YMMV.
