I have a gen 3 23. I never carry it or shoot it. Had I not gotten it as a Father's Day Gift, I would sell it.

I'm a believer.

Drop the Mic moment right there

Glad they didn't go off while in the process of being dragged

True. Sounds like a stunt that could have gotten someone hurt.

i got 3 now 21, 21sf and a 17 . they work like a charm

Glocks don't go off unless the trigger is pulled. We shot a loaded Glock 17 with 50 rounds of .22, tossed it out of a helicopter, dunked it in oil, then buried it in sand, then dug it up and fired it, shot it underwater...you name it. It NEVER went off when it wasn't supposed to, and ALWAYS went off when it was.

So they fired. Did anyone hit a target? I bought a Gen 1 Glock 17 and couldn't hit the broad side of a barn with it. I can hit targets of any shape or size with zero missfires with an XD all day. Just sayin.

I'm gonna go to bed and STFU. My Glock experience was obviously all me. That's awesome man!

I have one because my wife wanted it. It's a 26 with the factory competition trigger package, a trigger job and a+2 pearce magazine extension. I only dislike it, I don't hate it. I can hit things with it, it's just more difficult to do so than with most of my other pistols. It lives in her glove box with two 17 round backup magazines. An old model 60 j frame lives in a compartment of her purse.

The wife shoots it pretty well.

I have a model 21, but also revolvers.

You oughta at least use one of your single actions and turn the Glock so its facing away from you, making a smaller target. You can probably buy up a bunch of them that melted from someone leaving one in the sun too long. I think they are pretty cheap.

Doesn't seem to fit me as well as an XD does. so No i don't

I have a 19 & a 26. Of the 30+ handguns I own, the 19 is what I carry in the woods. I consider it my "work horse"

Glock, like Mathews Bows, are good products for some people. But they're honestly no better than many other makes, they just got a better marketing strategy. I have no real bad beef with Glock, other than not being a fan of plastic. I just get real fired up when folks start talking about giving their wife (or any novice) a Glock pistol. There's far better and safer alternatives. Anyone who carries a duty weapon will attest to the benefit of repetition training. And many of those same folks understand what can happen to your brain in a panic situation. I encourage all wives and daughters to carry a weapon and practice with that weapon. But also choose a simple, no frills, DA snub nose. Just point & click simplicity, no thinking required. Its the smartest, safest and most effective choice.

That's EXACTLY what a Glock is...you have the simplicity and ease of use of a snub nose revolver, but with 2-3x the capacity (depending on model). Where does the snub nose have an advantage?

i have both , have for years . i carry the glock

Some years back, my wife wanted a new Kimber short slide 45 because "it's so pretty".
After trying (and failing) to explain why I didn't want her to have that, I went a different route.
I unloaded her .38 S&W and waited until she was walking through the living room.
I jumped from the hallway, threw her the S&W as I shoved her onto the couch.
I hollered give me your wallet! Loud as I could, and then screamed hurry up bich!
She was totally panicked and actually couldn't even remember how to work that simple little 38 revolver.
After she got done crying, cussing (and kicking & slapping me) she finally calmed down and figured out what I had been trying to say.
I apologized to her and later took her out for steak and margaritas just make up for being a total arse.
