    Originally it was a duty gun and that was what all the other little boys were doing.

    Thanks everyone. I had to post this thread, so people can get a glimpse why we love Glocks.

    Jeez... I hope you're going open carry!!!!!

    I like Glocks because of their reliability... It doesn't hurt than so many LEO's and military units stndardized on Glock pistols... that had to be for a reason... I like that they are not as heavy as some of the big all-steel pistols... Glocks seem more reasonably priced that some of the other pistols... lots of extra parts and mods for Glocks... and I think Glocks are very snazzy looking... very stylish for a pistol...

    Before I bought my 19 I rented a few guns at the range and I liked the Glock. Their reputation as well as the price I got it for was what ultimately sealed the deal. Sucked having to wait 9 weeks for shipping but I am very happy with my decision. Over 500 rounds, at least 4 different kinds of ammo, no malfunctions whatsoever. And my CPL should be here any day now...

    Well I wanted a .40 because I had never shot a .40 and during the ammo shortage .40 was really the only thing on store shelves. At first I wanted a Walther P99. Then I wanted an XD40, then I wanted a Walther P99 again. Then I figured that for the price of the Walther I might as well get an HK. So I wanted an HK USP Compact .40. Then I watched nutnfancy's video comparing the USPc .40 to the G23. This video didn't sway me one direction or the other, just made me consider Glock as an option.

    So I researched Glock as much as I could and discovered that it's relatively easy to fully disassemble a Glock AND get replacement factory parts for it. That's what made my mind up and I couldn't be happier with my decision.

    I have seen many of nutnfancy's YouTube videos... He is informative and entertaining... Hard to believe he is a Lt. Colonel in the military, though... Most of the colonels I have met are deadly serious... some of his videos are pretty good...

    I got my Glock, because of what I have read about them, what friends said and each time I shoot it, I like it more than the last time.

    What a great gun
