Any Glock lovers out there?

After years of 1911 and S&W Revolver snobbery......I broke down and bought a Glock. It took so time for me to adjust to the trigger (can't say that I will ever be "fond" of it) but the guns just grow on you after a while. Functional looks, stone cold reliable, and affordable.......not a bad combination. I now owns four of them - models 30SF, 17, 26, & 34. Anybody else growing Glock in your gun safe?

I really like the Glocks, but they don't fit my hand well. I purchased a Springfield XD .40 last year and am very happy with it.

My Smith & Wesson SW9VE looks an awful lot like a Glock with a better color scheme. But, S&W made changes to the trigger so it's not... 8)

Not growing them exactly, but I think the Glock 19 is one of the best trail guns around. It is light, packs plenty of punch and require little care while in the field. I often roam in areas where mountain lion warnings are present. One camp has a prominent warning posted about a cat attacking and mauling a camper, and still on the loose. Sitting aroud the campfire with a single malt and the Glock readily available is still very relaxing.

I have the Glock 22 and love it. I recently took a concealed gun class and when a student asked the instructor what gun to get if you needed a weapon for personal defense in any condition, sand,water you name it. The instructor held up my 22 and said " I hate Glock's, they aren't accurate but if you want a proven weapon that is used by major police departments you will want a Glock." The gunsmith then stood up and expressed his dislike of Glocks but couldn't agree more with the instructor. He said "you can take these guns out of a pile of sand and mud, chamber a load and fire." Just ask the police department in New Orleans when the hurricane hit. They pulled their guns out of mud and the guns fired. And yes they are a very good value. The trigger is just fine for me once you get use to the safety. As for accuracy, my wife and I shot the tightest group out of 12 adults but we use to fire weapons frequently years ago. I was trained by the Marines and I trained my wife. I'm not so sure that was a wise move.

I have a Glock 27 in .40 I use for concealed carry. It shares time with my Sig Sauer P229 and Walther PPS depending on the climate.
