Do Glocks Really Suck?

[bloodandgutsmurphy]

I have been browsing internet forums and it seems that I have come across more Glock haters than Glock lovers. I just purchased a used gen 2 Glock 17. I have shot it and it is really fun to shoot. It has not exploded on me yet.
My question is are Glocks poor pistols?

 

[mcolford]

yeah.... That's why most Law enforcement agencies go with Glock.


Insert purple where needed...

I shot a Gen 2 G17 and G23 and liked both quite a bit. In fact, when I was shopping for a pistol, the 17 was on my list. Then I got hold of a Gen 3 (maybe 4? don't remember) and the new molded finger grip was completely off for my hand. It just didn't feel good at all.

I'm no expert, but I definitely didn't mind shooting the two I tried. They were both fun.

Glocks don't suck, people who hate Glocks suck.

Don't shoot lead bullet out of the factory barrel

Yeah It is a personal preference as to what feels right in your hand. I have 2 Glocks and love them both. I also own several other hand guns and love them all as well.

No ! I like Clocks. I have quite a few all over my house.

I was think of adding a frame mounted safety to my glock

I'm one of those few that are in the middle. I carry one everyday but I also love the classic 1911's.

They suck.......the life out of anything they shoot!!!
I dont know about anyone else, i love mine, Gen3 G22.
Go shooting it and make your own choice.
Some will hate them some will like them.
Those who dont have one are just jealous...

Don't shoot lead bullet out of the factory barrel

1. One should not fire unjacketed ammunition out of any semi auto handgun anyway.

2. I have owned 2 Glocks for 10+ years. I have fired well over 10,000 rounds from one, and 3,000 rounds from the other. I've never had so much as a stovepipe from either, after the initial breaking in.

3. Just for fun, I didn't clean my G22 for 5000 rounds of the dirtiest Winchester White Box. The lack of cleaning didn't affect its performance at all.

4. Use factory loaded ammunition only in a Glock.

They fit my hand well, are very accurate, very durable and eat anything. What's not to love?
