Then don't talk about, buy, entertain the thought of, give advice on. Just saying.

If Glocks suck, why is the Glock 19 the most popular handgun in the world???

No knock on them but they are not an expensive gun. Easy to find/buy.
If you like homely chicks a glock is the perfect fit...........

They made a zillion VW beetles in the same area of the world. Ran great, reliable as hell but just a homely car. Still, near everyone my age has owned one.

Own what you like. Shoot the hell out of it and enjoy.

Uh, does that make you a 'macho man'?

No, but it is fun to stay at the YMCA...

Why are there companies that specialize in "upgrades" for glocks? Yes, some pieces (interchangeable barrels) enhance flexibility, some are to help personalize the gun for the owner, but some are for fixing what some perceive as problems with their guns. I put an extended slide lock lever on my G30.

And please tell me if Glocks are so trouble free, why are there so many Glock armorers?

Thats easy. There are so many Glocks. Duh.

I'd be willing to go to a range and prove otherwise with fellow INGOers as witnesses...

I can make the exact same argument, actually even more extensively for Colt 1911's and the multitude of clones, S&W's, XD's, and so forth.

And I've seen some pretty expensive handguns in my friend's shop for repairs. ANY gun is capable of failure in some manner. It's built by humans, therefore is subject to human vagaries.

I'm not sure that's a truly valid observation. Just sayin'...

My glock is and always will be my battle buddy... that is all

This thread is full of win, and fail! Shoot what you like and make sure you post in the other two "blah" sucks threads.

While I'm not a tremendous Glock fan, I have owned 4 over the years and just could never get excited about them. I like a P99 much better.. But they definitely don't suck.

So does a vacuum...neither one may be much to look at but both will do the job thats required of it realiably. I wouldnt go without either in my house

I agree because after you own one all the other handguns are just fluff. Oh, and mine are still stock with a few thousand rounds for action/trigger smoothing.

If you watch news reports about negligent discharges, more often then not you will see that a Glock pistol was involved. If is about 'numbers' and plentiful Glocks then where are all the negligent discharge reports concerning rifles, shotguns and revolvers? There's plenty of them out there too.

Granted, when the unfortunate report involves kids, it usually is one of those three types of firearms. But when a reporting in some form of media of a negligent discharge involves an alleged 'informed and experienced' gun owner, more often then not a Glock is involved. Lefty IWB holster available here BTW.

"I heard at the Gun Shop" the other day, when the next 0 0 7 Movie comes out, James will be packing a G L O C K instead of a P P K.......

What is the first thing someone does after buying a glock? Look for ways to fix it. Think I'm wrong? Does anyone own a stock glock?

You could also say that about M&P's. New trigger, sights, sear, etc. Know anyone who hasn't modified an M&P?

Sticks and Stones, OP, Sticks and Stones.

However, there is still time for you OP. It took me nearly 15 years to adjust to the Glock. Now? I love my Glock 17. I now want a G-19 and a G-22.

So Sticks and Stones. If it can happen to me it can happen to you. Love your Glock

I still own my Gen3 I got NIB and I love it stock and will never sell or trade or modify my gen3

I haven't modified my M&P9c. I don't see a reason too.. i'm just sayin..

I enjoy the Glock. I don't own one, but have enjoyed firing them. Accurate and easy to fire.
