Groomsman Glocks

[stephen87]

If you had to choose one Glock to give as a groomsman gift, which would it be? I'm debating buying all of (there's only three of us) either a Glock 19, a Glock 26, or just letting them decide their own Glock that they want. I'd like to have consecutive serials, but I know it's very hard to get. What would your choice be? One of them will have to be IL legal, but I'll figure that out when need be.

20

That's what I'd want.





When's the wedding....I've got a tux. Can you get another bridesmaid?

 

[TECKS]

The 26. You can't go wrong...

If it was your pick, I'd say 19. Probably the best all-around Glock, especially if they aren't CC'ers. You picking would be a better surprise, because they wouldn't know until they opened it, but their choice is cool, too, especially if you know some/all already have 9mm handguns.

As far as IL legal, there's no difference. Illinois doesn't any special requirements for handguns, unlike CA, NY, MA and the like. You just have to transfer it through an IL dealer to that guy, and he needs a FOID card.

I'll take a 19, have tux will travel!

 

[Woobie]

40. It's the only one I want.

But if you want to be practical, get 19's

Glock 19 IMO is the best handgun on the planet. So you couldn't go wrong with that. However, the Glock 43 is a sweet sob as well and may be one to consider.

 

[Gluemanz28]

I would also consider the G43 as an option. It is about $100 less than the 19 and 26.

I have all three and I starting to like the 43 more and more. The G43 might be easier to get sequent serial numbers as well.

Edit: Buck beat me to the G43.

I'm betting he can and will get you sequential serial numbers and beat just about any price around including the Internet.

Have to do the 19!

 

[bwframe]

Need a ring carrier?

Can't have too many 19's can you?

Another vote for 19s. More accurate due to sight radius, and almost as easy to conceal. I actually sold my 26 because I discovered it was just as easy to conceal my 19 and I was a HELL of a lot more accurate with it.

And If you can convince your bride to do the same gift with her bridesmaids, I'll walk with BigTanker. Just make sure its a full length dress. I dont have the legs for cocktail length.

19 or a 43

 

[Tombs]

Unless there's a specifically stated purpose and little to no likelyhood of it being used outside of that 1 purpose, the glock 19 is the way to go.

 

[Bfish]

I'd also go 19... It runs the board pretty well I think. Plus everyone needs one, or two!

 

[MoparMan]

19

I think the 43 is an excellent idea. Most people don't have one yet, even current Glock owners, and just about everyone can use a new easy to carry EDC.

Your only agreeing to this because you saw him in his Hilbilly Tank Top Tuxedo at the Training class.

Damn, I think I need new friends... a Glock as a Groomsman gift, that's awesome! Another vote for the 19 here, best all-around handgun ever in my opinon! I've also heard great things about the 43, haven't picked one up yet, but it's next on my list.
