    I've had several. My personal opinion is that they were fantastic guns that paved the way for the modern pistol. Unfortunately they spent the last 10 years or more milking the market instead of innovating. Not knocking the guns, but there are better guns out there that are cheaper, with better features and just as reliable. G***k had the lead and lost it due to not doing more. I'm very curious if things change now.

    All true.

    I don't mind the platform. I even have a couple with a decent factory trigger.

    Glock likes to claim 65% of the market share but I believe that is a figure based on law enforcement and I will bet it has been heavily impact by the P320.

    Maybe someone will google-foo market share by brand, platform and caliber. Please put it in an easy to ready graph with a 40 year time span. Thanks!

    I really don't understand how they keep that market share. So many guns today offer a lot more than a G***k. I think it has to be the market penetration/saturation they have with so many parts and holsters and such available. I'm not saying they're bad, just totally not for me. I'll keep my P10C OR which is better in every way IMO.
