I think I'm going to use this for my CCW. It seems like a good pick. It's tiny, .40 cal for good stopping power, 9 round mag, and reliable. The only problem is the pistol grip is too small for my hand, but that can be cleared up with a mag extension.

What are your opinions?

Get a Pearce Grip +1 extension and it should fit fine, and you'll have 10+1 rounds instead of 9+1.  [pistol]

Glock 27 is a great choice.  It's what I use.  Get a Pearce +1 extension.  It gives you a 10 round mag with pinky support.

I've carried my 27 for 2 years and love it! I has over 14,000 rounds through it with out a single hiccup. I usually carry the 9-round mag because it makes the butt 1/2" shorter and helps me hide it under a t-shirt in the summer. I also carry a 13-round hi-cap with an AG (sp?) grip spacer in a mag carrier. I use the Pearce+1 for competition and like it a lot; it really doesn't make it any harder to conceal. I shoot 600+ rounds a month and find the 27 easy to control with all of the above mags. I've also installed an Agrip (see www.brookstactical.com/Pages/whtsagrp.html) which helps A LOT especially when the gun is cold or wet.
Buy one, you won't be sorry.

What does a 27 go for $$  ?

It is pushing $500 nowadays.

I got one when they first came out and have carried it ever since.  Trijicons.  Several thousand practice rounds without a hiccup.

I think the only thing that could make the 27 better is if it were a single stack. the slide and frame are to wide.

The G27 is my carry weapon also.  I also use the stock mag without the extension, to keep the package as small as possible.  After a while the two-finger-grip becomes natural.  

This is what I tell people who ask what it feels like to carry my Glock:

[b][red]Think of the G27 as your wallet, you know it is there, but you really don't think about it until you go to reach for it. [/red][/b]

I carry the Glock 27 as my concealed carry weapon.  I put the belt clip called 'The Glok
Klip' on it to make it easier to carry.

I use an extended mag device that permits 10 rounds to be carried in the mag.

All in all, my favorite carry weapon.[>]:)]

The 36 is gaining ground too because of the single-stack design and .45 caliber.

I use the 26 as my CCW and love it. Would probably like the 27 even better. Definitely get the plus 1 extension, you cant go wrong.Good luck.
