Handled a Gen4 G21 today and walked out with it. I have the 21 two tries before and couldn't get used to the grip, it was awful. The new Gen4 fits my hand perfect and I do mean perfect. The POA is dead on when I bring the weapon up. I don't have large hands, but I believe this will be my new CCW weapon after I get a new body for my MTAC and put some rounds through it. I can't let go of it. I'm tying this one handed actually LOL.

NOPE! I love my G21's all three of them. Mine are all Gen 3 SF models. I also have two G20 10MM Gen 3's I just cant get used to the Gen 4 grip. To rough for me. The Gen 3 SF is it for me.
he Glock G21 is as accurate as any I have found including 1911's |

Just bought a gen 3 21 today from Buds. $409 delivered. VG TO EX condition.
Ran across a gen 3 27 last week for $400. Can't tell it's been fired. Couldn't pass it up. Posted Via AR15.Com Mobile |

Not sure why anyone would buy a G20 when you can have both calibers so easily with the G21. |

I recently acquired a Gen 3 21SF. I have 200 rounds through it in the week I've owned it, and it has been perfect so far.

A few guys on here did but I've had no issues with the .45 extractor. I have a Glockmeister 20 lb recoil spring and I bought (5) Glock 20 mags. Cost me about $300 when it was all said and done but I figure that is roughly half of buying another whole gun. I got the 6 inch hunting barrel which also boost the 10mm even a bit more. |

Thanks to both that replied on the 10mm swap. 10mm is a very attractive cartridge. Just another reason why the G21's are second to only the G19 in overall goodness. |
