[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Is it really a sickness??

Posted: 4/19/2014 3:56:23 PM EDT

I think it is as I can't walk out of the lgs without one...

Last month I picked up a Gen3 19 (to go with my Gen2 17) and a Gen3 21SF last week. Today I went to the lgs to BS (at least thats what I told myself) and ended up buying a Gen3 26 as well as a G42. Now I'm thinking I "need" a Gen4..... Does the madness ever stop??

Out of all of them so far the Gen2 17 is my favorite.

Glock makes fine tools. I personally wouldn't put that much of my cash into them. You do seem to have the bases covered though.

it never stops, but might be time to focus on mags, lots of mags

Of course not. Everybody needs a Gen4.

Yes mag time. You have 5 for each one?

Nice collection. Now get 10 mags for each gun, a few thousand rounds through each of them. Then start the 40 family of glocks and repeat the process.

It is an addiction worse than drugs. Enjoy it

Mine all started with a 23 for carry. Then I knew I needed a full size 35 for the range. Now I absolutely know I need to add a 20sf to the family.

Started with a Gen 3 17 for me. Then I got my hands on a Gen 4, which rapidly turned into uh...several of them. A nice stack of guns and a box of mags later, here I am.

Nice collection there. And I don't know the answer to your question OP, but I'm hoping it does stop. I've picked up a new one a month since the beginning of February... started with a gen4 19, added a 42 and then a 30s last week. Great pistols.

I originally planned to have a 23 for carry and a 35 for the night stand. Now the shelf is starting to sag in the safe...

It never ends. You need some gen4's in the mix for sure. My next votes would be for the 21,34, 41.

I see that you are missing a 34 or 35! That should be top priority!

I call it an addiction when I buy multiples of the same gun, for example I'm up to 5 G17's

.

The good kind of addiction.

I see no problem.

I put about 400 rds through my wife's Gen4 G17 tonight at the range, then put 75 or so rds through my G21, then 100+ rds through my G27. Now, after reading this thread I want another Glock. Maybe that will fade when I get my Gen3 G19 back from my wife.

Damn you, OP.

I'm thinking my next purchase will be a Gen3 FDE 17. How is the love for the fde/od pistols? They seem scarce around my part of the woods.

Posted: 4/22/2014 1:47:29 PM EDT

[#20]

It is, I want more variety in my collection but keep buying more. 17-19-22-27-21, and I'm itching for another maybe a 30S or a 20.......

[#21]

OP why don't you have FDE or Best Millimeter Glocks yet?

What kind of American are you?

Well it doesn't make them shoot any better.

But they are made in special runs for the big distributors. They tend to hang around on the market for 4-6 weeks, and then go away for a while until they are made again another 6-8 months away.

They don't do anything for me really. I like Black the best.

Black is beautiful

Sadly, no. Their idea of FDE resembles the color of baby shit. I personally like my OD 21SF.

Is it more like the taupe color of KAC?

No, it's much darker brown than anyone else's "FDE".
