Congratulations! You bought the Honda Civic of handguns. It goes bang every time you pull the trigger and is accurate enough for the vast majority of shooters. Sounds like a good choice.
That said, the fanbois will say Glocks are the greatest ever, but in reality they are very good guns but not the best in any category. Yay mediocrity! |

That's sorta the thing - they ain't the best in any one category, but they are really good in all categories. Size Reliability Capacity Simplicity Ease of maintenance Plethora of aftermarket accessories Availability of spare parts Overall good factory warranty & service Cheap mags Accuracy Price Wide variety of calibers available Then take your Ferrari, it really excels at looks, acceleration, handling & braking, but reliability, maintenance & price is a real bitch. The Honda Civic is a good gun to choose for your daily driver when the boss doesn't want to hear bullshit excuses why something is wrong with the car or it's in the shop and you're gonna be late. |

I don't generally go for crazy colors on most gus, although if they had one of the Confederate grey, I would have entertained it. I just don't believe I would go Gen 4 just to get the grey. As far as I know they are gen4 only? |

Just saw a nice Gen2 17 at a local shop. It's been there since Oct 2015 based on the tag. Asking price is $429 with one pre-ban mag. Thinking about poking at it with a $375 OTD price, but I really don't need it.... Believe it or not, the shelves at the lgs was bare as hell. His cases are usually crammed full. The guy said he was having trouble getting anything from distributers. He only had three Glocks and I took 1. |

Just because Glock Fan Boys run into everyone else's threads to shit all over the place, it doesn't mean they will do the same here. Fans of other platforms hold themselves to different standards. Enjoy your G19. |

I'm just glad they had a Gen 3.
