| sell me on a 23. I have a 19, and would like a second glock and I think i want a 23 but not sure... |
| I'm issued 40 so that's what I shoot. I like it just fine. If it weren't issued, I would be a 9mm only shooter. I'd be thinking about another Glock 9mm if I were you. A 26 if you want a deeper concealment gun, or maybe a 17 or 34 for a nice range gun. Don't discount a second 19, you know two is one and all. |

I have the 19 and 23.
I love the 19 and hate the 23 and I wish I could sell the 23. I love 9mm and .45ACP. I even work L.E. and we breathe, eat, sleep, sh*t .40. Its a good caliber, but I still like 9mm and 45 more. My 19 is amazingly accurate, dependable, and reliable. How can a person not love a big 'ol american apple pie eating .45ACP! |

My 23 would be a 19 if my Dad didn't insist we use 40's. We decided years ago to choose the same platforms for our main "defense guns" in order to have parts, ammo, and mag compatibility. We both agreed on Glocks, but he wanted a 40 over the 9mm. That said, everything that is "perfect" about the 19 is the same with the 23. It just has snappier recoil and 2 fewer rounds in the mag.
Now that I have my "go to" 40s taken care of I'm starting to add 9mms for day to day CCW and range use. Went with the 26 first and will probably add a 17 or 19 eventually. |
