Anybody else here done this? I'm mainly a 1911 guy (commiefornian), but wanted to finally see what glock was all about so I bought a 21sf. It fucking sucks! The trigger is garbage and no external safety freaks me out. So yeah, fuck glocks, 1911's rule. Peace.
>a thread died for this garbage
>The trigger is garbage and no external safety freaks me out
Get a DA/SA hammer gun with a decocker then. It seems that the pinnacle of carry technology isn't for you.
Whats wrong with glock safety?
Nothing, the automatic safety on the trigger and the trigger pull are fine safety mechanisms for the glock. OP is just scared because he is old and he wants a manual safety on his glock.
>DA/SA cuckoldry
The demographic of glock users are typically the most retarded, try hard faux tactical arrogant faggots that have ever existed. I will never change my mind about that, even when i own a glock some day.
>source: your anus
I might buy another glock, a glock 26, after selling a 19 earlier this year.
The things that keep drawing me back are the spare parts and how easy they are to work on.
I'm not so keen on their trigger since I shoot da/sa and revolvers a bit better.
I think if the only handguns in existence were glocks I'd be fine with them and would put in the time to really learn how to shoot them well, but since they aren't the only kids on the block and I shoot other kinds of handguns better it's hard to justify, despite their advantages in the logistics' department.
Holy fuck you're dumb
I mean since you cant carry in CA and they're all basically range toys, 1911s are fine I guess, when they're not jamming
Thanks for proving my point

So you're early-mid 20's with some shooting experience, then. It's the same for everyone. Eventually the size/weight, cost and performance savings of the Glock or something analogous will win you over. No, it's not 'sexy' like a

>Anybody else here done this?
Bought a Talos G17,with "USA" on it. Think nothing of it. When the gun warmed up it started throwing brass back at me, no I was not mush handing or limp wrisitng it. Sent it back to Glock, they swapped out the extractor and 2 or three other parts, sent it back to me. Still had some brass hit my shoulder and arm, so I got rid of it. Are all US made Glocks trash?
Also, I look at gun ownership through two lenses, the first is the 2nd Amendment. The other is through the lens of retail experience, and one bad retail experience is all it takes.
>USA
wait what
Glocks are made down in Georgia
>Buying product made in USA
Wow I bet you think S&W, Winchester, and Colt are good
I've heard nothing but bad shit about the slides with usa on them. I stay away from that shit and have had no issues with glocks from the 80s to present. The trigger actually isn't shit when you learn how to operate it properly. Follow up shots are nice.
No. I had to get an m&p first to prove I wasn't an NPC before getting a glock. 2 years and it's still my go to even if I'd love to carry some of my collectables. I shoot the 19 well, it locks up in my hands fast and tight, and I don't mind it getting worn.
Nothing wrong with the m&p, I kept it because it's nice to shoot something different. I just can't shoot it accurately as quickly.
I got a gen4 Talo 19 and haven't had any issues with it. It's somewhere in 6k round territory
No, but we're in the few because we're not dirt poor and/or dumb animals who feel loyalty to (((brands))).
I owned an HK USP Expert, and I still shot my Glock 19 much better. Out of all my autos I shoot the glock best, that being said, I'm a revolver guy.
I have never shot a 1911 but if it's as smooth as people say it is, I might get me an Ed Brown

The trigger isn't "garbage", you're just a shit shot. If you can't shoot tight groups with a glock you just can't shoot tight groups at all, the trigger is literally 5-6 lbs if you can't handle it I'd suggest going to a beginner class to learn how to shoot you low iq fudd fuck.
>Fun Fact
Glock is a $300-400 tops! You're paying for a name and logo. That's it.
"Glock perfection ". Yeah? Then why does nobody keep their glock stock?
It's cool how a gun has such a history of double feeding it's actually designed to break in a specific way. It's not a safety advancement, it's a response to a long known issue.
$550 for plastic sights, plastic mags that notoriously get hung up, subpar trigger and proprietary mounting system? No ty
Own many firearms. Have owned and shot many poly strikers.
Can confirm trigger is trash, however it's been steadily improving
Sure thing noguns.
Well since you said it on the interwebs it must be true
Plenty of people keep their glocks stock, including me. It's an excellent pistol stock, modifications are just to fit the user's preferences which is great if they choose to do so, but it's an extremely reliable and accurate pistol without mods as well and we both know this is a fact.
The glock does not have a history of double feeding. You made this up and have no substantial evidence.
>plastic sights
I agree, that's annoying
> bad mags
glocks mags are extremely reliable. So reliable that many PCC's are designed around feeding from glock mags. You made this up and have no substantial evidence.
> subpar trigger
If you can't shoot with a glock trigger you can't shoot
my Ray ban lenses ate some brass from my glock before.
it sucks they didn't do simple shit like a mag kickout and a better trigger until the gen 5 shit
>If you can't shoot with a glock trigger you can't shoot
You can shoot tons of other triggers and still think the glock trigger is shit which it is. Comparatively its spongy and shitty
Nope, not by a long shot. My mother was a fan of Glocks and always carried either a 21 or 27 despite being an old Asian lady, and also shot the 21 in competition. I disliked Glocks growing up and generally liked the Colt Commander and PPK/s more. It wasn't until I was around 18 or 19 that I decided to give Glocks another go and loved it. Now a 22 is my carry gun, with either a full size 22 factory frame or a P80 full size frame cut down to accept 27 mags, with the same slide/barrel assembly on both. The cut down one looks wonky and bubba as fuck, but it's surprisingly good for summer CC.
Then why did glock specifically design the frame grip to have a cut to manually pull out the mags when they get hung up or dont drop free......no evidence.
This time try again and put your glock fanboy options aside and approach this from a factual evidence standpoint.
I can shoot good enough from any gun you put in my hands, doesnt negate that the glock trigger is sloppy, mushy, and trashy (trigger snob here). I have been carrying a Beretta APX combat lately, trigger is ok at best, minimal take up, crisp break, not too much over travel, decent recent that's audible and easily felt. Still isnt a great trigger but it's still better than glock. Could be worse though, XDs are absolutely dogshit
the new gen5 glocks have kickouts
No. I'm a poorfag though so I bought a police trade-in Glock 22 Gen 3 and has served me well for the most part. I've only had 2 F2F's, 2 F2E, 1 slide lockback failure, with about 2000 rounds I put through it, and used it for hunting and sometimes EDC. I carry a Taurus PT111 G2 as a smaller alternative since that was my first gun I ever bought, but I would rather have it replaced with something like a CZ P10c in the future as my main EDC. I will keep the Glock cause it's good to have a common gun and it's easy to find parts replacement.
AAAAAAAAA
Why can't I find a new gen 5 Glock 45 in 9mm? They're all sold out or REALLY expensive
>Then why did glock specifically design the frame grip to have a cut to manually pull out the mags when they get hung up or dont drop free......no evidence.
It was originally designed as an Austrian service pistol. The Austrians didn't want their magazines to be drop free, so the frames were made so that the user could manually remove the magazine. When it hit the US market the magazines were adapted to be drop free but the cutout remained.
Glock triggers are fine. Sure they aren't 1911s but as a defensive handgun the stock trigger is more than adequate. There are some schools of thought that one should "prime" the trigger when shooting. I've tried it, not completely sold on it due to its questionable safety but it does help me shoot better.
the p320 has a way better trigger.
Gen 5
$600+ for something that is industry standard on nearly every gun starting at $200
What? that's not evidence buddy. Glock included that as an extra measure, it doesn't prove that the mags are unreliable just because a measure was taken to make it easier to take them out. I am taking it from a factual standpoint. Triggers are subjective, are there better triggers out there? yes. But I think the glock trigger is good, especially for what it was designed for (combat use). Obviously it's not going to be a competition style trigger but that's not what it was designed for, the inherent accuracy of the pistol does not change based on the trigger.
4 failures is a lot for a glock in 2k rounds. I have close to 4000 rounds through my glock 19 with zero failures, and my buddies who have glocks have over 10k with no failures. I would suggest replacing or taking a look at some of the internals cause that is not normal
the kickout isn't some feature that adds hundreds of dollars dude
Let's be completely honest about glock.
"Mr. Gaston pioneered the poly strikers. He created an new line of firearms that every company wanted to be. They are tried and true. They are reliable. They are NOT perfection and they ARE overpriced compared to current industry competitors. Good gun? Yes. Great gun. No(not by current industry options). Worth the money? I guess if you are happy sacrificing features and usability for the sake of saying you carry a certain brand."
>Glock Fan boys are the Apple iPhone users of the gun world. Fact
Exactly. You proved my point. $650 for nothing special
Literally the most reliable pistol on the market.
its 530 online dude, where the fuck are they 650?
they need a wider grip, plus a hammer, they'll look MMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM
Glock added that because mags were getting hung up and not dropping free. I agree triggers are subjective and there us NO reason to carry a hairline trigger for a CPL/CCW. But the trigger us still subpar for the price bracket they are in. No triggers do not improve the accuracy of the firearm, they improve the accuracy of the shooter.
what are the best cheap sights to replace the factory ones with?
Why get the G45? Is it not just a G19 with a bigger frame why would you want that? You can get a G19 gen 4 for 499$ new right now and it's an excellent pistol, I like glock but I am not throwing down 600+$ for a pistol especially for one that's basically a harder to conceal G19. I don't even understand the appeal for the G45 at all
And by the time you pay taxes, FFL transfer, and shipping fees (if applicable) you're hovering the 600 mark.
I'm not saying they are bad guns. I'm just saying they aren't the "perfection" they claim to be
They should be......something to do with the original poly striker on the market....
>Why get the G45? Is it not just a G19 with a bigger frame why would you want that?
Because I have big fucking hands and the G19 is puny in comparison. The bigger grip is necessary.
>And by the time you pay taxes, FFL transfer, and shipping fees (if applicable) you're hovering the 600 mark.
Dude its fucking online, I don't pay tax online you chuckle fuck. Shipping 20 dollars or less, and transfers in my area are also 25 dollars. Not paying that made up 100 dollar markup plus tax on top of that, saving literally 150 dollars easily.
Jesus dude who is raping you on transfers?
My glock is completely stock, but I added the OEM adjustable rear sight. It adds some height to the sight, and allows you to adjust for both windage and elevation which is pretty useful. It's only 20$ on amazon and it's durable and stays where you set it to. If you just don't like the "goalpost" rear sight you can just take an expo marker and black out the rear sight, now you just have a black rear with the white dot front which is pretty great.
You don't need a sight pusher, I literally used the back of an axe and an old plastic speaker and pushed out the old one and pushed in the new adjustable on by just banging on it. Be careful when you do this though.
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
Just get good tritium nights. You'll love em
>no holster
thats his fault
I literally went to academy and got the glock 19 for 499 out the door, there is no need to buy a glock online when they are at every gun store in large quantities. The price is right at 500 which is fair to me and a lot of other people.
>there is no need to buy a glock online when they are at every gun store in large quantities
or save money on tax and markup by buying online
This scares me about appendix
Also backstory
He was absolutely using a holster brainlet. Look closer.
it literally looks like he put it into his belt
either that or its a garbage holster
Throws holster on ground at 0:38
>such a garbage holster that it gets inside the trigger.
Looked like a serpa style.
Looks like a piece of shit that got him shot in the dick
See
I wouldn't be worry about it with such an inherently safe design as the Glock Safe Action(tm) Pistol. You trigger pin would literally have to walk out a hundredth of an inch or more during a range session before killing you on holstering.

>I bought a 21sf
found your problem right there - sub-standard ammunition type.
>no external safety freaks me out
Then let your husband carry your gun for you if you're so timid about your killing machine.
You're 100% correct though that >The trigger is garbage
>I have a piece of shit holster and this is glocks fault
Confirmed to be a Gcode incog kydex holster. Rather popular design.
Either in his dick, balls, kneecap, or femoral artery. Overall a fucking bad day. Appendix carry is just so fucking dumb, you are literally breaking one of the basic rules of firearm safety, and not only are you pointing the barrel at yourself, you are pointing it at your fucking testicles and arteries what the fuck is wrong with you people? Just carry on your hip somewhere. This dude probably got cloth or something in his holster and now he has to be dickless. I am not risking myself being instantly turned into a trap or bleeding out and you shouldn't either.
>its popular
clearly its shit
I carry IWB at kidney and strongside OWB paddle. I'm gonna be testing an appendix rig, I see the benefits of it, just scares me
Hot damn look at that waifu coming in hot with gloves and a tq ready to go
>I am not risking myself being instantly turned into a trap
Technically, traps have dicks. So he couldn't even do that if he wanted.
meant to say tranny, my pronoun knowledge is a little weak. I'll just drop by the gender studies class at the uni to freshen up
Big concern of mine.
Source
I'm going to probably have the Glock as my backup gun and opt to get a new carry firearm in the near future(CZ P10c). The failure to fire are possibly light primer strikes which is a bad sign and the slide failing to lock back adds to that. If issues continue to persist, I might have to get a Smith to take a look at it so you're probably right.
I keep buying G20s. Owned three of them now. Just on a whim I bought a 29SF because I wanted to carry and thought a 10mm would work, but the fat as fatass frame was a real disappointment IWB. Sold it, now I'm craving yet another 10mm.
