Get a Gen 3 or at least a 17L
ZOGbot
get a G19 instead of the 17, it's more comfy
that thing is hideous.
>bootlicker special pricing
>still 1k for two glocks
how?
the g43 is 379.99 plus tax
and the g17/19 is gonna be around 5
>sales tax
LOL
The 17 is solid gun, enjoy.
The 42 and 43 are not real Glocks. A local sheriif's department issued them to their vice squad, and every single one of them went back to their 19's after a 2-day training class, because the guns can't perform past 15 yards.
A 26 will outshoot a 43 everytime.
Why Glock? The P30 is ~$575, the PPQ is ~$500, and the VP9 ~$550 and I personally think they are more comfortable, better quality, and equally or more reliable. If you get the G17 you are still getting a quality firearm with a large aftermarket.
I'm assuming the G43 will be for CC but is there really a reason you can't step up to a P30sk or P2000sk?
Because hk and walther are shit memes.
Oh, I didn't realize they were dank may-mays, fellow child.
Buy the 45 instead.
Why 3
Not him but many feel the Gen3 is a proven design though it had its own drawbacks. The extractors were beefed up in later gens, the grip texture is meh, and the mag release is smaller than the 4/5 gen. None of these are deal breakers.
>Can't perform past 15 yards
You mean they can't fucking shoot.
There is zero reason to go gen3 anymore. The mag release on gen4/5 is a huge improvement and makes the gen3 look fucking tiny in comparison. The teething issues with early gen4s were resolved back in 2012/2013. No reason not to go gen5.
They're bigger, namely the PPQ shoots like and has the grip size of a 19 but the size profile of a 17
Hold less rounds
Have higher bore axis
The P30 has a shit trigger
The controls are retardedly large
The VP9 has a dumb paddle mag release
They all have weird ergos in the attempt to have good ergos
They are less proven
I would definitely go Gen 5 over Gen 3 at this point
The only reason not to go Gen 5 is if you want a Glock not in 9mm or you specifically want a 17L (which is a meme gun anyways)
Not him but I've been toying with the idea of buying a Glock brand Glock just to have it in my collection, since it's so prevalent and distinctive looking, even if other things have outdone it or are better on paper for the price or less.
Maybe I'd meme it up with a 34. If I wanted something Glock 19-like, I'd probably get an M&P2.0c, or a P10c.
G19 is really the crowning achievement of the Glock brand.
Glock 19 gen 3 like the SEALs standard sidearm.
shoot literally any other striker fired polymer wonder 9 and you wont want the glock
literally.any.other.pistol.
you dont want a glock because you like the way it feels and shoots. you want a glock because a bunch of internet faggots said you should want one
go rent literally anything else and a glock 19. doesnt matter whether its the s&w, the springfield, the taurus, the steyr, the walther, whatever. shoot literally anything else and you wont want the glock.
prove me wrong. protip: you can't.
Meh. Boring, like all glocks. Your money though, do what you want.
Listen to this guy.
And ignore this faggot.
Most cops fucking suck with guns though
Get them, but test fire one along with a few other comparable striker fired pistols to make sure you like the trigger/bore height. That’s really the only difference, almost all striker fire guns work. Some are slightly better but cost 1-2 Hundred more, and some have minor quality control issues(sig). Some just have retarded features or are just ugly (steyr) With the blue label pricing you’re getting a great deal and could get your money back easy if you want to sell it. Just don’t get a xd, those are pants on head retarded, not Taurus retarded but close
Get a gen 5 17 MOS and a 42. Buy once cry once.
why the hell would i want a .380?
my sister has one and it feels like a little bitch gun
Lmaoing at civvie tears right now
The HKucks are out in full force today.
You'll figure it out someday faggot. .380 has as much energy as a .38 +P out of a 42 and fits nicely in a pocket. When you get sick of carrying a 6+1 43 on your waist that is as uncomfortable as a double stack 19 you'll thank me for my generous advice. Also, go fuck yourself. ;).
>.380 has as much energy as a .38 +P out of a 42
No
>43 on your waist that is as uncomfortable as a double stack 19
quadruple no
Yes
and
Yes
You must be new around here.
>saying there are other, potentially better options than a Glock in the same price range makes you an HK shill
>U MUST BE NEW LE COP OUT FACE
.38 spl +p is like weak 9mm, .380 is nowhere close to that kind of power.
