Gone Glock

[Yosarian87]

Went to the show today, had a great time... Didn't end up getting a G19 or a XD9. We instead went with the G17. Did some shooting at the range saturday and fell in love with the G17. Found a great price for it, and had her uncle give it a look over and went with it. Put 250 rounds through it as soon as I got home. Then pulled out the P95...I will never shoot that thing again. G17 is my new favorite. Now it's time to accessorize and have some fun.

Welcome to the dark side. I have shot a few other handguns that arent Glock, and I prefer my Glock hands down.

I have a Glock 22 and it is one of my favorites. The reason being...I can hit what I aim at with it.

Great pick. Like the enthusiasm. Hope you get to enjoy it for a long time to come. Glock is holding some competitions at eagle creek this summer. maybe you'll enter with your new gun. Joshua

I bought a Glock 17 off of my former boss a year or two back. I was, (at the time,) totally against them on principle, and was just thinking that for $250, it would make a great range gun.

I fell in love with it. I'm very pro-Glock now. Enjoy your new purchase. And remember; Glocks get lonely, and they need friends.

No arguement here.... I have carried a Glock once or twice myself.... And I too prefer the G19 & G17.

Hello and I hope that you enjoy your Glock 17 for years to come. For years, I didn't own one, but saw more than a few on various police firing lines when I was a police firearm instructor. I pretty quickly came to see that the things were usually reliable as homemade sin.

Eventually, I bought A G17. It was initially to be a "loaner" for folks in CHL classes I taught, but as time went by, I found myself shooting it quite a lot myself!

In short, I think that Glocks are generally pretty darned good handguns. If interested, here are some reports done on them:

Enjoy your pistol.

Best to you and yours.

The Glock is very fine handgun. I regard it as the AK-47 of handguns. Not in a disparaging way but as a mention of respect. It goes bang everytime you pull the trigger and is accurate enough to hit at what you are aiming within pistol range.

I used to have a G23 with 9mm and .357 Sig barrels making it wonderfully adaptive. I am sorry I sold it.

Congrats on the 17! They will multiply, you can't have just one.

G17, the original Glock. Nice pick up!

The weird thing is I got a call from my dad last night, and he told me a buddy of his had a Glock 23 ( I beleive) for sale and a Kimber as well on the out...I offered a pack of gum and $50 bucks...I was denied...Almost picked up another one.

Can’t beat a Glock tried and true. But I never met a gun I didn" like.
