Why did you buy a Glock?

 

[G23SNT]

I went with Glock for multiple reasons.

Undeniable reliability
Accuracy
Safe Action Pistols - it's meant to fire but only if there is 1 in the head and the trigger is pulled.
Easy to break down.. Contrary to some sKeptics.
They look Good
Conversions.. "you can have 2 guns with just the change of a barrel".. but truly o extra parts required
Their Legacy

They are just simple quality pistols.

they work.

I lovem. Reliable, high capacity, accurate, easy to work on. Great all around gun.

The Rogue Warrior himself, Richard Marcinko claims to carry a glock 27 in his books. The founder of SEAL Team 6 can never be wrong. Glock has proven reliability, hence all the copy cats out there...XD's, Sigmas? Glock is the BEST

Well I was always drawn to the alure of Glocks reliability but never liked the way they felt in my hand so I went with smaller griped "plastic" guns. But after several disapointments I was able to get my hands on the Gen4 I know own..So I guess what drawn me to Glock was reliability and the mother load of parts and acc. available for them.

 

[dirtys0uthfl1]

I guess another way to look at it is, WHY ANYTHING ELSE?

The Rogue Warrior's opinion is that Glocks and H&K USP's are the best handguns out of the box, PERIOD, God I love his books.

All the above reasons AND reasonably priced to boot. Like KeithD said " they work"!

 

[dprice77]

They are simple yet very reliable and durable.

i'm waiting for the next one.

shooting a friend's 19 was my 1st glock experience and was way better than i expected.

All the above .But the big one for me was holster option's. Black tie event or nude beach theres a holster made for my glock.

 

[Tailhunter]

They are totally reliable and no external safeties to flip off.

Originally it was a duty gun and that was what all the other little boys were doing.

Too funny....

Thanks everyone. I had to post this thread, so people can get a glimpse why we love Glocks.

Jeez... I hope you're going open carry!!!!!

I like Glocks because of their reliability... It doesn't hurt than so many LEO's and military units stndardized on Glock pistols... that had to be for a reason... I like that they are not as heavy as some of the big all-steel pistols... Glocks seem more reasonably priced that some of the other pistols... lots of extra parts and mods for Glocks... and I think Glocks are very snazzy looking... very stylish for a pistol...

I think nude beaches are CCW only LOL

Before I bought my 19 I rented a few guns at the range and I liked the Glock. Their reputation as well as the price I got it for was what ultimately sealed the deal. Sucked having to wait 9 weeks for shipping but I am very happy with my decision. Over 500 rounds, at least 4 different kinds of ammo, no malfunctions whatsoever. And my CPL should be here any day now...

Well I wanted a .40 because I had never shot a .40 and during the ammo shortage .40 was really the only thing on store shelves. At first I wanted a Walther P99. Then I wanted an XD40, then I wanted a Walther P99 again. Then I figured that for the price of the Walther I might as well get an HK. So I wanted an HK USP Compact .40. Then I watched nutnfancy's video comparing the USPc .40 to the G23. This video didn't sway me one direction or the other, just made me consider Glock as an option.

So I researched Glock as much as I could and discovered that it's relatively easy to fully disassemble a Glock AND get replacement factory parts for it. That's what made my mind up and I couldn't be happier with my decision.

I have seen many of nutnfancy's YouTube videos... He is informative and entertaining... Hard to believe he is a Lt. Colonel in the military, though... Most of the colonels I have met are deadly serious... some of his videos are pretty good...

I got my Glock, because of what I have read about them, what friends said and each time I shoot it, I like it more than the last time.

What a great gun
