Never owning a Glock is like saying you never owned a TV.
And never owning a 1911 is like never owning a Harley Davidson. I've never owned either. In both cases, there are more efficient, more modern and cheaper ways to get the same job done. Them Harleys and 1911's sure are purty though...Never owning a Glock is like saying you never owned a TV.
To each his own, I guess. Glocks are simple, reliable, unromantic tools.
Pros; Superior, durable magazine design. Magazines are cheap, available everywhere. Gun is completely user serviceable with no special tools. Parts are cheap and available. Reliable. Simple manual of arms.
Cons; Second most ugly pistol (Hi-Point takes first place here). Boring and uninspiring (think Toyota Corolla), basically, it's an appliance. Trigger is what it is, not great but can be learned. Cost is way too high for what it is. No second strike capability. Less than ideal ergonomics.
FWIW, the most I've ever payed was $450 total, off of ODT, for a LNIB G17 with box and all the factory stuff, three mags and night sights. I think I payed too much. Like I said in another post, they're an excellent $350 pistol. Great for self defense. Not so great for showing to your friends. They won't be impressed...
A well built 1911 or revolver is a work of art and a thing to behold. The Glock is an ugly soulless beast. It's the hammer in your tool box. It may be the best thing for the job but it's still a hammer.To each his own, I guess. Glocks are simple, reliable, unromantic tools.

Pretty much. Sometimes though, ya just need a hammer. FWIW, I don't own any engraved, nickel plated hammers with Italian leather handles either.A well built 1911 or revolver is a work of art and a thing to behold. The Glock is an ugly soulless beast.
