Torn between G26/27/33

[mikee0719]

Hey all,

I'm starting a new job where I will have to roam possibly in some undesirable areas of our great city at night. I have settled on a glock subcompact but cannot decide on caliber. 357, 40, and 9 all have their pluses and minuses so just wondering of those that carry what your preference is and why. My dad and brother both have the 43 and both times I have shot it it performed well just looking for more capacity and more proven design. The 9 is edging out based on shootability and the 31rd glock mags i have lol. the 357 interests me as i have never owned one. Any insight would be appreciated, thanks

G26 , that way you can use G19 mags with a grip adapter , more grip if needed and more capacity

33 w/ extra 9 barrel. You can adapt down but not up.

G26, because you will want to keep it in stock configuration for carry. Buy lots of ammo and practice good technique.

Glock 27 and get 9mm and 357 sig barrels

Glock 27 and get 9mm and 357 sig barrels

This is the answer you are looking for and the reason I will never own a "9mm Glock" again even though all of my Glocks shoot 9mm.

My favorite of those is the .357 sig. Just know that the G33 has a much snappier recoil than the G26 or the G27. The .357 sig ammo is more expensive and harder to find, but I think the better ballistics make it well worth it.

The 26 is hard to beat for concealed carry, replace the clip bottom plate, adds 2 more bullets and a pinky grip

Thanks for the replies everyone. I really wanted a 26 or 33, but pocket carry I think would be difficult in work pants. Thinking for now I will pick up a 43 TALO and keep the USP handy in the truck. If I'm in a really bad area I can always throw it on in a Safariland paddle.

26. The 33 sucks to shoot.
