If you were to own one 9mm GLOCK pistol, which one would it be?
Im going to build an AR in 9mm using GLOCK pistol magazine. Would be nice to have a sidearm with common mags.

I picked up a 19x a month or so ago. Best of both worlds for me. I also switched to it because of the ar9 with glock mags, nice to have one set of mags for both

I was thinking either the 17 or the 19X. Both hard to find right now as well.

I have one 43x for me and one for my wife. Bought 15 round magazines from Shield Arms. We love them for concealed and open carry. I didn’t think I would ever own a Glock but these are great weapons.

Good luck finding one. Websites are all sold out as are all the dealers out here in SW Tx for over 100 miles.

Searched for a G19 on Gunbroker.... wow!
I really hate to do what I am about to do, because it will be very painful for you.

Every American needs at least one Model 17 I have to agree. I always had a 19 but recently added a 45 and 41. The last edition was a Gen 4 17 and I think it's the best of the bunch.

Just one? I’d go with the 19. Personally, I believe it is the most versatile. It’s small enough to semi-comfortably conceal and large enough to shoot well. It also has good capacity for its size...not too big but not too small.

I like the G19 over the G17. Just fits my hand better. Currently have a Gen 5 G19 and a Gen 4 G40. The G40 is a whole other dimension of wow.

Glock 19. As others have said, small enough to conceal but large enough to give you plenty of firepower. They’re not my favorite pistol, but settled on Glocks as my CC/defensive pistols due to their utilitarian nature, and how prolific they are.
Glock 19 for CC and 17 with a TLR1 for the nightstand. The other advantage for me is owning a PCC that accepts Glock magazines.

My favorite Glock has always been the 17, but I will say the best combination of accuracy, controllability and concealability is the Glock 19.
The top selling handgun on Gunbroker for June 2020 was the Glock 19.
Just my .02, LeonCarr

Plain vanilla Glock 9’s.. Wow I just sold a like new G19 Gen4 with night sights to my brother in law that was carrying a Sig2022 on duty for $420. Should have sold it on Gun Broker lol. I do have a G17 and 34 and 43x in the safe collecting dust since I bought the shadow systems elite 920. Might make a little money on GB this weekend lol.

My only Glock left is a G43. Its the only carry gun Ive kept for an extended period. Its reliable and perfect size.
Other than that I sold off my other Glocks and replaced with H&K and Sig.

Like jeepers, I don't have any Glocks left except for my trusty old Glock 17. A 19 conceals better and uses both 17 and 19 length mags. Switched to the S&W M&P 2.0 in full size and compact. The 3.6" compact is a better concealed carry option than the 19 in my opinion and uses the 15 round compact and 17 round full sized mags. To me it's much more comfortable grip wise and I shoot the M&P's just as well as the Glocks. All that being said, I will not get rid of my Glock 17. It's been with me forever in all sorts of conditions and has never let me down.
Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers

I'm partial to my Gen 4 19. It's seen a few upgrades. Stipple job changed the grip angle, and for the better. I love my M48 as well.
