I also switched to it because of the ar9 with glock mags, nice to have one set of mags for both Insurance specialist, 20+ years experience toddjohnson@greattiminginsurance.com

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. .

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.

The top selling handgun on Gunbroker for June 2020 was the Glock 19.

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.

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. Originally Posted By: theserxtremedays Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large numbers
