Glock 19 Review: The Best All Around 9mm Today?
19FortyFive ^ | 2/22/2021 | Richard Douglas

The Glock 19 is known for its boxy polymer and metal frame, mystical reliability, and concealability. In fact, it’s one of the best-concealed carry pistols and has become the go-to for the masses. But is this firearm for you?

Glock 19 Review: What Makes This Gun Stand Out?

The Glock 19 features an iconic square shape, with the bottom frame being made from a durable polymer and a metal slide.

Does it really matter if you can’t get no ammo?

Probably one of the best, yeah.

Nevermind the people who cry about the trigger pull.

It’s a trigger. Train with it.

My only real gripe about the glock is they’re boring, but I’m a guy who’s into mauser C96’s, lugers, old antiques you don’t see anymore

To it’s credit it does give the spray and pray cops a better chance of stopping their targets.
I’ll stick with my PPK and Astra.

Ford vs Chevy vs Dodge vs Toyota vs Nissan =

Glock vs Sig vs Smith vs HK vs FN vs CZ vs Walther vs whatever other gun maker

All depends on how one feels in your hands, trigger, weight you’re comfortable with, price, sights, modifications, etc etc etc, but feel how it feels in your hands being the most important.

Lots of great guns out there, but I am a Glock nerd

Agreed. But I prefer my handguns to have a hammer, a safety, and 1911 trigger mechanism.

Forgot to add Old Faithful. My bad.

I have 2. Love them. Not as easy to conceal but they’re awesome.l

And I’m not sure you can beat the ergonomic feel of a 1911 in your hand and those single action triggers.

No striker fired pistol can be the best anything...other than a door stop.

The 23 is much more fun to shoot.

The 19 is very portable and with 15 rounds on tap what’s not to like except the muzzle flip.

LOL, my feelings exactly.

Plastic guns with no hammer just are not my thing.
