Glocks are well designed.
Glocks are very reliable.
Glocks are not inheriently dangerous.
The Glocks polymer frame is excellent.
Glocks are reasonably accurate for their purpose.
Glocks will kill a bad guy when needed.
The Glocks are funtional, pratical, reliable, affordable and sufficently deadly.

However, I just do not like the bloody damn black plastic brick nor can I shoot the ugly thing worth a damn. How many times in you life have you heard it described as elegant, sleek, or pretty?

The 19ll and the Browning Hi Power do it right for me. As an added bonus you can beat someone about the head and shoulders with a 1911 or Hi Power and it will make an impression and if wielded with sufficient enthusiasm a depression.

I guess I am showing my age, but I like the feel of a chunk of elegant blued iron in my hand. I can also shoot it well. I just can not shoot a glock.

I feel better now. :)

I have a Glock 9mm and a Springfield 1911.

The 1911 sits in my bedside table awaiting the next intruder.

My wife has the Glock.
