I own multiple Glocks...17 22 and 23. I actually like how they feel in my hand and shoot. However, I don’t carry striker-fired handguns concealed carry as a rule. I’ve heard of too many accidental discharges with a round in the chamber, even among Law Enforcement officers. Couple of bad cases where people accidently discharge when sitting, before getting out of their car to pump gas, etc...they adjust their firearm and touch the trigger. Blam! A year later they get their leg amputated after necrosis sets in. The smart way to carry concealed is with a round in the chamber. The only way I would ever do that is with a double/single action, like my favorite CZ’s, Berreta 380, etc... with hammer down, or any number of .357 revolvers. Then again, there are many who do carry Glocks and never have a problem. I just don’t want to take the chance.

My cc piece is a CZ75 compact. I like the DA 1st shot. Also like condition 1 cocked and locked. My sig 938 is similar for when I need a tiny gun.

Firearm worked exactly as designed. "They" didn't keep the booger hook off the bang switch. And apparently didn't use a holster that covered the trigger guard.
