Let me preface by stating I do not like the Glock design. It feels uncomfortable in my hand. I really dislike the way the trigger pull feels. These are my personal feelings they are not an evaluation of the worthiness of the design.
With the above disclaimer anyone who states the Glock will go off when dropped or in any way without a severe mechanical failure or someone pulling the trigger towards the rear of the frame is a liar or an idiot.

I use a Hogue Handall on my G23 and a Hogue Handall Jr on my G27.

I prefer the feel with the grips.
Good website for aftermarket things for Glocks.

My Personal Preferences are for M1911 variants, Sig designs, CZ75 style semis, and even S&W MDL 59XX and 69XX semi auto designs (even though I shall not purchase a new S&W unless and until they have totally gotten out of the deal with the devil they made). I just do not feel comfortable shooting the Glock design. I have shot some friend's Glocks and I am not quite as accurate with them as I am with the above mentioned designs. Mrs. harpseal is far more comfortable with her .357 wheelgun than any semi-auto but she can handle any if she must.

Yes, I am glad we are living in a nation where these choices are available although that right is as we all know being threatened. I cartainly recognize that the Glock is a well made and well design pistol but it is not my personal choice. I do not like the S&W Sigma series either. I have recently adopted a new back up the Sig imported Mauser M2 in .45 ACP It has an eight shot magazine is compact and easy to slip in a pocket. It has a long exceptionally smooth trigger pull that measures 5 lbs. I can keep a nice group at 25 yards and it is on center of the target. I like the way it feels in my hand. I like the way it shoots. Will it suit other's like it does me? I shall leave that to the market.

By the way I have tried some of the after market grip accessories for the Glock and they do seem to improve the feel but it is omething more subtle than even after market grips can improve that make me disfavor one for my own carry.
