    I had a Colt 1911 in Iraq. I have no idea how many 18B’s had messed with it. “Highly modified” is an understatement.

    My only possible 'issue' with the Glock as a military/SOCOM sidearm, especially in its Gen 3 or 4 configuration, is that it may be a tight squeeze for a gloved hand with the small trigger area and the finger grooves. That's where at the time I figured something like the Sig P320 Compact was ideal, and later the Gen 5 which at least removed the finger grooves....and where the earlier Sig P226 probably shined. But yeah, it makes total sense to switch to the 19, or maybe the model 45 with the 17-rd capacity.
    What I'll also give Glock over designs like the Sig P320 or HGK VP9 is that Glock mechanism is so simple and robust, seemingly less small finicky parts than the others like sears and pins and extra leaf springs, it just seems more ideal to stand up to the rigors of use and elements. Some people criticize that simplicity as being 'cheap' (misguidedly so, IMO), but I see it as the real genius behind the design.

    Couldn't agree with you more... I love the 1911, I love the .45 and 40 S&W is also a favorite of mine, but with modern bullet technology the 9mm is probably the best option out there.

      I agree. I do think that the .40 has found a nice niche in the 10 round limited states though.
      Advances in 9mm ammo have made 9mm a pretty good round, but everyone forgets that the .40 has benefited from those advances too, and still beats 9mm, at least in terms of terminal ballistics.

      @@davidmorgan9095 Of course the 10mm has more muzzle energy but you reach a point of diminishing returns once you get past a certain point when it comes to handgun calibers. A stand pressure .45ACP 230 grain ball round traveling at the standard 830 fps yields about 360 ft-lbs of energy, a 124 grain NATO spec 9mm at 1200 fps is roughly 400 ft-lbs of energy and a 180 grain .40 S&W traveling at 1050 fps will give you about 420 ft-lbs of muzzle energy. I don't know anyone who would wanna be shot by any of those rounds. With modern bullet technology the 9mm is probably the best balance between stopping power and ammo capacity plus with the cost and availability of 9mm you can practice and train a whole lot more. I have many pistols in 9mm, .40, .45ACP and I have a ten-mil aswell. My theory is 9mm for the hood, 10-mil for the woods, because the 10mm definitely shines if you have to deal with thick skinned heavy boned 4 legged predators when loaded with the proper bullets, but a .380, 9mm, .40 or .45ACP with good bullets and proper shot placement will definitely render a 2 legged predator harmless 😉🤗

And that first trigger pull pales in comparison to the trigger pull on a good striker fired pistol. And today's modern striker fired pistols have excellent triggers. People always criticize the Glock, but the trigger on the Gen 5 is quite good. Not as good as a PPQ, but very good.

The FNX family of guns all have ambidextrous 1911 style safety levers that serve a dual purpose as a de-cocking lever when pushed down further. I should specify that I do not carry this gun ever, it's my competition gun and way too big for me to carry anyway.
      My Glock 26 was immediately disassembled and polished. I replaced the sights with tru-glo tritium/fiber optic, put an extended take down bar in and considered it good to go. Eventually I bought a variety pack of internals to play with and tried a few different firing pin, safety plunger, and trigger spring combinations. I settled on stock plunger and firing pin springs and the stock trigger bar. By having the 3.5 ghost connector bar and a heavy trigger spring I get a slightly heavier trigger pull but it is a cleaner and less spongy pull. Personally I feel like the heavier pull is beneficial when under stress and speeding through a draw from appendix. Practice is always the most important thing and I keep my finger off the trigger until on target but I like the extra safety.

    I like and have used all of these pistols, the mk23 its like carrying a brick, but it is still a good shooter, but it is too big and bulky.
    From experience with all these handguns in desert environments and forest environments, hammer fired with sand and mud don't agree. Cocked and locked carries the risk of being even more prone to jam.
    This has made me gravitate toward striker fired for a combat pistol.
    Glock is not a bad choice as long as it has maritime spring cups. Cause getting in water happens, especially crawling through the forest.
    I used to hate on glock for a long time. But then I used it in rough places, and that changed mind.
    As a caveat, I have seen malfunctions in all of these models, but getting a Glock back in the fight is the easiest, cause its just got to get back into battery. A stuck hammer requires cleaning to fix and you can't do that in the middle of a fight.
    So if im going into a rough environment for work its a glock, until they get a striker fired pistol that convnces me to switch up. But honestly I really think the tech isn't really advancing, so probably going to have it be my choice until phasers are a thing 😂

    Sig all the way if its a pre-2005 Sig. The P320 is a great gun after the trigger and trigger bar change, but I still trust the Glock 19 more than the P320, untill the P320 can prove itself. Its an individual gun issue, you buy a Sig, you better prove that gun before you carry it. The p320 trigger is great, the Glock trigger is good but not great, though safer! Again train with the p320 and you can be safe with it, but its a much shorter lighter pull!

      Bit of personal preference here but if you pull the stock trigger disconnect and trigger reset spring and replace them with a ghost connector and high strength trigger spring, you get a really nice firm trigger that doesn't "squish" like stock Glock triggers.
      Edit: this is done on my personal gen 4 Glock 26 that I use for carry. Although I have not used a pressure gauge on it I think the trigger pull comes in at 6lbs

    For all that we own and enjoy, and in "normal" circumstances chose to carry, Glock is the 1 and only when Doomsday dawns. While striding downtown among the sheeple, concealability of a pocket pistol is of great advantage, and to repel a mugger at arms length or a carjacker from behind the steering wheel out the drivers side window, a snubbie revolver is ideal. Behind the cash register of a place of business, a 1911 is very authoritative. Wheelguns simple to operate and store in ready condition are useful for adult family members to defend the homestead. But in government work on the battlefield or enforcing the law a wundernine is the way to go.
