I am a Glock convert after years of thinking I would never own one. Have a 19, 23, 34, 43x now and am waiting greedily for local shops to get a Gen 5 20 MOS. For concealed carry IWB I really like my 43x with aftermarket 15rd mags. No idea how they fit that many rounds in that tiny thing. Most of the time I carry the 19 because I prefer OWB under a jacket or flannel.
I’ve never once had a single one of them FTF. Added a Timney trigger to the 34 and have done trigger polishes to the rest which makes a big difference, and can shoot all extremely fast and well.

The best self defense gun is the one that you are most practiced and comfortable with. Every one has different preferences

$200.00 each - buy them now, cant go wrong!
There is your investment
Buy them for $200 and flip them for double.
I have owned a few Glocks, don’t really care for their grip angle. But they all went bang when they were supposed to and hit their target when I did my part. They are a very dependable.

I like the Glock 17 & carry the Glock 19 or the 43X. When I go to Alaska I bring the 20 with 3 mags. I like the ease of use and with a few mods they are great shooting and fool proof side arms.

I would get the Glock 30 and convert it to 10mm. The Ghost mod is only $20 and massively improves the trigger.
I've shot the 27 with the pinky extension but still didn't care for it. A nice little carry gun but pretty snappy.
I think most compact 9mms shoot about the same. I'd take a 19 over the 26 even though it is obviously bulkier.

I carry at work doing underground utilities. Talking to a few other guys in the construction field (not even dirt guys but framers, plumbers, HVAC) I got a lot of feedback from them about them getting jammed up with dirt and sawdust and whatnot. I got the G19 because it was supposed to be super reliable and it was pretty highly recommended by some folks on this site. I clean it every few months or so or after I shoot it but I make a point not to clean it out before I shoot recreationally.
I've checked it a handful of times and it's always got a decent dust/debris layer in it but it's never failed in any aspect. I don't let it get too bad but that confidence has kept me a glock believer.
Also, I have a rule that I never pass up a good deal on a firearm I can afford so I'd snatch them all up if I were you.

theyve been described to me as the ak-47 of pistols. can absolutely beat the piss out of them and they still pew pew. im hard on stuff and thats why i went that route. couldnt envision myself buying a nice kimber, colt, etc and beating it to death like i have with mine.

My conceal is the Glock 26. its a good little gun and fits perfectly in my rather small hands.
I think my only complaint with Glocks is how bulky they are, with the exception of the .380 G42.

I bought a Glock 23 on my 21st birthday in 1993. I’ve added to the collection over the years. Accurate, reliable and dead easy to maintain.

Be very careful with aftermarket parts for Glock. Old Gaston Glock made a very functional firearm and the specs are right on. I deal with lots of glock as a certified armorer with my job and people try and put all kinds of gee wizz on a glock to make it sexier and EVERY time there is an issue that pops up with reliability. Just like stated before, Glock isn't sexy or cool looking, but she always runs when needed. Just my 2 cents.
