Soon to buy a Glock. I own an XD, CZ, and other weapons so this question only applies to Glock 17 or 19's only. If you were gonna buy one of the two which one and why?
we need to hit up precision one of these days and I'll bring both for you to try out and you can decide which you like better.
And Pangris, the 19 will hold those 2 "extra" rounds, just the mag won't be flush
Sounds good to me. When you get some time give me a call I'm game. I did read on the Glock Forum the 19 will shoot 17 mags.
I'm not keen on the 19's grip. I don't have big hands or anything but the grip is just too tight. The 17 and 26 are much more comfortable.
If it's for shooting, get a 17. Concealed, 26.
But it's whatever you're comfortable with.
19. It does everything the 17 does except hold those two extra rounds - but it is that much easier to conceal. For me, it carries like a compact but shoots like a full size gun.
I've shot the 17, 19, 34 great length both casually and in training, and the 26 a good bit - and my take is simple. The 19 is the best of the breed on balance.
