I'm not a hater of Glocks, I just...well, I find them quite ugly. They are good in the since that they do what they are made to do...and they do fit that job very well.
I'm more of a person that wants a gun that looks good and shoots good.
I'm not meaning you per say... plenty of the FWC Florida Wildlife
Commision guys see a Glock come out and start wording out. I've read also that there are plenty of Glock haters out there Taurus haters to.
I think it's like most thing not made in USA. I also think now though the Glock is assembled here just that the parts are AUS. Taurus has a US based company here just that all that $ goes back to Brazil. I haven't research those as facts... just put it together as spoken facts.:shhh:
I have several custom built ruger 10/22's and a 3rd in the works. I do have to say they are incredibly fun guns both to work on and to shoot.
I spent a little time with a Glock once. I'm not a hater per say, and while the gun didn't jam on me I must say it also wasn't a very comfortable gun either. The gun was new and just very rough and angular. I certainly wouldn't want to shoot it regularly which I think is a must if you are planning to CCW.
Depends on what model. I have the model 30. it's a double stacked 45cal.
Holds 9 in the clip and one in the stack ( I don't carry that way). Very comfortable gun in the right hands. I can tell you that shooting it is a joy
it's light and durable. You have to be aggressive in your shooting stance &
compensation for the recoil associated with both the automatic and light weight.
The only draw back is the trigger mechanism... after shooting most handguns that trigger is very nerve racking. I suppose if your injured and only able to use one hand (could happen) then it would real come in handy, also it's fast out the draw, with no safety to worry about on the fly.:shhh:
