    nothing cool
    I have the G19 and G43. I like to minimize my EDC with a knife, phone, belt, and my G43. For me the G43 is perfect. (Like I said, for me). You can get into the whole single stack vs double, accuracy, blah blah. Don't get me wrong, the G19 is badass and I love to shoot it. But it's just too big and heavy for me to carry.
    If you didn't care about 9mm vs .380 I'd even consider the G42. I'm just lazy and wanted both of my guns to both be 9mm.

    Couldn't agree more. Kind of an odd choice for the title isn't it? Especially considering it's made in Austria. :confused:

    My opinion, which you asked for, is a full size generation 3 G17. My CCW is a .357 stubby revolver. My bedroom gun is the G17.

    Milled for specific red dot model at the correct height to co-witness with suppressor sights. More secure mounting than Glock's MOS.

    You can also send in an OEM slide to be milled for lower cost: https://suarezinternational.com/red-dot-installations/

    That's far more reasonable if you just MUST have a red dot on your pistol

    As with modding Tacos, the value equation can drops off quickly with "custom" parts. :laugh: I mean, a supercharger kit costs more than a longblock...

    Lmao....I feel ya, I'm just as bad.....she'll get passed with me cause I'll change guns 3 or 4 times sometimes until I figure which one I wanna carry. G20 is a good carry too.
    Ditto mines on a shoulder holster.

    This one for sure


    Just kidding, G19 (gen 4), can't go wrong.

    To those suggesting SIG's or other firearms the OP did ask which GLOCK to get :thumbsup:

    When does your 2017 taco come in? You'll fit in well in the 3rd gen section.

    Another vote for G19 here. I have a personal Gen 4, and carry a Gen 4 for work. I haven't had a single real issue with either. I've concealed carried it and open carried it in some nasty sand, jungle, etc. It has never not fired. I've taken it to some shooting courses too, and with extreme rapid fire it has had maybe two instances where it had a hiccup, but nothing a quick slide pull didn't fix. Talking 1,000 round days. I'm not a gun geek, so my care or dedication to brand in zero, but I like using something that always works and requires minimal maintenance.

    I was initially gonna build up a "19" over time with various aftermarket parts. Timberwolf frame, OEM slide....but damn! Aftermarket stuff gets $$$$$.

    I would go with a 19, initially it was going to be my first pistol, but I went with a HK instead. considering the Gen 4 glock next.
