I hate to tell you, but you're definitely in the minority here. Although most would agree Glocks are utilitarian and ugly, I don't think I've ever heard anyone refer to a 1911 as ugly. IMO, the 1911 is the most beautiful handgun that's every been made. Probably why every manufacturer has their clone. Do a poll and I'm willing to bet 99 out of 100 dentists agree.
I misspoke, meant to say that I love 1911s and glocks are ugly. Have one of each.

Comparing Glock to Taurus is like comparing a Toyata to a Ford. They're not even in the same class. The Glock will run forever, under whatever conditions. I've yet to hear of any Taurus torture tests or 20000 round tests.
While this is true I'm never going to subject my Taurus to those kinds of extremes so it's irrelevant. Not bragging on Taurus, but I will never encounter those situations, and if I do, I'll bring a Glock.

Re: New Gun

Congratulations. I'm actually starting to warm up to Glocks, still uglier than a 1911 though :lol:

When I first bought my Taurus it went bang every time too, so if you look at only that we're on par. Jammed every other round though ;-) . Better now after the break-in.
