Very nicely done!
Thats exactly how i rationalized it....ha ha!karder wrote:Makes sense to me. No .45 ammo so you had to buy a 9mm.
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 thoughQuahog wrote:I've got a G19 too and it's a nice gun. The one thing I can rely on with the Glocks is that they go bang every time!!
. Better now after the break-in.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.karl wrote:I'm actually starting to warm up to Glocks, still uglier than a 1911 though
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.karl wrote: When I first bought my Taurus it went bang every time too, so if you look at only that we're on par.
You can buy a .40 to 9mm lone wolf conversion barrel for about $100 (last time I checked. I also have looked at one for my 23) for your 23. Just pick up a magazine or two and you'll have a "G19".E150GT wrote:I really really want a 19! <edit>... I'll just have to live with my 23. NIce buy
A 1911 is like the model wife... beautiful but high maintenance. The Glock is the "not much to look at but, she's got a great personality and...boy can she cook" kind of wife.jeeperbryan wrote:Really nice. I've been considering one of the new Gen 4 Glock 22s.

I misspoke, meant to say that I love 1911s and glocks are ugly. Have one of each.jeeperbryan wrote:

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.jeeperbryan wrote:Comparing Glock to Taurus is like comparing a Toyata to a Ford.
