My Glock 29

[willis68]

I have been wanting one of these forever,

Gen 4 Glock .29 , I love this pistol and I installed my favorite sights on it Trigicon HD 

[hipower]

Congrats! I had a G20 but wimped out. Not man enough to handle that powerful man-stopper round.

[Jamie Jackson]

Definitely congrats Willis, and welcome to the "Glock-side"! 

Trijicon HD are my favorite sights as well. Good choice imho.

Nice blaster!

I still love my Gray framed Gen 4 20, honestly I think they handle the recoil exceptionally well, 

I actually enjoy shooting Underwood 180 grain, that seems to be like high octane fuel for my big bore Glocks, very accurate and powerful

True, recoil isn't excessive. I just didn't really want another caliber to feed since it didn't really suite me. Annnnddd...one of brother-in-law's buddies wanted it. So off it went.

I only have 9 and 10mm in Handguns these days, those two calibers suit my needs perfectly

Nice pocket rocket. Have you already gotten a holster and mag pouches for it? Other question is why did you go with yellow?

I went with yellow because my other two sets of Tricon HD sites have Orange, so I wanted something different 

no mag pouches yet

I hear that the green front ring is actually easier to spot in low light than the orange front ring is.

I believe I read that studies have been done and the human eye sees the color green faster and more vividly than any other color. That is why recently lasers and "red dot sights" are becoming available in green.

G29 has always been on my short list.  Have had a Gen4 G20 for a few years now.  Sent it off recently to have milled for an RMR cut and should have it back later this week.  Underwood is definitely the way to go on 10mm.

Nice specimen there... I like carrying my 29 on weekends, especially up at the farm. I think I actually like shooting it a bit more than the 20. Eventually going to round out the family with the 40. I don't need one but I sure do want one

I really like my gen4 G20. I find it pretty comfortable to shoot with underwood 200gn HC and accurate. I've been meaning to take a look at the 29 some day to see how it compares in size to the 19. 

Nice gun!

It is the same as your G20 only shorter, same width so thicker than the 19 I was surprised at how well I shoot it,

My EDC carry is a G29.  I love it.

Yes, mine will be as well, with Underwood Gold Dot 180 Grain ammo, my G29 loves this ammo

[willis68]

To be completely honest with the Trigicon HD sights I see the Orange and Yellow front sights both very quickly  I absolutely love these sights and could not recommend them enough 

[sybo]

Ahhhh the mighty 10!! A reloaders dream! I am a HUGE 10 mm fan. My backup is a Glock 20 or my Dan Wesson Bruin for Wild Hogs! 200 gr hardcast loaded NUCLEAR!!! I carry a 29 quite often. Love love love!!

Nice, it's the next and last handgun on my list, I plan to use it for my woods/hunting handgun with a 4.5' KKM barrel. It looks like the Pearce grip extension will be a requirement for my hands and even the x-grip for the 15-round mags to use as well.

Not for me as yet. I've said that for years. Still find myself lusting after more pistols.

I find myself thinking about my "next" one while I'm walking out of the store with a new one. It"s a disease I think. LOL

Yes, That's me. I picked up my Copper 10/22 Takedown this afternoon...and caught myself thinking about the pretty and shiney Colt 9mm in the case.

I'm afraid I'm done for.
