Glock 23.....What do you think?

[Guest Jennings382]

I can trade for a brand-new Glock 23 with the box and papers. Give me some opinions on the gun. Good or bad.

[Ropin4gold]

Its a good weapon, half of my dept. carries it. We have had no negative issues with them (other than the occasional loose front sight).

[Guest Bluemax]

What are you trading ?

[Guest jackdog]

ugly, but highly dependable. I have carried one for years and wow never shot my own ass off.

[Slappy]

I have the same question as Bluemax. What are you trading? IMO Glocks are hard to beat! The best at what they are, one of the most versatile and reliable pistols on the market, but butt ugly!

[DWARREN123]

Good gun if it fits you and you like the 40 S&W.

[poak]

I'm not a fan of the 40SW cartridge (gimme 9mm or .45 anyday), but I love the form factor of the G19 and G23.

[TGO David]

Great gun. If you're trading off a Lorcin, absolutely. If you're trading off a Wilson Combat, absolutely not.

[Guest Todd@CIS]

G23 would be my second choice if I could carry what I wanted at work (first being the G19).

[gunsablazin]

I was looking for a used 23 when I ran across a 2nd gen 22 and got that instead, it has been my carry gun for over a year now. The 23 should do fine they shoot good and are reliable, what more could you ask for?

What do they make you carry Todd?

Just curious as to what dept that aren't issuing Glocks ARE issuing.

Patrol and Defectives get their choice between the G22 or G23.

SWAT has to carry the XD45.

I had a difficult time deciding whether I wanted to order the 19 or 23. Being that I have the 26 and enjoy shooting it, I chose the 19. It will do everything I want a handgun to do and I know I will like it as much as I do it's little brother. A lot of people say get the 23 and if you don't like it you can change the barrel and go with 9mm. I like 9mm so it would have been stupid for me to try something else. I ordered directly from Glock and am taking advantage of their LE discount for retired military. Just my .

I like mine. No issues. I did buy a C barrel and slide for it as I wont shoot the bling one that came on it. I have only shot the C 50 rounds.

I love the G23. I sold mine and picked up a G27, but now I am looking to purchase another G23. If you carry an extra mag just pick up a couple of G22 mags and sleeve them. This will give you the extra rounds of a G22 in the extra mags. But yes, the G23 is an excellent gun. Carries/conceals just about as well as the G27 - not a ton of difference.

[Guest FroggyOne2]

Never having been a major fan of the Glock pistols.. I had bought one, a G22.. Then traded it for a G35. I will have to say, that after doing a .25 cent trigger job on it this morning, I don't think that I will be giving up the G35 anytime soon. I think in time, I will put a Vanek trigger in mine.. not sure as to which one yet.. that debate is still going on in my head.

[Guest Bill Lumberg]

One of the best all-around guns out there.

I carry a Glock 23 daily as my duty pistol. It has never malfunctioned and conceales well for off duty too. I purchased a Lone Wolf 9mm conversion barrel for cheaper practice and a couple of 33 round 9mm. magazines for fun.

Another G23 owner here. Love mine. Never had an issue with it so far. Then again ive only put about 1k rounsd through it at the range, but i think thats enough to get a feel.

[SHbicycle]

My wife got one in 93 and it has never failed to fire.

Meh....you obviously haven't heard how insignificant and incapable the underpowered 9x19 round is

[Guest spd455]

I currently own a multitude of handguns to include but not limited to S&W, Sig, H&K and multiple Glocks. But everytime I leave the house I'm carrying the Glock 23. You can't go wrong with it.

[wjh2657]

I own ten revolvers and I normally carry a J-Frame. In the winter I sometimes carry the only big bore Semi Auto I own ( I have the mandatory Ruger MKII rimfire of course), and that is a Glock 23. I love it, right size, reliable and easy to work on. It is probably the only "bottom feeder" EDC I will ever have, but I have full faith and confidence in it. Big words from a "wheelie" like me.

[crashgordan]

the G23 is an outstanding tool.

it is not sexy. it is not macho, but it is versatile, very hard to break and it works every time.

can carry anything at any price point, and this is my goto sidearm for all but ultra concealed carry. Sleeve a few G22 mags and you have a strong sidearm kit.

the XD is running right there with it...

[GLOCKMEISTER]

love the Glock 23.... we sell them faster then we can get them at the store. I Got one and have carried it for many years
