Do Glocks Suck or Not

[deerslayer]

Any time.

Thus, the Gen. 3 guns have the silly "loaded chamber indicator" extractor and the "target" grips (finger grooves/dimples on each side). Many features are laughable, but serve an important purpose, as dictated by the BATF. How would you like to see one of the "cheap" rear sights the guns are imported with? As if the craptastic stock sights aren't cheap enough!

They get worse?

EDIT:

These?

[deerslayer]

G34 and 35 come with cheap adjustable sights. I'm not positive, but I believe the importation adjustable sight is a completely different animal--probably one I hope to never encounter.

Those are exactly what's on my G34. I can't for the life of me imagine what could be a cheaper adjustable sight .

[Guest Glock Jockey]

Love those sights.Glock don't make no crap.

Glocks suck! They look like a freakin' timing light and feel about the same. I traded for a model 36 just to see what the fuss was all about, hated it. Couldn't give it away. Had it for sale on here forever. I'll never buy another. JMB got it right! Hillbilly.

[PackinMama]

Hillbilly J, you definitely have a right to your opinion, but you really shouldn't judge all Glocks by a G36. That one is very different than all the others.

[Guest Grout]

+1 The 36 is an odd ball model for sure.If it had a full grip it would be the cat's meow.

In Honor of Marswolf, may he rest in peace, Glocks Suck!

Glocks are dangerous, Google search Glock Kaboom. They shoot their owners RIGHT in the ass!!

And BTW, Hillbilly is right, they DO look like a freaking timing light!!! all of them

ugly little bricks...

Actually timing lights look more like hair dryers. The 36 isn't exactly indicative of the ergos of other Glocks being that it is a single stack and has a short grip frame. Just like the ergos of the Subcompacts, Compacts and Full-Size Glocks all differ from each other.

But whatever floats your boat. One of the nice things about capitalism is that you have a myriad of choices out there for handguns so you get to pick the one you like the best.

I own 3 Glocks. 21, 23, and 36. I feel they are like a AK47. Drop in the dirt and keep on going. I love my Para's and AR's. But when the shtf. I'll have a glock as a side arm.

[Guest Rugerman]

That points system is interesting and completely new to me. Learn something new everyday!

[molonlabetn]

I had a dream that I was fighting zombies with a Glock the other night...

Woke up in a ditch, screaming, with 'get off the x' tattooed all over my body.

Damn tequila.

[Angus]

Shot a G21...very nice gun. I have big hands, and you know what they say...big hands....big Glock.

Love em....buy em...hate em....buy something else....opnions are like teeth...nooo, wait..nm.

[Guest slim]

I have had a model 27 since around 95, love it only complaint the grip is a little big for my hands, wish they would come with 3 or 4 grip straps like many other guns do. But for the money there is no better!

[Almond27]

XD's are right around same price and they are better:p

Glocks have been around a lot longer, than a new kid on the block the XD, there is an article on this forum by L.E. about how they are having problems with their XDs, with certain types of ammo! Read it and get rid of yours and get a glock!

[strickj]

Wait,what!? You really mean not all types of ammo work in all guns

[Angus]

H.O.L.Y. C.O.W....^^^^ woulda never thunk it huh?

But I still like a Glock over an XD

[Guest EDWSRTN]

I don't care for them myself . Rather carry the S&W.

[Guest Jcochran88]

Never really been a fan, that is until I had the oppurtunity to fire a few rounds through a model 22. Sweet! I currently have an xd 40 subcompact but will definately be looking for a glock down the road!!!!

[LA_357SIG]

Hey Deer, you can use the little post thing that is attached that changes out the backstrap, turn it a quarter turn and pull out. It's right on the base of the grip....or at least my M&P 45 has that...I'd guess they all have that?

I had a M&P40c and I could reach the disconnect with my pinky finger. That grip retainer rarely got used.

Anyway, I like Glocks. Owned a 17,27,32 and carry a 19. Had a M&P40c and a XD-9 (not for very long), sold them and went crawling back to a Glock.

[Guest Rugerman]

Not a big fan of plastic. I was at first, that has dwindled.

[tbuford]

Although I will always be partial to my Sig....I carry a G27 w/extensions...the 229 will pull my pants down before I get to the car...the Glock is lighter more compact and easier to conceal, deadly accurate as well...which is what is needed for ccw...but the Sig?.....buttery smooth....
