Thanks. Don't worry about my getting big-headed or anything. I'll always be the goofy person I've always been. The biggest challenge comes from all the hot women just throwing themselves at me when they recognize me. :-) Wait a minute, maybe that was just from a dream I had. Yeah, I think that was just in a dream. Sorry. :-)

My first Glock was a G26 and I regret selling it. I only did so to move to a slightly larger model, the G19. Although it fits my hand much better I wish I would have kept my G26 because I could have just gotten a grip extension for it and used G19 magazines and kept the same gun. Don't get me wrong, I absolutely LOVE my G19 but I really liked the versatility of that tiny G26 with the way you could adapt it into different configurations (grip, mags, etc). Live and learn . . .

It's like getting a G26 for about $130 (barrel's around $100 and I picked up a 9mm mag). Since 9mm ammo's cheaper than .40 cal, I should actually save money in the end.

I have to agree with you. I rented a Model 27 at a local gun range just to see how "snappy" the .40 S&W cartridge was. I was so "put off" that I bought one as soon as I'd turned the range rental in. I love this gun. I have a Gen 2 Model 19, and a Gen 3 Model 30, and I prefer the 27 to either of those. I like them all, but I like the 27 just a bit more.

prefer 45 or 9mm - the 45 deffinitely for power. its more of a slow back push like launching a rocket. the 40 is a bit snappy unless you go with a good brand with proper recoil springs and recoil suppression / Ruger and Glock mute the snappy 40 issue. ruger does a better job. but you wont find a baby ruger in 40 :)

It's not that a 40 sucks. 40 is a good round but... I think it is better in a carbine. Even Hickok can't fire that 27 nearly as fast as his 26 which for him will put out more damage per second than his 27 in the end. Also 9 is cheap to shoot. Also if you have smaller hands the 9 will just be more pleasant to shoot all around. With the right defense rounds a 9mm can get close to a fmj 45 for a very controllable platform. I also shoot 45s and prefer a heavier but steady push than a lighter yet snappier 40. All in user preference I guess. I used Hickoks videos and chose the 26.

If you carry a glock 19 or 17 as your primary handgun, the glock 26 makes for the perfect backup gun.

I don't know about that, modern semi-autos are just as reliable maybe even more reliable than revolvers.

boomzilla86 revolvers can still jam by the bullets moving forward under recoil, the only difference is semi autos are a lot easier to clear a jam then revolvers.

Andrew h revolvers still malfunction, not all the time but it is possible, the difference between a revolver malfunctioning and a semi-auto malfunctions is a semi-auto can be cleared way faster than a revolver.

I really love the Glock 27. I've always loved the 40 caliber round, and this gun has made its way to my heart very quickly. I only got it last week, and i've only shot it once, but I know it's for me.

@buch3r 13 жыл бұрын

Great video as usual. I was wondering, is your glock27 a gen4? The magazine release looks different, I wondered if the recoil is dampened more with the new spring compared to gen3 26?

I wanted to give u a big thanks for the baby Glock videos. I have watched them countless times in the past few weeks trying to decide if i wanted to buy one, from all the horror stories that are on the internet about the "Glock Grenade"... I ended up buying the Gen 3 Glock 27, and put 200 rounds down range sat, and love it!! Your video as well on cleaning the Glock was very helpful as well!!

Hickok, I would just like to say thank you for all the video's, you do a great job answering the questions that everybody has. I wanted to get a glock 27 but had never shot one and after watching your video's you answered every question I had in my head about that gun, I ordered my glock 27 after watching this video, again thanks for taking the time to make these video's ps. I wouldn't ever want to get into a gun fight with you, lol man you can shoot.
