I’ll stick with my fn

@@andybars8672 to each their own. FN makes good pistols too.

@@zipper978 agreed I also love Glock. People who hate and can’t be objective will say crazy things. Being honest without glock it’s hard to say what modern day pistols consist of.

He carried a 226. Closet Sig lover must be getting a check from glock. Lol

When I was on duty I carried a Glock 20 / 10 MM always felt better with the fire power and end up carrying a Glock 22/ .40 cal. Wearing both on the hip.

Nightstalker?

So you were in droping in to camp Marmal for refueling and rearmorment then during O.E.F.?

are the Glock produced in Austria or in the USA ? It seems that the USA renamed every weapon with a M but the G17*19 is still called glock 17/19 therefore i suppose Glock didn't give the USA trhe licence to produce their Glocks .?

I'm left handed & ignored most Glocks up until 2014. Gen 4s then Gen 5 pistols. My 1st Glock was a factory refit police model 21 gen 4 .45acp. I owned a Glock grey 20 10mm, a few 26s, a 33 .357sig gen 4 briefly. Glocks work well with a few upgrades but they are excellent pistols.

How’s the recoil on the 43x imma pick one up in few days

@@albertreade7607 That’s kind of relative, however I find it much less snappy than my Springfield hellcat, which is in the same class.

19x,45,47 are all amazing.

Aren't the G19x and G45 very similar

Agreed. Love the square angles on everything

I feel the same way. I was born in 2000 and grew up seeing mostly Glocks in movies, tv shows, on law enforcement, in video games, mentioned in songs, and seeing everyone at the range primarily shooting Glocks. I guess it is my generation's version of the Beretta 92, Sig P226, and 1911s (also revolvers) that many people fell in love with based on what they saw back in the day. Because of this, I'm a little bias towards Glocks. The simplistic design and look is so iconic that I've always found it attractive.

My 2nd Gen Glock 19 will not die after 30 years. I had to sell it, so I can get a new Gen 5 Glock 45. 🤣

I prefer the look too. I actually don't like the ultra jagged almost toy like looking SIG's and Springfield. They have so many corners and cavities and it just looks like a child designed those to me. It's too "futuristic" looking to me. I prefer the smooth and clean look of the Glock.

@@jacobpetersen5662 likewise. Those serrated to hell guns remind me of toys from my childhood. Although I will say that FN 509 looks great

Me too, Glock 21 SF. You are so right. Best pistol for law enforcement and military.

Which caliber? Just curious

@@Atlasowl 9mm. Carried the 17 in uniform and the 19 while in investigations. 34 while on SRT. I also EDC off duty with the 26 for a while, up until the 43 came out.

I can relate since 2013 with the same experience.

@@TruTube.1. they dont

Please recommend to your higher up at glock, to put a thumbs safety on glocks. Glock don't listen to the people buying glocks..

@@GreatWhiteStud lol

Better extractors too. Glock uses a coating that wears over time and causes eradicate ejection and stove pipes sometimes. Fixed mine with apex extractor. Love the gun now. It was also not weak ammo or limp wrist. Other guns didnt have this issue.

Well said!

We just dummy cord everything to us now regardless of losing something or not.

The cord for the FNG was usually cherry colored 😂

Left my rifle outside my. Tent in Afghanistan while I was shaving,my Sargeant had me dummy corded to it for two weeks.

How long is that lanyard and what is it connected to? How do you draw and shoot with it?

Did you say clip marine

Yes! The 19x? That leading edge grip lip is an issue for mag compatibility. I like how the lip keeps my pinky onboard so I have not removed it yet.

MARSOC Marines bought Glock 19s to support larger .45acp M45s but after a few years, the generals, MARSOC officers said: screw it, we'll just carry Glock 19s as sidearms. Colt Defense wasn't thrilled but Glock made $$$.

I only have 600 rounds through mine so far but not a single jam even with steel ammo in the beginning.

I live in CA, so I can’t get this. Only if your an LEO.

@@MrDrew-qh2es Sorry to hear that my friend. Fortunately for me I live in FL. I hope you’ll have the opportunity to purchase a G 45 one day. In my opinion and for my purpose it’s the best 9mm Glock I’ve ever owned. Great night stand gun with the Streamlight TLR7 and with loose fitting clothes not difficult for CCW. Glock 19 slide on a 17 frame essentially with a great trigger that gets smoother with use. I’ve added TruGlo Pro tritium fiber optic sights. These equip all my Glocks (5) plus a Springfield Ultra Carry 1911 compact.

@@topturretgunner that sounds like a sweet and with a lot of freedom haha Cheers mate 🥂

@@MrDrew-qh2es All the best to you in the “Peoples Democratic Republic of California”. Be safe. 👍

If it ain’t broke don’t fix it apparently

Glock WAS the innovation. Glock rocked the gun market. Aside from that, the degree to which they have adapted the same, basic design for such a wide selection of calibers, and different applications for the pistol, is pretty cool. What do you need a handgun to do? Yeah, Glock has one that does that.

If some of my guns had that trigger-pull I'd be a happier camper!

@@SpartacusColo that is not true, nothing was new in glock back in 1981, hk just sucks at marking. It kinda same like Microsoft an ibm. Windows is/was trash. Os/2 was better, but ibm can’t market.

@@heaterfamily The VP70 does not have a good reputation. The guys on InRange TV pretty much trash the gun: bad sights, bad trigger, etc. Glock did the same thing, but it was a much better pistol and did, indeed, revolutionize the gun market. All major gun manufacturers started their own polymer-frame, wonder-9 line because of Glock.

I like those tritium sights too, not those stock garbage ones they always come with

To.Hell.And.Back

The problem with most "gun experts" who work in gun shops is the amount of pure Fuddlore that is passed off as fact by people who should know better......

Guy in the gun store was right

@@bruceschermerhorn4434 yawn

@@bruceschermerhorn4434 I bet you think a pink Kimber is the best lmao

I agree with you 100%.!!! I carried a G19 on Duty for 19 years, I've since retired and my Department allowed.me to purchase it for fair market value ($250) and I'm still carrying either the G19 or a G26. One thing about Glocks they go bang everytime you pull the trigger and you could never go wrong by choosing to carry one 👍🏽

Get a Sig!!

@@billric1945if your into your gun going off in the holster I agree….

I have two Glock 17s, but recently added the G48, and yes, it is much easier to conceal. Looking forward to getting some of the 15 round aftermarket mags for it.

I dont like the grip angle of the glock most of all

Nyet. 19(x) is fine.

HOPEFULLY HE DROVE IT OVER HIS GLOCK AND NOT YOURS!!🤷‍♂️😂😂

@@Plainsimple67 no, it was the instructors and soon I was going to be that instructor. Either way, the weapon held up great and no problems. I bet my life on it for over 10 carrying it on the job and never even had so much as a stovepipe malfunction with it.

EVERYONE TALKS ABOUT ITS LOOKS AND THEIR GRIPS, BUT SAY NOTHING ABOUT IT'S RELIABILITY

How the hell do you break 3 HK handguns? They are extremely well built they are just overpriced because Glock does the same thing for 30% less in price.

I never had issues with my h&k

A lot of people don’t have the HK money

@@kaceyle4706 I had a USPc 9mm. They are super well built, I just loathe their triggers. I always leaned towards Glocks and Sigs.

@@adamelam6385 I had p30L lem 9mm , and vp9l . I’m okay with the trigger .

WHAT IF THEY ARE AFTER THE STATE PROSECUTOR??!!😂😂😂

Enough said. Tier 1 operators NAVY SEALS!!! I'll follow their advice over ANYONE ELSE!

Me too

The G34 shoots way better than the 19, 19x, or 17.

@@HarryManback0 If you can shoot, it doesn't matter. The G43 has a totally unnecessary barrel length unless you might be a competitive shooter. There's a reason millions of service people wanted the shorter slide.

The 45 is the best to me too. I don't like glocks, but if I did I would have a 45 and 19x

@@HarryManback0 45 is better tbh because u can throw a compensator on a 45/19 length slide and have the same length as a 17 and much less felt recoup compared to a 17 & 34.

if you shoot staccato one time i think you will change your mind.

If you don’t mind me asking, what gen glock did you first shoot? I asked this because you said you saw a difference in quality after shooting but glock has some of the most horrendous triggers in the price range along with fn which is why I was ok with the gun before shooting but after I was unimpressed for the price. The gen 5 was much better on the trigger but still didn’t hold up when you consider that Canik is around the same price and has better sights, trigger, slide serrations , and comes optic ready with additional back straps.

@@AllThingsLoud_ believe it was a gen 2. It was a state of Florida law enforcement buy-back. Only paid $350 for the gun.

Mr Corder. I truly feel your pain . A few months North of 70 here. Forced to retire from a 35 year long career of over the road driving. EXTENSIVE Osteoarthritis. Broad beefy palms and short fingers made the 1911 45 ACP a natural fit. Glock was an ACQUIRED taste. The G 45, G 19X was the first Glock past the Gen 2 that was comfortable in my grasp. The G 45 that I purchased several months ago and I have become “good friends”. I shoot well with it and enjoy my time at the range with this pistol. I’ll be trading a new and unfired Gen 3 Glock 34 for a Gen 5 with grip similar to that G 45.

I bought an sig P229 legion RX model years back. Sold it shortly after due to failure to feed. Sig said I was limp wristing it but I’m sure I wasn’t. The Romeo zero sucked ass too, battery door and the battery comes flying off at the range under recoil. I sold it for $1100, bought it for $1600. Been regretting it but reading your comment now I don’t miss the frustration of a high dollar weapon failing. Some other reviewers also had failures with it. Maybe after its break in period it should be good but it was just a pretty gun.

​@@GookInaTree Update: As noted, I purchased Sig ammo and still had the same problem, so I returned it to Sig. Since the repair I have not had any problems but the experience soured me on the firearm and I just don't take it to the range as much as my other firearms. S&W remains my favorite company. I have six products from them and they check all the boxes for me. In my early collection years I sampled various competitive brands and S&W was always my clear favorite. Sadly, I no longer trust firearm product reviews. My suspicion is many are paid spokesmen and women. What troubled me most about my p229 Legion experience was that the Sig representative told me that I needed top of the line ammo for my firearm to function efficiently. He used the "you wouldn't put cheap gas in a Ferrari analogy." Well the most important box I want to check with a firearm is that it goes bang when I pull the trigger. I don't want to be in an emergency situation and have to worry about whether I loaded the 'good' ammo. I probably won't sell it anytime soon but it just sits in the safe while I have fun with my S&W and other models.

Must be a Gen 1 otherwise i figure it would have blown apart by now. You got a good one! congrats

Good luck, let us know the progress on your gov. Experience.

Funny! I was a MP 95B enlisted, 1990s. 🚔 we wore 92Fs or M9s. About 18mo into my 30mo at my 2nd post, our MP company commander required us to wear lanyards on duty. I myself didn't like them. Pistol lanyards or cords tend to get hung up on seats, car doors. Or they snag, cause the gun to get slowed up.

it’s normally only used for mounted and motorcycle patrols if you are a police officer.@@DavidLLambertmobile

Seems to me that SEAL had a lot on his mind. 'Course if you doubt that, you and your buddy could try tailgate jumping a C 130 at 30,000 feet, with oxygen, free fall into a hostile area, at night, on the kind of classified missions the SEALS are known for. Practice holding your water first, though.

The 45 was on the table. He explained why he prefers the 19X.

did you even listen to what he said or did you come to comment your opinion then go watch another video?

He didn’t really say why the 19X was better and mentioned an actual difference between them other than he mentioned the lanyard (which can be added to the G45) and standard with crappy night sights. The Agents that are optional on the G45 is superior to the G19X sights. But he fails to mention the negatives of the G19X: it can’t use all Glock 17 mags. It can only use the third and forth generation magazines. Gen 5 magazines are incompatible.

Something my 92 has never excelled is mag changes. Same with my px4.

Only reason to go for the 19x vs the 45 is for the standard night sights and spring cups. At around the same price. I bought the 19x but if it had been apples to apples would have bought the 45

Glocks have been known to go 200,000 rounds on OEM parts. I could see changing the guide rod for a steel or tungsten one but I would NOT change the trigger. Just sights and guide rod and throw a optic on it. That’s all it’s needs👍🏻

Must have been shooting some hot or reload 10mm ammo out of it?

Sights are a must on any and every Glock that comes with standard polymer sights.

@@The11eleven The OEM sights are fine for me, I’m not convinced that these are inferior, real training is the answer, I find accuracy no issue night or day

@@robinperronjones5024 it’s not about accuracy, it’s about durability. If you do any real training, you’ll see that the stock Glock sights are pathetic. The rear will shift left to right with the slightest knock, and the front will brake off with any considerable amount of force. If your “training” only consist of going to the range to do some target shooting, you’ll never experience this. However, if it’s a pistol that you’ll be carrying on a daily basis for self defense, I would advise swapping them out. Sooner or later you’ll agree!

@@The11eleven I train tactically and I am a licensed CCW, you may be right but at this time they work ok on my 26/43. I do have a removable red dot on the 26 as I like easy versatility. I believe that Glock know what they are doing as well as other high end manufacturers in other sectors, I’m amazed that in the USA it’s a upgrade heaven, however sometimes trust in the OEM, however I will heed your advice, thanks
