Glock 19 Appreciation Post

[ap3572001]

I carry G19 GEN3 and GEN4 off duty. VERY happy with them.

Please recommend light & laser for G19!

Mine wears the Surefire XC-1, it's light only but it was essentially made for the Glock 19.

One other reason it's a favorite is the simplicity in working on them. With just over 20 parts total and about one or two tools needed to strip down to bare metal and polymer, not hard to be a DIY gunsmith on these. Was never a fan of Glock til shooting them. We go together now like peas and carrots.

Before the end of SSE I was in Riflegear deciding on my first 9mm purchase. I was there looking for a 19 but after handling it I couldn't get over the way the bottom of the grip hit the heel of my hand and ended up buying a Gen 4 17 instead.

You know, a lot of people state "I am not all goo goo about my glock because it's ugly a just a tool". Well, isn't that the point?
This is exactly why you should be goo goo about your glock.

some prefer to shoot and some prefer to fondle ... Glock owners, as a rule, are the former

Bought my Gen 2 G19 new many moons ago at the old Reeds in S.J. Has been an excellent gun ever since. My only Glock, see no need for any others!

Eh.

I like mine, but my vp9 destroys it.

Also, I feel like my gen 4 is thicker in the grip than my gen 3 was.

We should just call the glock 19 "The California 9".

Some skate tape, nail polish on front sight, and a comp slide release are all my 10 yr old G19 need to reach "Perfection". I try to feed it a steady diet of Tula and Brown Bear but sometimes splurge on PMC bronze.
Enjoy the quality Streamlight units, too. Thanks for sharing how ya'll rock your Glock!!!

About 15 years ago when my wife and I got our CCWs, my wife was interested in looking at 9mm handguns. I had a Taurus at the time and while she liked it, she wanted to try others.

We visited our favorite LGS and she fell in love with the G19 right away. At the time, I thought of Glocks as about as attractive as a lump of coal. But, I did not influence her decidion and she bought the G19.

Two weeks later, the Taurus was put up for sale and I bought a G19 for myself. my wife was right (as well as her choice of an S&W Airweight a few years later - which resulted in me getting one too).

Truly incredible handgun, the only thing I have done is put a set of Tru-Glo sights on it (as well as on my wife's G19 and my G36).

Love it.

I have the 23 and I didn't quite like it's size, so when I went for a 9mm Glock, I chose the 17 (and 34). Just a matter of hand fit. Let's face it, they are all the same, just grip size is different.

I like Glocks well enough, but I certainly don't get all dreamy eyed over them like some others seem to do. To me they have all the style and charm of a washing machine or a refrigerator, they do the job they were designed for and that is why I have one. .

IMHO best description of a GLOCK ever!!

I like the 19 a lot except my hand is to big for it... So I trust my G17 Gen2

Washing machine... LOVE It!
