Is there anything wrong with Gen2 Glock 23?

[Junkie]

I came across one and realized that I very rarely see compact Gen2 🅱locks. Full size aren't everywhere but I see way more of them...

Is there a good reason to stay away?

I have a Gen2 G23 that I bought in 1994. It's been rock solid since day one.

I had one before, it was a good gun. I really liked the lack of finger grooves. The only reason I sold it was because the older barrel chambers have less case support than the newer generation barrels. I reload almost exclusively and the Gen 2 spent brass had significant bulges near the base, increasing the chance of brass failure once reloaded. If it wasn't for that issue, I would have never sold the gun. It was perfectly reliable. If you don't reload, there is nothing wrong with the Gen 2. The Gen 3 23 I have now has better case support and doesn't cause the same bulge in the brass.

Buy any Gen2 Glock. All are golden.

Case support maybe?

I have never seen anyone at the range with a light and light holster on a glock who was not LEO.

The gen 2 last like all Glocks.

I was issued a Gen2 G17 IN 1994. Then issued a Gen3 G17 in late 1990's and it's still on my hip. No problems at all.

Yeah, it's 40cal instead of 9mm. 40cal is a stupid caliber that wears out guns faster, and has more recoil with no benefits.

And no, you can't just drop in a 9mm barrel and have both. You need new springs and a new extractor plus a new barrel.

If it happens to be a 3-pin, buy yourself a G32 barrel to shoot some .357sig Can use the same mags.

Two friends of my son have them. I shot both of their pistols, they are solid guns, but the trigger on both felt vague and mushy compared to my Springer XD-S.
