Glock CCW - Compact or SubCompact

[rabagley]

The G36 is the best Glock for CCW, bar none. Packed with Cor-Bon flying ashtrays, it kicks like a mule and pokes huge holes in anything it's pointed at.

Love mine, wouldn't trade it for anything.

G36 is a good gun, but I feel 6 rounds is not enough. your milage may vary though... Therefore I own G30

26 in a Milt Sparks SS II 90% of the time.

Didn't take me long to get used to shooting with my pinky tucked under the mag.

For non-CCW use, I love the 21 and 30. The glock was originally designed for 9mm, but it's just so darned good at .45 ACP

For CCW use, however, the ultracompact size (who expected the thinnest Glock in the lineup to be a .45?) just makes it a no-brainer for me. As for only six rounds, well, the magazines are really thin as well and with a very little sanding, all of my magazines will drop.

For CCW... get the sub compact... g19 is still too big for my taste to carry on a daily basis but that's just me.

For daily carry i'd look for the slimline glocks. I hear they make those now.

I agree. Having carried my G23 (same sized as the 19), I can tell you it's right at the tipping point of being too large for CCW.

id say go with a g26, 27, or 30 and get a pearce grip extension. Dunno if you are totally settled on a glock but if not give the sub compact xd a look. I thought I really wanted the g26 but then I held the xd, now Im hooked on getting the xd.

The guy I bought my G21SF from used it as his CCW gun in a CTAC. I'm not a fan of the CTAC as I don't like the feel of Kydex pressed into my side but am tempted to buy an MTAC for it and see if I can carry it as well as the 19.

I was thinking a G36 would be swet. It's slim so it fits my asian hands. But since I live in the bay area, the only gun I think I would "carry" outside of my house would be a revolver at work
