glock hating? What does everyone have against polymer?

[Mighty J ho]

I have a Glock 17 and I'm buying a Glock 34 soon.I never had any problems with them! they are great guns!

i think its the group of people who post how glocks are the best,if you dont own a glock you have a peice of $%@&. people are getting sick of it,lol.i have one and i think its a great gun,but there are plenty of guns out there that feel and shoot better imo.also own the o so hated sigma,it also shoots great and have no complaints.if i would have bought the sigma first i would have probably not spent the big bucks on the glock imo. i think get what you want,can afford,and floats YOUR boat

Preface: I enjoy ALL types of handguns. I only recently purchased a Glock, and a Colt 1911 is still on my "to-buy" list.

When John Browning walks the earth again, better load out, because well, he's a zombie... He's been dead since the late 20's.

Three years after Browning kicked the bucket, Gaston Glock was born.
Glock is getting up there, but he's still among the living at the moment.

What's next....

Did you know that the original spin-dial phones beat the pants off of iPhones? - See how ridiculous that sounds? Your life, improved through superior technology. Embrace it.

Everything has its place, and to push away anything that may bring something new to the table almost always leaves you missing out on something.

Although Jonn Browning has been gone many years Glock is not even a pimple on his ***** .

Love my Glock 20 and 27 - no frills fire power - point and shoot
I love my other guns equally - all get the desired attention they deserve

[Cyc Wid It]

Functional but no soul and hideous. Also, not very fun to shoot for me.

I only had one gun I own FTF...my glock 17. The striker channel can and does get filty and than the gun can have light strikes, so enough about how reliable they are, they simply AREN'T that reliable.

And they gotta have the worst trigger in the world, besides a Taurus Millenium that is.

How so? You care to give examples or just your personal preference?

Its more preference, but the safety is a big improvement practically. I also view the inset slide as a improvement just for the fact of getting the bore height lower. Feed ramp is a bit longer, and seems to more reliably feed HP ammo, but that's comparing to older (mk II and older) Hipowers.


Dont get me wrong, I love hipowers, but for the money I think the CZ is a much better gun. Id love to get a nice bi-tone MkIII, but maybe when money isnt as much an issue.

I think the most annoying thing about Glock fans is that they assume everyone knows what every Glock model number means. I can't tell you how many WTS ads I've seen that just say "Glock XX $yyy". Now I'm sure all of you know exactly what caliber, barrel length, capacity, etc is in every single Glock model number - but I sure don't! 17, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 25, 26, 27, etc, etc, etc - it makes my brain hurt. You jokers make me google too much....

I personally couldn't care less what people think. I love my Glocks and my G36 has been on my hip every day for the past few years. I have total faith in all of my glocks. That being said, I have many other guns that I like just as much or more, but I like the glock platform for my ccw gun because it works for ME. It might not work for other people. I am one of the wierdos who actually like the grip angle and my G36 is the gun I shoot most accurately. I don't own a 1911, but do enjoy shooting friend's 1911s and don't have anything against the 1911 platform. I just prefer not to have a thumb safety on a carry gun. Some of my range guns have safeties, but they are range guns not a SD tool. The people who bash any given gun get annoying. What works for me doesn't work for others. That's why there are 100s of choices out there.

I see your point, the new Hi-Powers from Browning are $400 more than the cz-75 on a bad day. More gun for less money. Good point.

[Lumpia is sarap!®]

Everyone has their prejudices.

[shooting4life]

Most of the guns I own are never going to see a battle or get tossed around as I can not get a ccw so wanting guns that look nice means I don't own a glock. I get what's so great about them. But everything they are great at is not something that I need that cannot be found in something else that looks/feels nicer. If I ever got a ccw then I would probably would end up with something plastic. Until then I'll keep my steel guns.

[Dark Mod]

For some reason i never bought a glock, Its been on the list forever, but everytime i get enough cash to buy a new gun i ended up wanting something else just a little bit more. Maybe after christmas ill finally pick one up, would love something in 10mm

[bohoki]

i had this crazy conspiracy theory that there was some kind of solvent gas that could be sprayed at you and instanly turn your gun to goo

have an old glock 17 and 21 and they keep shufflin shufflin

[scootle]

the reason is simple... this is the internet... someone somewhere will hate something... always.

PS why doesn't that Glock Hello Kitty picture show up more often these days... is it lost and gone forever?
