Help me choose my GSSF pistol model

[Gauss]

I like Glocks - a lot!

In the recent GSSF match in Norco I won a random pistol and am thinking about which model to select once the coupon arrives. I currently own models 17, 19, 21, 22, 26, 27, 30, 34 and have a 35 waiting for an SSE kit.

I'm pretty sure it has to be a California approved model so here are some options and what I like about each:
31 - It might be nice to use the coupon on something out of the ordinary and I don't have anything in 357 Sig.

20 - Similar to above but with the added cache of 10 mm.

36 - Single stack 45 might be nice if I ever get around to getting a CCW. Also a natural gun to shoot Major Sub with.

34 - Yes, already have one but I'm waiting on a slide with an RMR sight mounted in it. This would allow me to have a gun with standard and optical sight without having to switch slides.

Any thoughts on the forums to help me choose?

I would go with a Glock 29 if you think you might concealed carry it. If not go with the 20. Both can shoot .40 s&w out of the box so cheap ammo is available. You can also convert them to the 357 SIG you want with just a barrel swap.

I would say the 36. Yes you loose a little on round capacity, but the single stack grip makes the gun easy to shoot accurately (for myself at least). But I won't lie, an extra 34 with an RMR on it would be nice

G29 OR G32.. They would compliment your collection.

I second the G20 suggestion. Everyone should have at least one 10mm. Now I just need to get one for myself!

I have a 31 which I love, great round, very flat
The 20 is also a good choice only 10 mm that can handle the really big booms.
And you can't go wrong with the 34. Throw some warren tac fiber optics on it and enjoy.

The 36 is a pretty popular option in this thread, I'll go see if my local range rents 'em and give it a whirl.

I'll definitely have a 34 with an RMR, another would backfill and be kept with the iron (plastic?) sights.

I don't think a compact wold be my first 10mm handgun. I generally start with a full size and if I like the caliber branch out into the smaller sizes.

The caliber flexibility is a definite plus though.

Who knows, you may luck out! Glock is pretty generous giving out the prizes. This was my 4th match with 16 division entries total. If my schedule allows I'll drive up to Richmond for that match too.

Already have a 19. If I were to add a second it would probably be a Gen 4 in a color other than black.

My hands generally fit the full size pistols better, so it woudl be 31 over 32 for a first 357 sig pistol.

[Gauss]

G23 if you want to complete your 40cal lineup, or a second of your favorite.

23 is another one I'd probably go Gen 4 with so that rules out using the GSSF coupon.

There really are lots of good choices.

At this moment in time I'm leaning towards the 20. We'll see if this opinion holds up by the time the coupon arrives.


Thanks to all for their suggestions!
