    What is your most interesting/fun/utilitarian Glock?

    Everyone knows that Glocks generate a whole lot of "energy" in discussions.
    But no matter what, Glocks go bang, and there are a few in the Glock line-up that are really in demand and are interesting...and fun to shoot.

    I am really interested to hear what others think about the fun/utility/interesting Glocks.

    I'm really only interested in some positive comments that can educate and edify my understanding and the understanding of those who read and what to learn more.

    To get this started, I've listed a few Glocks that appear to get a lot of accolades for fun, utility, and unique abilities:
    • Glock 19, 9mm, compact - It appears to be one of the most talked about in a positive way. It is in demand. It has a great feel and fit.
    • Glock 43, 9mm, subcompact, single stack slimline - It appears to be in demand with Calguns prices being $250-$500 over MSRP. It's easy to hold. It's fun to shoot. It's small and concealable.
    • Glock 21/30, .45, full size/compact - It packs a punch for the size. From what I've read, it can be converted to a 10mm.
    • Glock 29/20, 10mm, compact/full size - Fun to shoot. Easy 10mm to shoot. Solid 10mm.
    • Glock 34/35/41 - Very popular in competition, and if you like the longer handguns


    I didn't list accuracy, because, in my experience, that is a given.

    I didn't list boxy, "tupperware," boring, or plastic gun...because we all know the lines...

    What are your favs?
    What is your special Glock and why?
    I'm interested to know if there are any other gems out there that you have discovered...

    My goal is to "collect" the interesting ones...in any size.

    Thanks for your help with the information and my project.

    I kinda have done this in other gun lines, and now I'm doing it in the Glock line.

    PS: If another thread like this exists, please let me know. I didn't find one.

    Where to start, I own Glocks in .45, .40 and 9mm. Doubles in five different models. Most carried in order 23, 43, 27, 19. Favorite to shoot 35 and 41. One that surprised me the most older gen 3 22c, got it in a trade. Always thought the ported guns were unnecessary and all show no go. But I gotta say it does as advertised, I like shooting that gun. Have I changed my mind on ported handguns, no not really. But I'm glad I traded for it.
    Shot a friends 42 and liked it, but don't want to add another caliber. If I already shot .380 I'd buy one.
    Im a warmonger baby, I got blood in my eyes and I'm looking at you.

      I've owned a dozen, but the 26 is what I enjoy the most. Had a 17L and a 41, but prefer a 1911 for range work. My 26 has factory night sights, and is much more accurate than it should be. Easy for me to shoot very quickly, as well. It just works for me.

        It's a glock dude. They all look the same and have numbers. It shoot different calibers. Get over it,not special. A glock is a glock is a glock is a block.
        Utilitarian. Phhht they are all the same to me. Boring a grey. Fun? Hardly. Can they do what any other gun can do? Yes, but you have to get your grip angle right otherwise it won't shoot right. Stupid grip angle

              Glock 19
              The best ever Glock. Size, accuracy, capacity and it's history of reliability will never be matched.

              This is one that I carry. I've since had front serrations laser cut into the slide.

                  And that folks,
                  is how you do interesting Glocks.

                  Very nice ke6guj.

                      plenty that work. but a "normal" glock isn't interesting, it just works.

                      I'd guess my 34Gen4 is north of 10k rounds through it now, mostly from the holster.

                        If something goes bump on the night, you have to make sure that you're not grabbing the G34 that shoots blanks!

                          I dig my both 3rd gen G17 and G26.

                          Interesting: Newbies will limp wrist and have malfunctions on my G17. Works fine for me.

                          Fun: Brass burning my face if I'm not wearing a baseball cap when shooting G17.

                          Utilitarian: Reliable, lightweight and durable, G26 can take G17 and G19 mags.

                            Yeah, yeah, it's been awhile since I posted this photo, and yeah, yeah, it's not my pistol, I just possessed for several years when I was the District Manager.
