I have a Glock 19 Gen 4 and I have NEVER had a single glitch, hiccup, or any kind of problem with it. It's the only pistol I own that fires every single time I pulled the trigger. Awesome pistol.

Great gun definitely 💪....get a Taurus G3C as your deep concealment Backup pistol, it's just as Reliable as Glock. Try it you'll agree. Good luck mate!
I love the simplicity and reliability of Glock. I have the 19 and 30 purchased in 1999 and they function as though they are new out of the box.
I've had a Glock 17 for years and have put every type of ammo through it for thousands of rounds and have NEVER had a failure!

Well said, and equally agreed ! I love the simplicity of gun, no external safety, their work horses as any other handgun, durability and easily customizable. The 380 and 9mm are personal favorites.
When I was a deputy sheriff I exclusively carried Glocks. I owned a model 17 & 22. These weapons are extremely accurate, light weight and, I never once had a round jam in either one. Both of my Glocks were 1st generations.

I hated Glocks for the longest time. mainly because everyone, their uncle, and their grandmama had one.... then i bought a Gen3 17.... in love.
Shoots first time EVERY time! Right out of the box. I sold all my 1911's and my 9mm Glocks because I fell in love with the 21 in 45 acp. Now I have a model 30 sf ( short frame) and it's my favorite. Easy to conceal and shoots as good as my full size 21. Best gun ever made.

Just bought my first Glock (a 17 gen 4) a few weeks ago. I cleaned it took it to the range and I'm impressed with the trigger reset way better than the M&P. Yes I also purchased a 33 round "fun stick" for it as well. I also like the fact that you can shoot 22 LR with conversion kit. I think what ultimately drew me to Glock is the huge aftermarket and factory support as ease of field strip and detail strip.

Mister Miney Agreed, its all about reliability and accuracy e.g can i depend on it....yup I can. If i had a choice, i'd take an FN Five-seveN or maybe FNX or FNS 9. Because FN is a company I've used alot and depended my life on in the military. But at the price the Glock is an absolutely solid choice (although the FNS 9 is usually cheaper and better than a 19), utilitarian does the job, you can depend on it. If people hate on it, they are concerned about image or some crazy reason (some pseudo-justification BS), You've got to respect something reliable and solid like this.

I bought my first pistol without ever handling it beforehand. Probably not a good idea but I got lucky. My Glock 26 has been a dream to shoot and it's my EDC. Love it!
My first experience with the Glock was in 1986. As far as I know there were no other firearms using polymer frames so it was quite a conversation piece. It was so light compared to anything else I had handled. Little did I realize at the time, how popular they would become. Love them or hate them, they are good value for the money and reliable in my opinion.
I carried a Model 17 every day for 15 months when I worked in South West Asia and I found it to be accurate and reliable, all I needed.

Holy crap what were you doing there? Was it really dangerous??
I'm always impressed with your videos--thank you for taking the time to make them! I am getting ready to purchase my first (personal) pistol, and I have been absolutely stymied by the choices available. I suppose that's kind of a nice problem to have. I also grew up with the 1911, and have spent nearly all of my time shooting and carrying my father's Colt series 80 service pistol. Frankly, I was going to just go ahead and get a Glock because of all the stellar reviews, but holding one felt totally alien to me. After watching this, I think I've realized I'd really rather get something that I'm more familiar with. I guess I'm kind of a sucker for blued steel and rosewood grips :) Thanks again!
In the UK we didn't fight hard enough for our gun rights and now have the VCR ''Violent Crime Reduction Act 2007, and as a law abiding gun loving person I cant even own a imitation fire arm, we can also go to prison in the UK for saying words, basically thought crimes, so enjoy your freedoms friend with your lovely guns, PS if I had the choice I'd just have to have the Colt 1911
I bought a G17 FDE gen 4 a couple of days ago. It's my first Glock purchase, and I couldn't be more satisfied with it. People say they're uncomfortable and they're ugly, but I actually find them to be quite the opposite. I like the monolithic, unassuming look. It screams quality.

I have a gen 1 Glock 17, bought it when I was a police officer because it was the option the department gave me. So why not own what I would carry for work. You guys will probable won't believe me, but I paid only $225 for mine in 1987. I went through Glock's Armour course and their firearms instructor course as well. I went on to get my to get my Federal Firearms Instructor's certificate at FLETC (Federal Law Enforcement Training Center) after that with my Glock 17. While I was at FLETC I obtained a Distinguished Weapons Expert Certificate. I have since bought a carbine conversion for my Glock which is super cool to have, believe me on that. I still have it and it is still performing like it did when I first bought it over 33 years ago. I stand behind it. Great video.
I love mine. Carried them at work and started loving them then. But, I am a big believer in getting what YOU want. It's your money and you should have what YOU like.
I absolutely love the simplicity of my G19. Every time I pull the trigger it goes bang, and it hits what I aim it at and it's reasonably priced.

If you want a home defense gun at a good price and a good shooter get the PPX. I think walther has a good PPX rebate now. You get a extra mag and holster plus mag holster. I sold mine and got the PPQ and P99. both great pistols. If you are set on the Glock 19 and PPX i would say Glock 19.

davidrx795 if you dont do stupid shit to it, it will last for very long time. Does HK uses better material, yes, will it outlast a glock, yes. Are you going to push it to the limit just to see? Im not. But here are a few reasons i went with glock Im very accurate with any glock that i pick up. Low bore axis, love it. After holding a glock HK feels taller. It shoots 10mm, that right there was the tipping point. HK has no 10mm handguns available. Even Sig made a p220 in 10mm if im correct. Interchangeable magazines, and plenty of accessories available for glocks. Extended magazine is about 50 bux, i was going to order an extended one for my p2000, it is 100 plus dollars. Makes no sense when i can get 2 for same price from glock. HK still feels better in my hand, so i left it to guard mom haha. I havent carried an HK in over a year since i switched to 10mm glocks. Also, if you like .45acp the compact g30 offers 10 plus 1 capacity, while the HK45c is only 7 or 8 plus 1 and weighs way more. Sorry HK is pretty and all, but glock gets the job done!!!
Bought a model 22 in 1992. Still have it. But there were sooo many in the community that hated on them with constant remarks about a plastic handgun. I would love to hear from those people now. I'm sure they now own a "plastic gun".
Fantastic review, thank you so much for making it. It is very helpful.
i made the mistake of my first glock being a 30SF as a concealed carry, and dont get me wrong, it was not a bad gun in and of itself, but 45 cal in a sf is not for a concealed carry owner who has not done copious amounts of training and practice. (as any carrier should) In my opinion that caliber needs to have a full frame for consistent accuracy. I recognized that it was ignorant of me to carry a gun i wasn't extremely accurate with, and when I tried a 9 mil variant (first 9 i ever owned) i immediately recognized the value in glocks insane versatility and options and immediately fell in love. Sidenote everything changed once I touched CZs though :)
Best, most honest review I've ever seen. Unbiased, and extremely informative. I share the same views, I enjoy all different types of pistols. Sure I have a preference and am more drawn to a Sig, but I also own a 17 and a 19 and love them as well. Thank you for not making another "super fanboy Glock is the only pistol anyone should own" kind of video.

Glocks go bang every time you pull the trigger. Proven reliability in a light weight design. The industry standard for all striker fired pistols. I carry a G19 all day, everyday.
I never go out without my Glock 19X and my Spartan Blade.
I carried a 1911 from 1976 on but in 1992 I worked off duty for the U. S. Marshal Service. They carried a Glock which I called a Boat anchor. I shot one that my friend carried and I enjoyed it. Since 1998 I carry a Glock off duty. I got the 54th Lipsey Vickers Glock 19. I just got a Glock 19 gen 5 for EDC! Thanks Glock!
I own like 2 of them. Guides me through Dallas streets at night.
Had my Glock 17 gen4 for about 8 years now, and she still functions flawlessly. Gotta love the Glock!

How you know she*?
It's simple. But it's high-tech. That's it! They've really made it more comfortable from the originals. The "plastic" gun rumor was a MASSIVE publicity coup for Glock, indirectly. Beautiful handles on your collection. Well presented post.
I purchased a model 22 .40 cal, gen 1. I picked it up and it just fit my hand perfectly. Added a Hogue slip on Finger Groved grip. 25 plus years of reliable service.
Nice Job, thank you for your patriotism to the Republic! I have a 26 with extended clips. I like the feel of the longer clip. I Learned very quickly to NEVER touch that trigger! Only when committed to firing it. The trigger is the safety, other than that it is one of , if not the safest pistols ever.
Good stuff Sootch! Yeah knowledge and information is truly lacking on why one is good and one is bad when it comes to different firearms...IMO there are very few truly "BAD GUNS" on the market, but very often it is the cross of personal opinions that muddy up the waters. Nice selection of firearms at @7:30 ....Keep up the good work -Andrew GY6vids
Nowadays, many pistols are just as reliable as Glocks. I love my SW MP 2.0 compact. I may try one out though just because of the ease of finding holsters and other accessories and services.
I own 3 Glocks. I originally bought a Glock because of it's simplicity, no safety, no BS. Put your finger on the trigger when you want to shoot. Nothing to remember, no fail to fire, just a simple gun. It was the perfect move from a revolver but with higher capacity.
Its lightweight, powerful, easy to clean, 4 major parts. I love my 19.

To this day I have no clue why so many people hate Glocks. I try to be open minded but I have yet to see a truly valid reason. And I’m not someone that hates on other handguns - just… baffled is all. And “it looks ugly” is not a valid reason when it comes to tools. It’s not jewelry you show off day in, day out. First and foremost it needs to be reliable and durable.
Great video ! Purchased my first Glock 23 Gen 3 . No complaints had to buy 2 extra magazines 13 round mags. It came with two 10 round mags.
So I recently bought my first pistol. I love the M9 since that's what I get issued of course but I wanted something with more all around reliability and performance. I hated on Glock for years and was a die hard 1911 fan until I finally realized the performance you get for the value. And to be honest that glock is going to be the only pistol I have for a long time to come because it really is a do it all platform.
Glocks are light, mechanically and operationally simple, reliable and priced decently. But the ergonomics are . . . different. If they didn't feel like I was gripping a 2x4 in my hands, I would probably own several.
Austria Glock 23 gen 3 .40cal had it for 8 years never let me down. Never Jammed. Extremely accurate. I love it. Hogue grip . Olight flashlight.
i like this guy, he gives off a positive vibes
This reminds me on my trip to the Sinai desert back 1999. As a military patrol has seen my austrian passport, the officer suddenly pulled out his gun and held it to my face. I was scared as hell, but he only was going to show me, that AUSTRIA is written on his gun, just like on my passport.

A very good review, I agree a lot of good pistols. I started out my law enforcement career with an S&W model 10 in the 80s. Went through various auto pistols I didn't care for, thank goodness for the Glock pistols. One more comment to add, those original Glock sights, me I've always liked them and now that I'm pushing 64 years of age I find they are the easiest sights to see. I've also got the same input from others.
I just wanted to say that I love your KZread Channel. I just recently started getting into guns and I have learned alot just by watching your videos. Don't get me wrong I love Hickok45 as well. But I think your reveiws are the best.

HK45 is the perfect sidearm. It's full sized but actually not as big as it appears to be so I have no problem concealing it. It has an o ring so it's more accurate. It holds 10 rounds normal mag 13 with jumbo mag. This gun will beat the shit out of your glock any day. It's .45 ACP so it will actually put down a bad guy unlike your useless glock where you could pull the trigger all day and take forever to take someone out.
My uncle gave me his Glock 17 Gen 1 and his Glock 23 Gen 1 . My grandfather bought them for him , and he gave them for me . Been in the family for a minute
hahaha love your outtakes, reminds me of Jackie Chan ones.
"They are many like it... Buy this one is mine......"
Love the intro youngguns and straight to it highlights
Just bought my first Glock a 17 Gen 5 , a good friend of mine bought a Glock Gen 1 and I was a Browning Hi Power fan I am now a convert.
I love my Glocks 17, 19, 22 and 23. I love their accuracy, simplicity and reliability. 👍 They are much simpler than my 1911s.
They go and go and go ! Love my Glocks.
Love my glock 22 and i got it used
I have been asked on numerous occasions why I like the Glock. It all comes down to its reliability, aftermarket support for customizing, and simplicity of design. My first Glock was a gen 3 Glock 23. I found that I am not a fan of 40 S&W, but an inexpensive swap of barrel and it became a Glock 19. Since that one I’ve bought a gen 3 Glock 22 (that I’ve also bought a 9mm conversion barrel for, but found out in the longer frame I’m more accurate with either ammunition), a Glock 48 (aluminum mag release, Shield S15 magazines), and a Glock 42. The only modifications I’ve made other than listed were fiber optic or night sights, and talon rubberized grips. I also polished internals to make OEM triggers smoother.
Excellent OBJECTIVE review, unlike some posts. Great job. I like our comment on personalities and a person's hand shape and overall preference for how it feels to him/her.
The gen3 G17 will always have the biggest place in my heart as it was my first ever gun that i purchased myself. I’m young’ 23y/o and forever grateful to live in texas which has constitutional carry, thank god. I now own the most of the pistols seen within the video not just including the glocks and tbh this man couldn’t have been more correct! it all comes down to personal preference don’t get what’s most popular or cool get yourself a sidearm that offers you confident protection. As for myself yes “Glock” is MY favorite and although there’s many legitimate reasons why it is the most popular gun ITW it isn’t my first choice based on that popularity! nor is it based on the opinion of others. It is my experience that any glock in the right hands can be 2nd to none! it’s what i find most comfortable and what i’m most confident in! i know that no matter the conditions i can rely on it to always function as it should! rain, mud, dirt, sand, water etc… My glocks have always performed. Lastly i want to reiterate to anyone searching for a new pistol to do as the video suggests and hold all sorts of different pistols, find what fits you best and let the final decision be predicated on your own experience.

There us nothing wrong with being that guy. The infighting within this community is our biggest weakness, I am a single issue advocate and hate it. If people feel unsafe because someone didn't feel like setting up for concealed carry that day, it's your problem; not theirs. Maybe if Gun education was mandatory things would be better, but I could see them bungling that all up and making I worse.... Idk, but please don't hate open carry guy, or my kind who print like typewriters (and still no-on notices. I even went to show a security guard my holster was empty cause I thought he was eyeing it, as it prints about the same without the gun.... Walmart nylon with shoestrings ratchet straps, srategic holes in all my pants, but I am rambling.... as he us clearly on our team ND showing people it's OK. I was told to "double check it was legal even lol, I know no-one more versed in gun law than myself. Idk, my point is idc what color, hobbies, creed, or anything else a person does/has/is as long as their not with the whiny gun grabbers (who used your dame argument to try to ban open carry in parks, I spoke against it.... not saying that's why it failed but there us a corollary between the bills hey let me speak on and which ones fail. Open carry guy Concealed but loose guy Super concealed guy Leaves it in his car or backpack guy Scared to carry but supports others guy All allies should be accepted, only scorn the behavior that rightfully hurts our image (litterbugs are high on the list, as are senseless murderers and other bad stuff) Open carry may hurt are image with some, but it shows others it's OK. Also, with the proliferation of home gunsmithing the monetary barrier to entry has dropped dramatically. Not to long now that $50 ccp/ccw/cpl/ whatever a state calls the unconstitutional permit necessary for concealing will be the most expensive part of the process. *at the very least you must see that it also alienates people to not support open carry, and in some states could make the difference between being legal to carry or not* Please, please consider decenting the high horse that you and so many others have taken to mounting. If ol Bubba likes to keep his 12 gauge on him, it's his choice and we should respect it and him.

Your 23 and trying to tell people how to live? My guy if you are bothered by open carry, that is on you, not the one open carrying. The one open carrying is likely knowingly taking on extra risk and giving up the element of surprise to normalize guns. Or maybe can't afford a permit like I said above. Where the hell do you get off judging how people invoke their God given right. (It also let's me know that is probably a good guy to have a beer with, as most non-internet warrior gun guys are) I am absolutely appalled the former norm, the largest way to show 2a support, the simple inaction of not hiding your gun is something prominent voices will throw shade on. But your barely an adult youtube commenter, and thought "this is a good idea to type up, let's just throw many of or allies under the gun grabbers bus because "it's scary" Get over it, and have some freaking humble pie. Some people watching are old enough to be your daddy, and your *telling* them what is right and wrong..... I'm perplexed you exist good sir, I guess do whatever you want but the attacking of our own does bother me greatly.

Also, it's difficult to conceal an AR with a proper barrel, so the there's that.
I like Glocks. I DON'T like people that think they are the best without question. Glocks USED to be one of the best polymer framed pistols. Now, MANY companies have improved on the Glock design, and Glock has fallen behind.
