10 mm is OK that's not a Glock is it? That would not be right beating me with that ugly gun.

The one on the right... I don't think it is a glock..

 

[fingolfen]

A Glock is nothing compared to a Japanese Type 94 pistol... and I own two of those (and one Glock)...

1911's are what you show your friends.
A Glock is what you show your enemies.
Why? because they work EVERYTIME. Period.

I am a less concerned with "looks" in my handgun than I am in absolute confidence that my handgun will "work" when I put my booger-hook on the bang switch. Sure, 1911's can be downright beautiful. But for me, the "ugly" utilitarian look of a Glock just kind of makes me smile. My 19 fits my hand like a glove and conceals quite readily. My 30SF fits my hand (now that I've removed those stupid finger grooves) very well, and it points right where I want it to. They are tools......tools that I utilize for self defense. Looks don't matter, dependability does.

Yes we need or own tread. I went and practiced today 70 rounds.:huh: I need to go again.

My thoughts on the discussion:

Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

Humans come in all shapes and sizes, so what is comfortable and ergonomic to one person may not be to the next.

Ahhh....


True that!

 

[lazyeye]

Does that theory hold true for people with 1 eye? A lazy eye? Cross eyed? Their view is distorted because they don't see the true picture

My right eye isn't truly lazy, the eyelid just droops. I just use the name "lazyeye" because it sounds cooler than "droopyeye"


and yes, my perspective is different.

But I own a 1911 and a Glock, so there.

I have to go along with this.. Looks are meaningless.. The weapon you carry must function every time..period.. Sadly..having been shooting for just a blink less than 50 years..the only semi-auto pistols I've personally found that I can say I trust to do that..are Glocks..and HK's.. On the other hand..1911's are in my blood..

My Kimber 1911 is my daily carry, my glock is not. However my 1911 can't do this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BYYq4QI3MxQ

 

[Buddhalux]

Who would want to really? If I wanted to go with a full auto platform it sure wouldn't be using a pistol for the base.

 

[Joe Link]

I would, if I were looking for something extremely compact. The barrel length would probably be about the same as say, an MP5K, and the glock parts are cheap and plentiful

 

[Deavis]

Glock is the pistol equivelent of the AK. The beauty is in the function.
