I’m a relatively new reader of your blog and, for lack of a better expression, “new to guns”. I’d like to know why that particular firearm is your “weapon of choice”. Just curious.
Basic criteria for settling on Glock:
No need to fuss with manual safety
Reputation for reliability
Light weight polymer frame
Double stack grip fits my large hands well
Basic criteria for selecting the 19:
9mm is a common pistol round, and easy to find good carry loads.
Smaller than the Glock 17, for easier concealability
Larger than the 26 to fit my large hands
Take a look at the Springfield XD9.
All the benefits above, but cheaper and has a neat grip safety to stop you shooting yourself in the thigh while reholstering (-;
For the most part, Sebastian’s reasoning for the Glock parallels my reasons for carrying a revolver most of the time.
I like the XD series a lot. It wasn’t available when I purchased my Glock though.
