    will glock ever....

    The Browning Hi Power is around 1.42 inches thick, while the Glock 9mm/40S&W/380ACP/357SIG/45GAP models are only 1.18 inches thick, and the Glock 10mm/45ACP models are only 1.28 thick. While I don't have the measurements for comparison, what makes the Gen1 through Gen3 models feel thicker is...

    Glock 27: Mil-Comm

    Well, after receiving my Glock Tool from Lone Wolf, I was finally able to sit down and use Mil-Comm on the Glock. Everything went great. For those interested, here's exactly what I did: First I stripped the slide and frame completely. I used 91% alcohol on every metal part of the gun...

    Glock 27: Mil-Comm

    I recently purchased a Glock 27 Gen4 and I'm loving it so far. I have about 400 rounds through the gun, and I have decided to start using Mil-Comm synthetic grease/oil for the gun. I have used the product before, but with previous guns have only ever stripped the barrel and slide, the added the...

    Question about position of striker on a Glock

    I have a Glock 27 Gen4 that I purchased a short while ago as my first Glock, and I have noticed the same thing. At first I had the thought that you had: if I chambered a round, would it fire? But, like others have stated, it's normal for a Glock to do this. The firing pin will go back into...

    Springfield Armory XDS

    The XD-S website was just recently changed to say "Shipping Soon" on the front page. I haven't seen any dealer previews at my local gun shops, so I don't think many outside of Shot Show 2012 have been able to use one. The gun definitely looks interesting, and it's on my list of handguns to...

    S&W Shield?

    My guess is that Smith & Wesson is preparing a small single-stack 9mm Para pistol to compete with other such pistols on the market, such as the Ruger LC9, Kimber Solo, Beretta Nano, Kahr PM9, Sig P290, et cetera. I don't think that their Bodyguard 380 did as great as expected; so instead of...

    Your Every Day Concealed Carry System

    I've gotta know: Why?

    Your Every Day Concealed Carry System

    I'd love to get an idea of what everyone here carries on a daily basis; not just the gun, but the whole system. I've been looking to perfect my Every Day Concealed Carry System since I first obtained by Concealed Carry Permit, and I think right now I've got a pretty good rig going on. Of...

    Changing CCW Autoloader, interesting observation

    I just got my CrossBreed SuperTuck for my Glock 27 in today, and I couldn't agree more. The thinness is outstanding for the overall package. I am really happy with my entire rig so far. I'll be placing an order in for a CrossBreed belt tomorrow once I do the measurements to make the system...

    New or used?

    I guess I am alone in the opinion to buy new. While I don't have a problem with buying guns used, for a carry gun I always buy new. I don't do this so I get the most life out of my handgun or whatnot. I do this so I know the entire life of the handgun. I just recently purchased a Glock 27...

    A few home defense questions I couldnt find answers too after searching the forums

    Like most people here have already said, since the ability to conceal is not a problem with a home defense pistol, I'd always go with more rounds than less. It may even be a good idea to have a home defense gun be very similar to your concealed carry weapon in order to take advantage of mussel...

    What Would You Choose As the M9's Replacement?

    The topic says it all: What would you choose as the M9's replacement in the various military branches? There's been a lot of talk about the military replacing the M9, and several announcements to the same effect (when this will actually occur is up in the air of course). This is just to see...

    Favorite Striker Fired Pistol

    My current favorite is my brand new Glock 27! I bought it today and put around 220 rounds through it. Thing's a beast. I have a feeling that if...who are we kidding? I have a feel when I pick up a Glock 23 I'll like it more because of the larger size. But the Glock 27 is a great size for...

    What do you want the Glock G40 to be?

    I completely agree with this. I'd love for Glock to release something very similar to the Beretta Nano. After holding a Nano, my first thought was that it was a mini Glock. I will definitely end up buying a Nano as long as Glock doesn't release something that is even better (I've already...

    What do you want the Glock G40 to be?

    The Glock 36 is their subcompact model. I'd like to see a bigger version in the standard or compact size.

    What do you want the Glock G40 to be?

    If/when Glock comes out with another model (presumably the Glock 40; though I could see Glock skipping that number to avoid confusion with the .40 S&W caliber, and instead called it the Glock 41), what would you want it to be? I love to hear opinions about what configurations what want to be...

    Looking for a CCW in .45 ACP

    The M&P is definitely on my list to check out. I have handled various versions of it several times and I haven't cared too much for them. But my wife is looking at getting one, so I plan to rent it soon (probably in .40 S&W); that should give me a good idea of how it shoots and whatnot. Like...

    2012 NEW XDM 45 Single Stack

    While the official website used to say 29 oz, it has now been corrected to 21.5 oz, which sounds correct. During one of the videos of a SHOT Show Media Day, a Springfield rep said something around that weight.

    Looking for a CCW in .45 ACP

    Thanks to everyone who's replied so far! I am still anticipating new responses! As expected, there's be a lot of great praise for the Glock 36, which I believe will be the gun that I settle on. Glock has such a reputation for reliability and accuracy. Once I shoot it at the range I'll know...

    Looking for a CCW in .45 ACP

    I'm sure no one here is tired of seeing these threads! I'm sorry for the life story below, but I feel that the more back story given, the more likely that the great members here will be able to help. I have had my concealed weapons permit for some time now; I had owned (and still do) several...
