There is no reason to carry anything other than a Glock 19.
The Glock 45 has rendered the G19 obsolete and buckbroken.The G43x for when u need a smol boi with G19 capacity The G19 is finished old man the Glock 45 is king
>>61570894>>61570910I picked a G45 (MOS, threaded barrel) because G19's grip was too small. But I now believe I fucked up : G45 is harder to CC, and I could just use +2 extendos and cool factor comp on a basic used G19 for home defense and range fun, keeping it stock for CC. I dont know. I kinda believe it's either G19 (+ addons if needed) or G34+G26.
i mostly carry a p365xl now instead of my glock 19 and i don't even like sig
>>61570894Glock 20>>61570910>boigo back
>>61570894I carry a steyr M9A2 because fuck you
>>61570910Retard take, compact barrel length fullsize grip guns are retarded
>>61570894>There is no reason to carry anything other than a Glock 19.Pragmatically I would say no. The cost-benefit is just soo awesome. However, I would always advise that if you can its better to carry a DA-SA just for the extra level of safety.
>>61570894>There is no reason to carry anything other than a Glock 19.>not integrally suppressedMeh.
I got a USP9 for my first pistol (and now suppressor host) and a USP Compact for my CCW. I was considering getting a 19 and a 17 with the same idea in mind but now I'm eying the 45. Money isn't an issue, I just want solid bomb proof tupperware. What should I get and why?
>>61570894Prefer my XD-M in 10mm, sorry
>>61570894Sorry old man, but the free market fixed the shortcomings of the G19.
>>61570910>shorter barrel>longer grip thats harder to concealLol obviously you know Jack shit about guns besides what your favorite jewtuber says
>>61570894Except for a Glock 20 which is objectively superior hence the bigger number
>>61571530Why do you support companies that support gun control?? Never change /k/
>>61570894That's not S&W M&P 2.0 though.
>>61570894Carrying sure but those who believe their G19 or G45 are actually concealed to any meaningful degree are deliding themselves. G19's& G45's always pring and they're not as comfortable to carry as slimmer/narrower options like the 43x or P365
>>61571580Wrong
>>61571591Good point, didn't consider that
>>61570894Sure, if you're using a tlr7, but if you're gonna rock the U-boat, then just ride with the 17 or 34.
>carrying basically a full size pistol>not avoiding terrible back pain in your older years and instead opting for the gigachad pocket carry routeLMFAO
>>61570894There is no reason to carry a Glock.
>>61570894I want an external hammer and no trigger safety.
>>61570894Anything Glock can do M&P can do better. Except jam and blow up.
>>61570894>picks worst Austrian pistolAt least pick the good series of pistols from discount germany
>>61570894Glock 49
>>61570894>9mm instead of 45 or 357 Sig>Glock unreliability>shitty Glock trigger>shitty Glock sights>push button mag release>shitty Glock accuracyPlenty of reasons, anon. I like my carry guns to actually stop the threat, not jam and shoot where I point it.
>>61574615>push button mag releaseka chow what's poppin fellow weirdosIt's ya boi heel release schizo back at it again
>>61570894Glocklett blocks your path
>>61574615357sig is cool and I wish that it wasn't the case, but it's a dying round. It did have that last hurrah after that boomer blew that Texas church shooter's head off though. I'd say that about as good of a send off as a round can get. 45s dont really have a place when 10mm is an option. 45s, unlike the 357sig, just insist that they are still relevant when they really aren't anymore. 357sig had a party, then quietly went on hospice while the 45s are taking chemo and every experimental drug that they can take in a desperate attempt to stay afloat.
>>61574742I don’t care. I can still buy them and have enough for a lifetime or Shtf. 9mm is just too weak as shown time and time again to reliably stop someone. If you have anything but a small compact that can carry something more powerful than 9mm then you should.
>>61574759>shown time and time againlol ok
>>61574695>>61571973>having hands small enough to fire theseBunch of nancy boys in here. The G19 is almost too small for my hands
>>61570894I carry a glock. Carry it straight to the trash can lmao
>>61571319based
>>61571580You need a better holster. I carry a 19x with an attached x300, and a spare 19 round magazine all in the same holster and you wouldn't know it even if you were looking out for concealed firearms. >what holster?AXIS ELITE
>>61570894No reason to carry anything other then pic
>>61570894Nah.
>>61575357>and a spare 19 round magazineAlways have to remind myself that G19 carriers are the guys who legitimately think they're going to find themselves in a John Wick scenario where they need n+1 rounds because they're definitely going to find themselves attacked by multiple heavily armed assailants who are determined to be in a shootout and definitely won't scatter at the sound of one gunshot
Asking here because there doesn't seem to be a good thread for it.9mm pistol or 12GA shotgun for home defense, which does /k/ prefer?
>>61575966>>Always have to remind myself that G19 carriers are the guys who legitimately think they're going to find themselves in a John Wick scenario where they need n+1 rounds because they're definitely going to find themselves attacked by multiple heavily armed assailants who are determined to be in a shootout and definitely won't scatter at the sound of one gunshotit's called planning for the worst, watch any police bodycam and see how bad pistols are at killing people. You could assume that any threat you'll see will be magically warded off by the presence of a gun, or you can carry enough ammunition to be actually able to defend your life. It's not really that much more weight or discomfort. Pay attention to crime trends of South Africa as what will happen in the United States. We are already seeing criminals use cell/gps jammers.https://ktla.com/news/local-news/police-warn-of-thieves-using-wifi-jamming-tech-to-disarm-cameras-alarms/https://www.usatoday.com/story/tech/columnist/komando/2024/02/29/thieves-using-wifi-jammer/72758559007/Now you won't be even able to call 911.>>61576003Both. you need to have options IMO. A 12 gauge will kill people dead, easier to aim due to having a stock, but depending on where you live may be too unwieldly to use indoors.
>>61575966I mean some people carry an extra mag because most malfunctions that aren't user induced are caused by the mag. If your gun starts jamming, swap it out with your spare.
>>61576003I have several options at the ready, but my bedside gun is a Benelli M4. I'm not taking any chances. Hearing be damned, if someone kicks down my door, I want the biggest hole in them I can make
>>61576003I would grab the 12 gauge before the pistol. That's for damn sure. Unless it is a single shot, you are better armed with a shotgun than any handgun. Then again, I may have the handgun on me. In all likelihood, if someone broke into my house, I would shoot them with my 38 special because I always have it in my pocket. If something was about to happen, you know damn well that I would go get the 12 gauge if I had the time to spare.
>>61575966In gunfights you can accidentally press the mag release button due to the adrenaline. I'm not going to expect that mag will land somewhere I can quickly grab it, I'll likely kick it while running, or it breaks. It's not all about the extra 19 rounds, more about having another mag.What if the gun fight takes place on the street, and I accidentally release the mag and it goes down a sewer drain, or I cant find it in the grass? Seems like a no brainer to me.
>>61576114AlsoThe flashlight is more uncomfortable to carry on my gun than the mag is, but I don't think you'd ask me why I'm carrying a gun with a flash light on it.
>>61576080Don’t use a gun that requires a mag
>>61570894*jams**jams again*
>>61576027>>61576102You guys keep multiple loaded guns at the ready all the time? I'm not saying you shouldn't and I'm not saying that's necessarily dangerous, but for me having a loaded gun out in my house just feels weird.
>>61576027>watch any police bodycam and see how bad pistols are at killing peopleI watch a ton of bodycam footage and the cops are constantly killing people. The video descriptions are always "despite the officers/first repsonders providing life-saving measures, the suspect was pronounced dead at the scene/hospital">>61576080>jamming>>61576114>you can accidentally press the mag releaseTo both of you: all the more reason to just carry a revolver
>>61576467after they dump an entire magazine and a half into the suspect>Taurus 856 with belt cliplol, these are the people you talk to online
>>61576467>external hammer>belt clipThis is how you shoot your dick off.
>>61570894there is no reason to drive anything other than a honda civic
>>61570894It’s not a cute look though
>>61576080I've never had any gun jam except a Glock.Also another one:https://youtu.be/6R1WLcQiFbk&t=165If he didn't have backup he'd be dead. Glocks are fucking widowmakers at this point, ditch em.
>>61570894Getting sick of going into gun stores seeing wall to wall plastic pistols and ARs
>>61570894Too big under scrubs.t. MD
>>61571319>>61575012I am a G19/P229 enjoyer but the new Austrian is best Austrian. Added SpeedSights because I like the front trap sight (no homo) but wanted tritium.
>>61576582>guy
>>61576560>t.eternally butthurt wristlet
>>61574882Gottem, remember to wash your hands after
>>61576873It doesn't really matter what jokes you make anon, a Glock is a liability. Throw it in the recycling bin.
But if you carry a Glock, How will you differentiate yourself from all your gun buddies on the internet? How will they know that you are better than them and have superior taste?
>>61577548Because your gun won't jam. This is literally about function not form. They are jamming left and right and it's not user error. Address this realistically, sell your Glocks to niggers where they belong.
>>615777991: I was making a joke, you autist. Glocks are fine guns2: what’s jamming left and right? Glocks? Something else? I don’t get the point you’re trying to make
>>61570910>The G43x for when u need a smol boi with G19 capacityhuh?
>>61577548Rattlecan that bitch and you've got all the personality you need.
>>61577837Watch police shooting videos which are the actual best metric for testing what a gun will actually do in a gunfight. Glocks jam in them like a third of the time and this is not a training issue, Glocks are known to be easily able to induce a jam just for the lulz which people have done in review videos often. It seems the chaotic motion involved in actual gunfight induces these jams. The same does not happen for M&P and Sigs that I've seen. Certainly not at as high of a rate if you are able to cherrypick and exception. As for my example, try to get through 10 videos on Police Activity youtube page without seeing around 3 Glocks jamming... it's that bad.
>>61577894>Glocks are known to be easily able to induce a jam just for the lulzHow? I've tried left handed and gangster grips and all kinds of stupid shit and i've never managed to get it to jam.
>>61577940https://youtu.be/H_Uqtz2asE4
>>61577986I dunno man I'm a wristlet and like I said, even one handed and fucking around I couldn't make it jam. The guy even says:>I cannot cause a g19 to malfunction, unless I'm purposely trying to induce that malfunctionWhat does this even say about those cop videos?
>>61576467I actually do carry a revolver. I have a J frame in a pocket at almost all times. If I have a more capable gun on my hip, I swap the J frame for my NAA Black Widow. I always have a revolver on me.
>>61576573I like plastic pistols and I feel the same. My local range/store has like 20 long guns on a wall and then all the pistol cases are full of Every flavor Glock they can get, lots of Sigs, and then a few random other plastic fantastic with like 1 or 2 revolvers and an overpriced 1911.Their range rentals are even worse. Almost all 9mms, almost all Glocks. No subcompact guns other than a Glock 43, 1 revolver, a couple 1911s, and a few machine guns.
>>61577548You can shoot smaller groups at longer ranges.
>>61576573I wonder if the market wants such guns or the market buys it because it's the only guns offered
>>61578012They're in actual gunfights with motion and in most I can't see anything obvious being done wrong. Your bias towards the brand is clouding your ability to judge this issue objectively. The guns are not functioning properly in the one situation where it could cost life. I know you bought this gun and tricked it out, maybe you bought a few, but you have to admit they're pieces of shit.I used to be a Toyota guy until I had a series of bad experiences with their newer garbage. I no longer fanboy for them and won't buy one again, I have no brand loyalty when all companies are doing is making everything cheaper and shittier. Maybe Glocks used to be good but they aren't anymore and the recorded evidence for that continues to grow. You need to find a better brand.
>>61578539The manufacturers are seeing how cheap they can make things and have retarded consoomers still buy them. They switched most triggers to plastic now ffs.
>>61578583I don't have brand loyalty, I'm only allowed 1 handgun for self defense so it needs to tick all the boxes - light enough to carry all the time, at least 15 rounds (if I do draw I'll probably be up against at least 3 people), reliable - which in my experience it is, parts availability, and also I want at least 4" of barrel.I also don't really have the opportunity to try out different handguns, so I have to make a purchase before I even get to fire it. All the "not a glock"s don't seem to offer any actual improvement which wins out over reliability and availability, and I'm not carrying a steel frame in my pants.
>>61571464I luv me 45. Slap a flashlight on it and it acts as a counterweight. Added with the fullsized grip and less slide jumping back and there's no recoil.
>>61579067Misinformed purchase based on not knowing the superior options then. The M&P is rounded in areas that make it more streamlined to carry, it doesn't print like a brick, and it's reliability is superior to the Glock's. The P365 series has 15 round options that are even more slim for carry.
>>61570894I wanna carry a Glock 17 instead. Is that okay?
lookin fo commanuh zeero!
Glock 48 because cuck state. I have a G19 with grandfathered "high-capacity" magazines, but good luck trying to justify using it to a cuck state prosecutor, and jury. 10 rounds will have to do.
>>61570894Glock is to gen X as the 1911 is to Boomers
>>61577859Shield Arms makes 15 round flush fit mags for the G43x and G48. I've got a few, they're great. Glock needs to get with the fucking times and stop putting all that polymer around their mags so there can actually be some usable volume in there but they're dumb faggots stuck in the past and they don't know how to innovate anymore.
>>61582086What is to yoomers and zoomers?
>>61582092They don't want to innovate, they don't have to. They'll still sell millions of units if their pieces of shit based on brandfagging alone. There are better versions made by other brands that function better, there already are improved Glocks so just buy those.
>>61570894>t.
>>61570894Glock 20, because its one more
>>61574615you obviously don't know how to shoot a handgun.
>>61576796Hey, I wear the murse title with pride. I did nursing for 4 years to fund going to med school, no hate for the murses.
>>61571033>carry a p365xl now instead of my glock 19>>61571580>G19's& G45's always pring and they're not as comfortable to carry as slimmer/narrower options like the 43x or P365>>61580912>The P365 series has 15 round options that are even more slim for carry.Same route for me. I carried my 19 for a bunch of years. Still have it. No desire to ever sell it, but would for the right price. When I decided to try something new for edc I got a 43x and a P365XL figuring I would sell the one I didn't like. I kept the P365XL. I still have it, but decided to get a standard P365 for even better concealment. I would still have the 43x but I lost it in a boating accident.
>>615708949mmThat's really cute.
>>61570894What if I want to carry a phased plasma rifle in the 40 Watt range?
>>61580912Points to consider. I have shot a friend's 43X and found it was a bit small to be comfortable. Printing with the g19 isn't an issue for me.On the other hand I simply don't like the P365, i think it looks like a hunchbacked retard.
>>61584449Are you perchance fat and drive a Dodge ram?
>make obvious inflammatory thread about glocks>get rabid "muh jams" neo-fudd contrarians to bump it foreverb-b-b-b-based!
>>61584516No I'm skinny and drive a 3 series.
>>61582803>murseThat word is fucking retarded. It's nurse, just nurse.
>>61579144Can confirm. Did it. Very low recoil. But CCing a 45 still not comfy.>>61582054Thinking about 26 because sorta large hands. Does it still compete with 43x and 43 ? Or P365 and XL ?
>>6158577926 is the better choice over micro 9s. The grip is nice and short, but is thicker so it feels bigger. It also can use the big Glock mags all and has a MUCH larger aftermarket and holster options for days.
I don't like glock though
>>61582601>an actual human being has that photo saved on a personal devicejesus, anon. seek help. you know you could just... not engage in his content, right?
ill punch a glock ill punch ur bullet n ill punch u 2 faggot
>>61582863>but I lost it in a boating accident.I also have had weapons that I have considered selling to a friend end up in a boating accident.
>>61584691>doesn't lift>drives a BMWSo you make bad decisions and like unreliable things, makes sense.
>>61586022Samefag. Thanks for your answer. Aftermarket like holsters and all is important to me, im not in the US, my country is very glock-oriented.
>>61570894False. I carry the weight of knowledge on the daily.
I’m convinced that glocks are 3D printed. Change my mind
>>61570894>There is no reason to carry anything other than a Glock 17ftfy
>>61588404You seem like a massive faggot.
