“Ohhhhh”

Bou,

P-3W,

I was a Glock fan (after being a Sig fan) after I had to carry a Glock (21) for the first time. I'm even more of a Glock-believer after going to the Glock Armorer's Course. Glock's are engineering marvels. I've carried 1911's, Sigs, Beretta's and Glocks on duty. Sigs are very nce, but they're too heavy and too expensive. If you like .45's, get a Glock 21SF, if you like .40's get a Glock 23 and if you like 9mm's get a Glock 19. IMHO, a Glock pistol is THE best combat handgun (out of the box) bar none. They're not too expensive, most of them have the same parts and they go "bang" 9.5 times out of 10, which is better than other brands. Glock owns almost 70% of the US Law Enforcement market. There's a reason for that. I'd trust my life with a Glock or Sig, but if I had my choice it'd be a Glock. A good name-brand M-4/AR-15 is a good rifle choice.
