If I'm looking for a personal protection Glock what should I go with?

I love the 1911, I think I would like something smaller for CC.

I have a G19 but I wish they made one in 45 the same size. I am becoming a fan of the 9mm though. Just have to carry the right ammo I guess. Great CC gun. Hides well with just a tshirt.

^^^they do kina...... the G30 its thicker but side by side w a 19 they are about the same.


this is a VARY generic question, any GLOCK will do but it's about what one is right for you and your comfort.

rick757, Maybe look into the 10mm, Got a lot of pump with Double Tap ammo and not too big for CC.

I personally would stay away from "odd" rounds if it was my only handgun.
Lets just say **** gets REALLY bad ( we r not far from it) you will ALWAYS be able to find NATO rounds, that will not be the case with rnds like .40, 10mm, 357sig, 45gap.

!0-4 to that. Just making a suggestion but I like to stay with the basics. 9mm,45ACP,5.56,7.62x39. Feed most of the things I have and plenty of it out there when the crap breaks out.

If you hunt around you can find 1K 9mm for under $225, try to come any where close to that with any other caliber than a .22lr conversion and you will likely find a unicorn standing next to a pot of gold.

I in no way feel under gunned with a 9mm with modern hollow points vs any of the other calibers. Plus I get to train all day for less than half what you do with a .45 using ball ammo. The value of full power training should not be underestimated.

If I was stuck to only using ball ammo or a non .mil caliber due to local/state/federal restrictions I would use what I could.

I currently have a brace of Gen 4 G19's

Or if you want a fullframe you can get a G17 for 9mm or a G22 for .40 i just got a G17 (GEN 3) you can find one cheap Gander Mountian is selling Most 3Gen glocks for $499 i dont think you can go wrong with a 3Gen.
