Hey there fellow Glock nuts... At first I hated a Glock, but If you'd have asked me why, I would not have had a good answer. I started my collection with a Baretta 96. I thought that it was a tried and tested pistol and I had not done a lot of research...I just knew I wanted a pistol for self defense. Well, I'll tell you now that I personally do not like a Baretta. Don't like how they fit my hand, and they get slippery after a few rounds. My second pistol was a Jericho 941, because I wanted one. It was not a good choice for carry, though. Very large and heavy. I still have it and love it...but it's something for the house or thaw range. Then I started doing some research and found that a Glock may be what I wanted. I saw a video on you tube where a guy had buried one for two years, dug it up and put 500 rounds through it no problem. Then I saw the 10000 round ammo dump video. Then...I went out and shot one at my local gun range. I went back to the same gun store a few days later and traded my beat to crap Baretta for a brand new G23 Gen 3 RTF. I bought a Blackhawk Serpa holster a short time later. I know carry it almost everywhere I go. I wouldn't trade it for the world. Glad to be part of the forums, and look forward to learning lots. -Jolly
Hey, JollyTrooper, WELCOME to the Forum! Glad you finally saw the light and Glocked-and-Loaded! Funny how that works, isn't it, that the antiGlock sentiment is often unfounded? Welcome, again, and know that over here you are among friends!
