![]() In the Military arena many brands and designs have been fantastic military designs Special Ops really do not count for much since they have a separate budget, separate needs and can have a variety of weapons that are never adopted by the larger main stram military. I am just saying that while there is absolutely nothing wrong with a Glock they do not represent what they once did especialy in the civilian market. Benning in 1988 when Glocks hit the market in the USA so I was around all kinds of gear. I grew up with Walther’s, CZ’s, 1911’s, AMT, Colt Anaconda’s and Pythons first gen, Dan Wessons. I am not new to handguns I have owned handguns since the time you could get a CZ75 new for $275 or a Rugger Super RedHawk for $400. They have to either lower their price point or offer many fold great reliability, durability or accuracy to be worth the money in light of the significant competition that is on par with them today! I am not anti-Glock either I just do not see what they have to offer at the significantly higher price point. A lot of companies are making plastic fantastics that are striker fired and super reliable! Thousands of rounds latter it still has not malfunctioned and neither has my sons.

There was a time when they were abnormally reliable and low maintenance. I took Glock until the 5th Gen to make a handgun designed to fit the hand of an average human being male or female. Other special operations forces have a diverse mission set that might call for a concealable weapon on Monday and a duty weapon on Friday, and the Glock 19 is just right in the size department for a multi-mission role. The CIA and Marines specifically wanted a concealable pistol with the Glock 19. Glock 26 Gen5: New Subcompact Ready for Concealed Carry Glock has been on top of this market since the mid-1990s, when it introduced the line that became known as baby Glocks. The Glock 19 is a good in-between size that allows it to serve as both a duty handgun and a concealable firearm. It’s smaller than most duty-sized handguns, like the M9, M17, and M1911. The weapon features a 4.02-inch-long barrel, an overall length of 7.28 inches, a height of 5.04 inches, and it weighs a little over 30 ounces, fully loaded with 15 rounds of 9mm. The Glock 19 is considered a compact handgun, but don’t let that fool you: it’s still a handgun large enough to fill your hand.
