Has anyone experienced joint pain in the fingers from handling a glock 19?
When ever i go to a private range i use the 17 (because its more comfortable and the company running the range isnt stupid enough to by glock 19's...but my department is)
There are only a limited number of 17's in stock (or so the armory guys say) the usual excuses is "if we give you one then everybody will want one"

Nope...given I work for a living, my hands are all calloused up. Maybe you should stop being a bitch and toughen up.

calloused hands have fuck all to do with joint paint. why should i put up with it for the next 25plus years?
No.

Define "handling" shooting? cleaning? dry firing? ect?
I have problems with the first joints on all my fingers from overuse but I can't say I've ever been bothered from anything to do with a handgun. YMMV.

Never had that with a Glock, but I get carpal tunnel like pain from handling a stock AR for long.
The grips are just so small, and my hands are so big, that it's painful to hold for long.

Yes, but that's because I have arthritis.
Maybe you have arthritis? Welcome to the club, enjoy the winter.
i dont feel pain but i do find the 19 to be least comfortable glock. something about it just fits wrong. 17 is great. 26 is so so but i understand why it sucks. its too small have to settle for a 2 finger grip. the 19 should be fine but somehow its worse to shoot than the 26. its still usable but i dont like the 19.

I only notice it when loading/unloading at the beginning/end of shift. only shoot it during requals (once a year)

arthritis at 27...fuck

If you shoot a 19 over a 17, you're a manlet with small hands, no matter how "tough" and calloused they are, bitch.
What a stupid and pointless thread.

dept issue, cant be helped. having large hands makes it worse.

its better than some thread about furries owning guns
Split fracture on both of my bones connecting at my wrist got broken in bike accident. Anything bigger than a 45acp fucking hurts it.
