What are "better," cheaper options than the Glock?
I keep seeing this statement over and over again every time there's a Glock argument and I'm wondering what particular guns people are talking about?

>Inb4 SDVE
>>
>M&P9
>PX4
>P07

Don't fall for the XD meme whatever you do, they're usually pushed by gun shop clerks onto new gun owners that gawk at how "expensive"Glocks are compared to them.

To note: anyone who says Glocks are expensive are massive poorfags that need to get the fuck off the internet for a while and find a job.

Canik makes some pretty good, affordable, options.
A lot of people will shit on them because "hurr durr funding terrorism," but the fact of the matter is is that they're damn good pistols. They can take a beating, reliable, can feed any ammo without hangups, and feel great in the hand.

it's bullshit, there are not better guns than a GLOCK that are significantly cheaper, there are cheaper guns, but not cheaper better guns. A new Gen 3 GLOCK is like $475-499, there is not a more reliable firearm for significantly less

I would say 200dollars would be significantly less, 50bucks is not

that's a big difference, are glocks taxed coming in or something?

Glocks went up in price during election year. Gen 4 in 2015 were 490$ and in 2016 increased to 540$. Even CZ 75 went up in price and are now in the 550$ range.
>>
>>33101815
No idea why there's a huge difference. Glocks are waayyyyyy overpriced up here.

>>33101874
It's not the exchange rate or taxes. That's just retail price. And those would effect both guns equally.

But look:

http://www.cabelas.ca/product/78768/glock-17-gen-4-semi-auto-pistol

1050 for a Glock 17 gen 4, which is 800 USD

http://www.bullseyelondon.com/century-arms-canik-tp9sa-semi-auto-full-size-pistol-9mm-black-with-holster-hg3759-n.html

TP9 range kit for 570$, or 435 USD

It's nuts

You probably brag about driving your Chevy Sonic to get groceries at Wal-Mart to bring back to your apartment in a neighborhood that necessitates owning a firearm.

Nothing wrong with any of that, but why the fuck would you gloat about being so completely pedestrian? Also 1500 on a device you entrust your life with is a small investment.

I own multiple Glocks. I also own multiple Sd(9) and (40) VEs. The VE is pushed because it's a cheaper Glock. I have over 10k rounds of cheapo ammo through mine and the only F2F were because of dud rounds. I went 3k without cleaning my sd40 and it still functioned perfectly. There is no reason to hate it.

I'm quoting anti-Glock faggots.
I constantly hear this same argument over and over, that there are "better," cheaper options to the Glock.
The only answer I've gotten in this thread that I find acceptable so far is
>>33101900
and this good argument for the SDVE, but I already knew about that gun

I bought my new Glock 19 gen 4 last November for $449.99 (no tax). I'm very happy with it.
>>
>>33102123
>and this good argument for the SDVE,

there might be very little wrong with the SDVE but it is not better than a glock, nor is a ruger

they are OK guns but not appreciably better in any way, and they are not that much cheaper

basically a quality full size (not some single stack little .380) firearm is going to run you 500bucks
>>
>>33102210
Sorry I should have clarified. I'm not agreeing that they are better, just that it could be argued if you really wanted to go there that maybe they are just as good if not better.

To me, I think the reason people hate on the Glock so much is because it's "boring" to shoot, or it's not stylish etc etc,

I could even understand all the hate against the fan base, but when they're right about it all, that it's not expensive, reliable, tons of aftermarket, hi cap mags like the 33 round mag, versatile (Glock 26 can take 19 and 17 mags), etc etc. I just don't see the issue.
Maybe if you pay 1k+ you could find a better gun, but it'd only be because maybe you don't like the grip or something.

A couple of options that many consider better than, or at least as good as a Glock:

Sig P320
Walther PPQ
CZ P10 C

>>33102302

Are you really that delusional that you think the VE isn't as good as a Glock? They are a fucking clone and S@W were sued by Glock FOR it being a clone. I've put more rounds through them than you have probably shot out of any gun your whole life. It will fire without fail every time you pull the trigger. /k/ can be retarded sometimes but threads like these are the worst. Trust fund Fudds who think that a company putting out overpriced firearms is justified. I bet you're the type of person who builds a $7,000 Ar and still only shoots steel case ammunition out of it.

Define "Better". I really hate this rank bullshit that people have been doing for the last 10 or so years. We live in the modern era. Handguns, by and large(And this is a wide generalization), are more or less equally reliable. The ones that aren't(RP9, for example) are quickly found out about.

If a handgun checks off the following things, it really boils down to personal preference

>Is it reliable? Does it feed ammunition?
>Is it CONSISTENT. Working all of the time with one kind of ammo but not with what you carry isn't consistent.
>Is it made of high quality materials and won't break from normal use?
>Is it accurate? Can you(Or anyone) hit what you're aiming at?

By and large most of the handgun owning public will not go through the "Torture test" shit that people do. It's nice to have to point to, but most handguns boil down to three things: Caliber preference, Size, weight and ergonomics, and capacity.

Pick what you want so as long as it works.

This shit isn't like the70s-80s where you HAD to buy one of a few manufacturers and you weren't even sure it would feed hollowpoints.

I'm very hard pressed to find a handgun that DOESN'T feed HPs out of the box.

>>33102313

Umm, wrong. If you check slickguns, the P320C is currently $460. Walther PPQ M1 can be had for $480 currently. Both of those are cheaper than any deal currently available for the Glock 19 G4 (or the G3 for that matter).

Unless you're the kind of moron that goes to your LGS and pays for the mark-up.

This. A brand new tp9 can be had for under $300. It's turkshit but it's reliable turkshit that goes bang.

What are "better," cheaper options than the Glock?

The FNS-9C retails for the same amount as a Glock 26, but, unlike the Glock 26, it comes with a 3 slot rail, stock night sights, and a far better factory trigger. You can also buy it with a manual safety or without. Furthermore, if you want to save some money, you can also buy the 9c without the night sights for $50-70 less.

How is that not a better deal than the Glock?

This always makes me kek. Global economies make it so almost everything you buy will cause some of the money to get funneled to somewhere in the ME.

>Don't fall for the XD meme
Can't say I agree in the least bit on that one.
If he left that store with any of the options you listed, including an XD or XDM he'd be a happy camper.
Having a personal preference is fine and good. I personally prefer Beretta. But to work yourself into disliking a solid series and calling it a meme is just silly.
I'll say straight up that I went in and bought my first few XD/Ms thinking they were Glock ripoff crap. Turns out I was half correct. They were Glock ripoffs initially. But they sure as shit weren't crap lol.
If anyone can show me a timestamped picture that they own an XD or XDM and still say they hate it, I'll believe for a second that they aren't just fangirling themselves into a meme.
Otherwise just say what you prefer and leave it at that.
