I'm looking to buy a pistol for the first time. Really leaning toward the Glock 23, but I wanted some opinions on things I'm maybe not considering. All comments welcome.

.40 is useless. Go with whatever you want in 9mm.

.40 just isn't particularly good at anything. Not the size of a .45 but you still don't get quite the magazine capacity as a 9mm counterpart.

But it'll still put holes in whatever you shoot at.

>>33552031
9mm - high capacity
.45 - big holes
.40 - neither
>>
>>33552031
I suggest you get the 22 it'll have less recoil of a 23 or 27 but still some recoil

Ignore the meme sprouters.

40 is better then 45 becuase it has more cap,and has more velocity and penetration.

It's better then 9mm becuase it's slightly bigger and has more velocity and penetration since high pressure round.

Having 1-2 rounds less then 9mm is not fucking low cap you fucking spergs.

With that said I carry a glock 19.

Thoughts on the 32

>>33552363
Not sure other then it's a wannabe .357 mag stay away from the snowflakes round.

Also 1.25$ every shot you take.

Would parrot the suggestion of a G22 over a G23. You can have a grip chop done later if you only can afford one gun and want to conceal it easier. Also there are conversion barrels for the 40 s&w pistols that will allow you to shoot 9mm. Or buy the Swiss army knife of Flocks and go with the G20. Stock it shoots a humdinger 10mm, drop in barrels allow 40/357 sig/9mm/9x25 Dillon, add a G21 slide with barrel & magazine for fudd action 45 ACP. It would allow you to get into multiple calibers cheaper. Protip: hold a full-size G20 (same as G21) if it feels huge find the SF model, the difference is small but noticable.

I've got a 32, its only as expensive as 45 to feed.

357SIG is my very favorite pistol round, it's what my first gun is chambered in.
>>
Yes, get a Corolla. Don't worry about octanes. 87 is cheap and 91 is potent, but 89 octane has solid performance.
>>
You can run steel case through your glock without feeling guilty and save dollarydoos affording you more range time or savings toward additional firearms.

>but extractor wear

Would you rather buy a $20 extractor after thousands of rounds or spend $2-4 more per box of ammo? If a range trip is 150-300rnds that's $6-$24 saved right there. Multiply by twice a month for a year puts you at $144-$576 annual savings by using steel case. The steel case puss argument rustles me.
