I'm jelly. Which would you take with you in SHTF if you expect to see combat and can only take one?
>>
>>34532120
Glock. It's the most common handgun on earth.
Less parts. Sig has a 10lb trigger pull that's unacceptable

What did he mean by this?

Probably referring to the double action trigger pull. Single action is 4.5 pounds. Sounds like someone who can't walk and chew bubblegum at the same time if the double action is that big a deal to him.

Glock

Sphinx 3000. Or glock if it's that or a sig.
and what caliber?
9mm

The question is timmy as fuck but I'll bite:

I don't have a pic but I own 2 P226's and 2 Glock 19's
>stamped German P226
>Pre Cohen trade-in P226R

>2 Gen 4 G19's one I use for training

I would pick the Glock 19, everytime. There's very little practical advantages of a P226 compared to a Glock 19. I can conceal the Glock 19 everyday, it is smaller more lightweight and can shoot it just as well as my 226. The extra weight and bulk of the P226 doesn't warrant the trouble of having to carry it everyday.

The fact that you can detail strip and maintain a Glock without any sort of extensive armory tools make it a huge plus in your "SHTF" fantasies, you can get to the smallest part in your Glock without having to whack the fuck out of an assload of rollpins, something that cannot be said about Sigs.

They both have extensively proven track records in both military and law enforcement, I would have no qualms being issued a P226 or Glock 17/19.
>>34532171
He meant to say that he sucks ass at shooting and cannot manage a double action trigger pull. 10lb DA is fucking nothing. Nothing. Even that, Sigs have very good double action trigger pulls stock.
>>
>>34532120
I've got both and I like everything about the 226 more than the 19. Can't say much for durability because I don't beat the shit out of my guns.

Glock, 9mm.

Also, Glocks are more rust resistant than stainless steel Sigs. Let that sink in for a while.

Got 'em both. Durability wise, the Sig is overbuilt to take ammo and a pounding, but my Glock has the same problem: just werks.

Both have never misfired save for shit ammo.

SHTF? Probably the Glock simply for the weight. I spent the dosh for both because both shoot great, but if it's a serious thing, I'd have to consider weight, and all other things equal, that's top priority if I'm running with a full load including an AR15 or AK.

I'd take the 226 cause if I die I'm gonna have a nice gun on me.

you will not say shit like that once you've tuned your MR73 trigger to 2.5lbs... and yes, it would be perfectly safe to carry too.

Why do people say Glock 19 is better for SHTF than Glock 17? Is it solely because it's smaller, lighter, more concealable? Or is it easier to find replacement parts for?
Which is easier to find replacement parts for, Glock 17 or Glock 19?
And how about the 21? I understand it's a different caliber, but will replacement parts be as commonly available for the 21 as for the 17 and 19?
Will they all be equally durable?

>Why do people say Glock 19 is better for SHTF than Glock 17?

dunno. G26 would be my goto for SHTF because I can drop it into my boot. for everything else, I'd have my rifle at low ready at all times. SHTF=war and handguns are of limited use in wartime.
>>
>>34532259
>Why do people say Glock 19 is better for SHTF than Glock 17? Is it solely because it's smaller, lighter, more concealable?

Yes to all. Also there's hardly aNY difference ballistically between 9mm shot out of either barrel length. This is why the recent glock mhs submission had a g19 sized slide/barrel.

Glock 19 is the most common glock sold, but don't base your purchase decision for a shtf gun over commonality like you'll just "find" handgun parts lying around like fallout. If you're worried about spare parts, buy some beforehand, no matter which gun you decide on.

No, you retard, it means collapse of civilization, not open battlefields with soldiers shooting at each other. Sure, there would be insurgencies in towns but most parts of the territory would go by just fine, just without the modern "commodities".

In a deteriorated society gone WROL, all handguns should be 9mm pistols, all pistols should be Glocks and all Glocks should be Glocks 19.

>Why do people say Glock 19 is better for SHTF than Glock 17? Is it solely because it's smaller, lighter, more concealable? Or is it easier to find replacement parts for?
Yes and also yes.
>Which is easier to find replacement parts for, Glock 17 or Glock 19?
19, but most are interchangeable. The biggest difference is you can't use G19 mags in a G17, but you can do the vice versa.
>And how about the 21? I understand it's a different caliber, but will replacement parts be as commonly available for the 21 as for the 17 and 19?
No. You now have even less interchangeable parts with the most common handgun in the world and will have a harder time finding ammo.
>Will they all be equally durable?
Yes, but the G21 will wear down first if you use full power fuddy five AARP loads. That's one of the few times raw energy matters. It has to go somewhere.
>>
>>34532304
>If you're worried about spare parts, buy some beforehand, no matter which gun you decide on.

having supplies stored is a given but when you're on the move, you can't bring the sink. you have to focus on water, ammo, a reliable primary, comms if you have friends and maybe a secondary weapons.

Do you guys (and anyone else who wants to add input) keep any spare parts for your guns in your bug out bag? And if so, what parts? For your rifle, your pistol, or both?
>>
>>34532319
>No, you retard, it means collapse of civilization, not open battlefields with soldiers shooting at each other.

collapse of civilization means war. look at recent history and current conflicts you "retard". "that's a nice AR, nice wife and nice stash of antibiotics you have there stranger - it would be a shame if something happened to them...."

>Sure, there would be insurgencies in towns but most parts of the territory would go by just fine, just without the modern "commodities".

pfft. keep dreaming. you'll be fine until the remnants of the ARMY/national guard run out of supplies and start moving out, looking for stuff - armed to the teeth with humvees and M2s...

>In a deteriorated society gone WROL, all handguns should be 9mm pistols, all pistols should be Glocks and all Glocks should be Glocks 19.

Ok James Yaeger, the nearest ditch is right over there.

Springs for both. Springs are always the first to go.

Good luck finding your special snowflake caliber.
Good luck maintaining, finding parts and ammo for your fuddy five steel framed gun.

For one good steel framed handgun, you can buy two Glock 19.
And two is one, one is none.

>>34532384
You have no example of such cases, stop daydreaming and fantasizing about hollywood scenarios you retard.

>>34532400
If two is one and one is none, then two is none. So why bother with any guns?
>>
>>34532380
>Do you guys (and anyone else who wants to add input) keep any spare parts for your guns in your bug out bag? And if so, what parts? For your rifle, your pistol, or both?

I have 3 groups of mags. #1 is mags in storage for rainy days (Shtf), unloaded. I don't mess with those. #2 is mags for use, loaded and ready to go. #3 is mags for training, they get tossed around, scratched up, wet, muddy etc.

That's the "important spare" parts imo. For my two Glock 26 for edc, I have 3 sets of all the internals ready. Sold my G19 because I have no need for it.
>>
>>34532414
>MUH AK NEVA JAMS AND NEVA BREAKS
>ARS ARE JAMOMATIC JUST ASK MY GRANDPA HE WAS A SPECIAL MARINE OPS CORPS IN WORLD WAR VIETNAM
Parts and ammo availability beats fuddlore every day. Good luck getting imports after the total collapse of society. I wouldn't bet on Red Dawn happening as a primary source of parts and ammo if you lose access to your stockpile.

I have plenty examples, most recently Lybia and Syria. if you don't belong to a group and are well known (so you're own people don't kill you by "accident") you're shit outta luck if a rival group gets ahold of you.
>>
>>34532414
>not an AK

quality ARs are much more common in the US than quality AKs. so hedge your bets appropriately. also, in SHTF, as a one man army, I want a sub 1MOA guns that helps me make every single round count because I can't carry 20k of them. what I want for shtf is a maximum accuracy gun with minimal weight. ARs can be made to fit that bill these days the best.

Not to start trouble, but what about something like a CZ SP-01? Been thinking about getting one for a while now.
>>
>>34532380
No, since the concept of "bugging out" i.e. putting a bunch of camping gear and weapons together and livimg outside, is retarded and asking for trouble. I have spare springs and a different barrel at my house. If it burns down or gets fucked somehow, I have a smaller cottage in the woods several hours away.
>>
>>34532120
Glock would be best for SHTF just because it's so common and you can find spare parts for it and after market accessories and mags. Sig is a better gun though.
Preferably id want a striker fired stainless steel formed pistol with a manual safety of SHTF from technical specs.
>>
>>34532255
There is no way the DA pull is 2.5 lbs.

Sig because that's the one I'm used to, I like it more, and I can't field strip a Glock to save my life.
Fuck you Gaston for putting your tiny little shits I can't catch.
