It really just boils down to vanity or inexperience if someone gets something other than a 19. If a person is technically competent but decides against a glock it's generally because the glock is "boring" or some lame ass excuse to project some kind of inadequacy onto their choice of carry piece. If the person cites something like "muh hammer" or "safety" it's because they're not capable of basic safe firearms handling, (i.e. a new/inexperienced shooter.) The first case person will also sometimes cite the latter reason as extra justification sometimes to make themselves feel better.

Well, the upcoming M&P 2.0 compact is the same size and will be cheaper.

I've been waffling back and forth between an 19 gen 5 and an M&P 2.0 compact and right now I think I'm going to go with the M&P. Even at Brownell's preorder price it's cheaper than the glock, looks better, and comes with metal sights.

If I can wait a few months the M&P will drop $100 or so off the price anyway, whereas the glock won't.

And how often do people in CC-using situations actually use every single round? From what i've seen, it frankly wouldn't matter that much if everyone was running around with 6-shot snub-nosed .38 special revolvers. In fact, some people do just that, and manage to not die.
>>
>>35150188
>What if I just don't like glocks because they feel bad in my hand
This is a more reasonable disagreement with glocks but it would fall under both of the cases I mentioned. Have you heard of highly experienced shooters like Miculek and Hickock complaining that the grip angle is holding them back? Glock's grip isn't conducive to being comfy to pick up and point at a gun store, it's meant for being as thin as possible and angled to allow for faster follow up shots.

Rather than trying a gun that "fits" you (an exercise in vanity) you should be looking to find the best gun you can that is appropriate for your use case and become proficient with it. Just think about it, how much do your hands deviate from mine which are anatomically likely to be only minutely different. The grip angle is fine for me, but I'm practiced on it and other guns as well. Most of the people I come across who think this way are generally novice shooters who do not practice much but a few times a year to shoot claiming how awful glocks feel when seasoned shooters are quite often using glocks without issue.

>>35150188
>or if I had a bad experience with one jamming up constantly at a range
Any gun can have FTF issues with worn magazines, bad ammo, etc. Glocks have the some of the highest mean rounds between failures out of modern service guns. The Gen5 glocks, for instance, have 11,000 mean rounds before stoppage and there are gen 5 glocks with over 30k rounds and no replacement parts. Anecdotal experience does not mean much when Glocks are one of the most tested firearms on earth.

Just google ejection problems or FTF problems on any gun and you will find anecdotes about it.
>>
>>35150420
>implying having a lighter weight pistol isn't a plus for anyone that actually carrys pistols instead of retarded fudds that only pick their pistol off the bench to fire before setting it back down.

>Must use every single round to justify having higher capacity

You really think everyone's gun should be empty right at the conclusion a gunfight with the perfect amount of shots fired for the situation before said gun is empty?

>>35150435
I'm also not JM or Hickock, nor do I dismiss their choice in firearms or use. Hicock is clearly fond of strikers, and glocks on top of that. I have ZERO issue with Glock products in terms of basic quality and utility. But there are other valid reasons for not liking the G19. Where I live, it's hot. G19-sized guns don't feel good on me when worn IWB, even Appendix. I prefer smaller, simply put. Yes, glock has other options. But unfortunately those other, smaller options tend to have drawbacks. The smaller guns have the pinky-dangle, which I hate with a fiery passion. or if they are double-stack they feel weirdly thicker than their full-size counterpart. I have tried to like glocks. I have rented them, I have borrowed them. And yet I haven't shot one that really seemed great me or even felt comfy in the hand, in part due to the finger-grooves from hell and the grip angle (I may get to try a G5 G19, which doesn't have the awful grooves so I'm looking forward to that). Call it a hipster thing if you want, but there is no accounting for taste.

These are valid ergonomic complaints that can perfectly justify buying a different model of gun that can, out of the box, satisfy those demands without extra expense in aftermarket parts or time.

>>35150566
>These are valid ergonomic complaints
Unless you are some kind of freak that falls outside of standard of deviation you likely have the exact same ergonomic concerns as everyone else who manages to use glocks just fine.

You are likely exhibiting a symptom of projection where you believe yourself to be the exception for no other reason except for your own pre-conceived sentiments that are baseless beyond how you "feel." You search for a gun that can alleviate the "unique" considerations you require based on nothing but a misguided novice's intuition. A glock isn't meant to "feel good or "point naturally." That's the kind of thing that sells a gun to a novice who compares a few guns by pointing them in a gunstore. A glock is meant to function according to the most severe demands. That means a gun conducive to accuracy, reliability, and follow up shots. The glock grip angle is a direct result of that. Secondly they got rid of the finger grooves so people with malformed hands and sausage fingers can shoot them, too.

Go here and see if your hands really are outside of a standard of deviation. Hand measurements start at page 337. If you're anything but outside of the standard of deviation, you're probably just a hipster who's full of shit trying to convince yourself and others that you really are special.

http://mreed.umtri.umich.edu/mreed/downloads/anthro/ansur/Gordon_1989.pdf

>>35150612
That's not true at all. Modern bolt actions, precision shooting, and other bolt action activities have many more considerations. Budget is a huge one, while caliber offerings, twist rates/rifling, and reloading considerations/ammo availability also play a factor.
>>
>>35150758
Also some other hand measurements on page 198, too.
>>
>>35150758
>a gun shouldn't point naturally
Ok then. WHY would you choose a tool you use to be LESS intuitive to you?

You still didn't address the very serious issue of SIZE. I am sure I am not the only person in the world to think that a G19 is still too big to conceal regularly in a hot climate, let alone in a situation where bending/leaning is common, and appendix just isn't conductive to that.

I have never said I am "special". They don't feel comfy to me. Period. I have made several attempts to use them, and will again with the Gen 5 G19, which seems to address some of the issues I have with regards to the finger grooves (my fingers are thin actually, I just don't like the feeling of things between my fingers). I am much happier with an M&P grip, or a PPQ grip, or a M&P Shield grip, the P2000sk (but not the P30 or VP9), or even the massive Beretta 92fs. Hell, I really liked the G43 grip.
>>
>>35150273
It only fits 15 rounds when a G17 holds 2 more. It by definition is less functional than its closest comparative glock peer.

>>35150878
>Ok then. WHY would you choose a tool you use to be LESS intuitive to you?
You're a novice. The way you naturally point and hold something is decidedly worse than an experienced person would. You may be able to point brand y at a gunstore's wall better but that doesn't translate to being more effective with it except at a beginner level. Glock's grip angle is conducive to allowing better high demand shooting for trained users. You don't intend to be a beginner forever, right?

>You still didn't address the very serious issue of SIZE. I am sure I am not the only person in the world to think that a G19 is still too big to conceal regularly in a hot climate
I'm carrying in Nevada. It's pretty hot here. I also used to carry in Florida too if you want to try and discount dry heat.

>I have never said I am "special". They don't feel comfy to me.

You're not supposed to like it. You're supposed to shoot well with it.

>>35150944
Same height as a G17, less capacity, less utility. HK has always had relative gimped handgun magazine capacity in 9mm in all of their models.

Vehicles have more dimensions of utility than handguns do, though.

>no really my feelings will make be a better shooter
not what i said, and even pro shooters have preferences. ignoring what you prefer is not a recipe for success and only a rabid glockfag would argue otherwise.

>no really novice handicaps are not a training scar at all
I mean clearly if you put the same time into a gun you already prefer due to ergonomics/shootability you wont be happier than if you put that same time into a gun you don't right, right?

Literally a moronic opinion.

>well most defensive shootings shots are never fired so we don't even need anything past single shot pistols!

grats on having three moronic strawmans in a row. if you don't realize that each extra round offers diminishing returns as capacity increases then you may be actually retarded.

Glock's grip angle is conducive to allowing better high demand shooting for trained users. You don't intend to be a beginner forever, right?

Is this new pasta? /k/ has had a drought recently
>>
>>35151101
I've discounted his complaint since he believes it isn't ergonomically conducive to him when I gave him one of the best existing resources to verify that claim. Glock works well with all people that fall under a standard of deviation for hand ergonomics.

Secondly his arguments are only present among inexperienced amateurs so it would follow that he is in that category and does need to git gud.

>>35151116
>ignoring what you prefer is not a recipe for success
Prove it. Every proficient glock shooter there is with the same ergonomic considerations as those within a standard of anatomical hand model dimensions have all managed to become proficient with it. There is no reason to believe that someone else isn't just as capable or that any preference is a hindrance to becoming just as good as someone who prefers glocks (or rather a person who doesn't try to intentionally deviate from a glock).

I never preferred glock ergonomics, and it does point incorrectly for me naturally. I however have come to appreciate that the grip angle is more angled for better follow up shots. It's about performance and not about comfort. A McClaren is not a comfortable car to be in, but it is made that way as part of it being a performance car. The finger grooves, however, I don't even notice, and I suppose are quite nice for me to be fair.

>no really it's about how happy you are when you shoot your gun, that's the most important thing, especially for a carry piece! Never mind any kind of optimal performance concerns.

>Anybody who carries a 5 shot j frame counts on never having to fire a round for SD, anyone who's serious CCWs a AR pistol with a 100 round beta mag
Either you can admit that HK 9mm magazines are less functional than a comparative glock peer (and thus the P30 is a less functional gun) or you can try to convince yourself that highly efficient magazine design isn't a functional part of a gun.

Now look I get that a lot of you guys might not know this but Glocks are the greatest handgun ever devised. You know who likes Glocks? R Lee Ermey
You know who else likes em? Hickok45

They're used by like 75% of police departments, so you know they're high quality instruments. They're available in basically every caliber and oh yeah every color - so long as it's black. Heh. The new Glock gen 5 might be the best Glock, Glock has ever produced. It's got no finger grooves and it's got an ACCURIZED barrel. You read that right the new Glock barrel will literally make your groups shrink. Oh yeah and no finger grooves, they're practically improving on perfection. Hear about the new finish they're putting on these bad boys? They call it DLC - I hear it even stronger than tenifer. Price? MSRP is 675, but I'll let you in on al little secret. I've got some connections with the higher ups in the Glock factory in Smyrna, and basically I can sell you this Glock gen 5 for 645 bucks. I'll even throw in this sweet MOSS PAWN ZOMBIE SLAYER hat

Glocks just don't blow up, kay? Gaston has refused to release his special recipe of polymer to anyone else, which is why they you pretty much shoot 10mm loads in a glock 22 and reliability will INCREASE due to the extra pressure. Of course if you run out of your mega 40 loads just throw some 357 sig (glock) down the pipe and you've got 9mm +p+ on steroids.

Not even mad. I'm the glockshill with the earlier reply limit posts. I lay it out on the table why glocks are, to use an analogy, the honda civic of every day commute cars. Pure utility wise a glock does it best. Every argument I've heard against them is pretty pathetic and often reeks of inexperienced shooter or hipster. It's completely valid to buy other handguns than a glock. I have others and some I've carried as well. Don't just try and pretend that such a decision is a utilitarian one just as I don't try to pretend that something like my USP is the better gun when it isn't despite how much cooler and nicer made it is.

Are you literally autistic? I ask that as seriously as possible. Some people have preferences for different things, it's not a fucking conspiracy.

Some people like different things, and he gave a perfectly fine explanation as to why and you literally went full tism on him. Christ, you can like glocks and recommend them as good pistols, but you're taking it to this entirely new level of fanboyism.

He said it would be better for him because glocks are incompatible with his hands. Do you believe his hands are different enough from mine or other proficient glock shooters to warrant that statement to be true? The statistical likelihood of that is quite low. I gave him the chart so he could diagnose if his feeling is supported by factual evidence and something other than just his feelings. You know they use these kinds of measurements for designing grips and furniture, right?

>Some people have preferences for different things, it's not a fucking conspiracy.
If I were to have a preference for wearing oversized boots for hiking should I wear them or a more fitting boot to avoid foot injuries? My preference for what I interpret as comfortable and fitting might not actually be what has been demonstrated to be optimal for my feet. An experienced hiker will know the importance of a properly fitted boot regardless of his pre-existing notions of comfort he might apply to his casual shoes.

A glock is designed to work within a range from 50th percentile hand size. If that guy was quite abnormal in his hand measurement(s) then it would follow that his notion of ergonomic incompatibility is well founded. If he has a normal hand then the only differing factor between a glock user with a similar hand would be his shitty opinion. I provided that data to turn his opinion into either a supported argument or a bullshit claim.

That's only weight near the muzzle. This is why les baer monoliths and that fk bro pistol look the way they do.

Bore axis and delayed recoil via dual recoil springs are much bigger factors for fast follow up shots

Buying a modern Walther anything is the definition of contrarian. Carrying a single stack CC piece is objectively worse than a double stack. If you somehow can't conceal a double stack but you can carry a single stack you need to either change your attire if appropriate or just accept the fact you're relegated to a worse performing handgun. I don't try to claim my M&P shield is better than my glock 19, nor that it's a better carry gun. My 19 is far better than it.

You do realize that isn't inherently bad right? contrarian merely means you do differently than most people do.

>opposing or rejecting popular opinion; going against current practice.

Hell, technically speaking carrying a g19 would be contrarian as well. While it may be one of or even the most popular singular model of carry gun it is certainly going to be less common than other guns combined. particularly single stack sub compacts and snubbies.

Carrying a double stack duty sized gun is much more contrarian than carrying a subcompact anything.

>Carrying a single stack CC piece is objectively worse than a double stack.

No again. They're better at different things.

Also, while the benefit of additional capacity is largely illusory as it is extremely unlikely that you'll even fire a gun in SD let alone need an additional 7 rounds after you go through the first 8, being smaller and lighter is of constant benefit to the user.

Judging by your other posts im just wasting my time here though, you're clearly a legitimately autistic moron who is so far on the spectrum that they lack the basic amount of empathy and human understanding necessary to realize that when it comes to subjective matters of personal preference there are often multiple options that are simply better at achieving different things as opposed to a singular "right" answer.

In a perfect world you would be either sterilized, institutionalized, or euthanized.
>>
>>35148834
It's ok that other guns offer options that people may like better than Glock. Glock is a great manufacturer and the 19 is a really good piece. I shoot my friends all the time. I, however, went another route and have found the same reliability, better ergs, better sights, and features that I wanted on my firearm. Your going to be just fine.

Being able to shoot bullets is the entire raison d etre of a gun. Being able to shoot bullets and being concealable is the entire point of a CC piece. Either your clothes/body are appropriate to carrying the best gun for the task or you have to settle in a compromise with an inferior gun. If humans were somehow practically suited to CC 7" AR-15's on a regular basis that would likely be the gold standard and handguns would be the inferior choice, however Glock 19's have demonstrably been the best suitable gun for CC.

If you just came out and said
>the Glock is the better performing gun, but I'm just interested in these differing specific criteria. I'm fine with having less capacity and the other benefits associated with something like the G19. Since my job/social situations require x attire that isn't suited well for CC I'm better off carrying a smaller/worse gun.
Nobody could criticize that. However, all you say is
>well this other single stack gun is relatively better
and I just come by to demonstrate that it does nothing better than the G19 and see everyone throwing shitfits because they can't handle their choice of carry being called inferior. I carry other inferior, single stack, handguns, not as my EDC, but there are instances when I do when it's more appropriate. I don't try to pretend that they are better, I just acknowledge they are suited for more constraining CC requirements that preclude the use of better CC guns.

It's funny you say that since bank robbers also plan on not shooting criminals and also plan on shooting exclusively to run away :^)
