What is your purpose in owning this firearm? What is your overall physical build?

When I turn 21 I'm going for the FN Five Seven. Glock makes a pretty reputable product but it's become like the AR-15. It's just the standard and everyone has one which in a lot of cases isn't a bad thing.

Famous wrote Looking to purchase my first gun (pistol) when I get my CCW this month. I was looking into Glocks and they look nice. Anyone have thoughts?

Lucky you, no conceal carry in Canada... :feelsbadman:

20 round clips .224 rounds it's a great gun like i mentioned above that's a lot of money to put into a gun. Last i looked the cheaper models (only rated for like 5k rounds i think) were still around $1400.

I recommend everybody just get a basic home defense gun for first one.

My dad conceal carries a .357 Magnum with 38 special ammunition for max "one shot" stopping power.

He would get more stopping power with actual
.357 rounds but the .38 specials are easier on the wallet

The real gun crime would be owning a hi point lmaooo, straight trash.

Glock is worth the price. Superior quality and customization.

You sire haven't kept up with the stress test that hi point has been putting it's products though for the last five years like i said they stepped their game up.

Doesn't really matter though my hi point 45 is an older model from when they were as you say trash. It shoots straight because i sited it in and it never jams because i clean it after every use. I have put an easy 10k rounds through it as well.

Glock isn't worth all the extra money it's not like you get extra functions out of it, still just a gun. The only reason you would need something like a glock or austra is if you are just super lazy and won't ever do regular maintenance.

If you can't be responsible enough to do maintenance on a gun you really shouldn't own one.

Glock makes same size holes as any other gun of same calber, It shoots just as straight, they are made of the same materials, you just pay an extra $500 for a stamp then think anybody that doesn't is foolish.. Tends to be this way with all expensive things.

I have $200 guns and i have an fnh .224 pistol that cost $2200 and either gun will stop a threat for my life. Both have the boom boom come out the same end. Lastly both of them still fire without jamming all my guns do because i take care of my stuff.

If you insist on listening to all the have to have name brand people then i recommend getting a smith and Essen as it's a very big well known brand that doesn't charge ridiculous prices for their name.

I do like the S&W M&P2.0's. I considered getting one of those, but I like the trigger pull better on the Glock. Plus, the M&P2.0 is $560, and I can get a brand new Glock for $400...
