Rye Miles #13621 Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Well, I shot the 1911 for years. From my time in the Navy up until the late 2000's and then one day I decided enough was enough. I got tired of springs going bad, ejectors going bad, parts going bad, magazines going bad. The final straw was a test I did between a Glock 34 and my Colt 1991A1. I shot them round for round over a couple of range trips to see which did better. At 256 rounds the 1911 stated malfunctioning due to dirt buildup. I lubed the guns every 100 rounds. The 1991A1 went no further. The Glock went to 980 rounds before stovepipng. I disassembled the gun. Knocked it around a bit to get rid of loose chunks, lubed it, reassembled it and then fired another 200 rounds before another malfunction. I gave the 1991A1 to my daughter. That was that. I've owned a couple 1911's, I have 1 right now, never had a problem at all! I have probably 1000 rounds through each of them. Never a malfunction or anything broken. I have a Colt Government model Series 80. I also had a Springfield that was great too! Methinks you may have had a lemon! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sun Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 I used to be the typical "I'm not owning one of those plastic tupperware guns" until I grudgingly bought one because it was a great deal. I have 1911's also. Although I love the 1911, I like the Glocks (at least the ones I own) better. Never have had a problem with them and have no problem with the ergonomics of the gun either. In fact, I find them quite comfortable in my hand. Different bites for different likes I guess.....just so long as it's not slide bites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

czhen Posted December 12, 2019 Share Posted December 12, 2019 Let me run some ideas, Glock 44 +/- 430 plus taxes. If you don't have a Glock it's fine. If you have a 17/19/22/23 already buy a 22 adapter kit for $300 and have 2 options and practice with your trigger. czhen FL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dutch Nichols, SASS #6461 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 Czhen Glockmeister is pre selling the new Glocks for $349 so it’s not a good idea to get said conversion kit when for a few bucks more you get a complete gun Lumpy how’d you get a gen 5 G19 in Cali?

Bad Bascomb, SASS # 47,494 Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 I was, with Lawman's help, getting a handle on Glock model terminology. Then I realized it was a Teutonic sort of thing as I tried to figure out the current model roster of BMW autos...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pat Riot Posted December 18, 2019 Author Share Posted December 18, 2019 I think it’s funny when folks gripe about Glock’s numbering system when Smith & Wesson’s numbering system is worse and much more confusing, especially if you look at their Semi-Autos in the past. My eyes really glaze over with those. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
