Glocks Aren't Perfect?
May 2, 2012
1. Many factory new defective magazines (rounds fall out, other rounds stuck
inside) These are real Glock mags not Korean or other aftermarket mags.
2. New in box, trigger flops around, no spring or spring not connected.
3. Slide stop notch battered into nothingness in less than 3000 rounds.
4. Recoil spring guide breaks during installation.
5. Recoil spring guide breaks during firing.
Been shooting Glocks for years. That's just my own personal experience. You
can find more.

Glock ILS Information
In 2003, Glock announced the Internal Locking System (ILS) safety feature.
The ILS is a manually activated lock that is located in the back of the
pistol's grip. It is cylindrical in design and, according to Glock, each key
is unique. When activated, the lock causes a tab to protrude from the rear
of the grip giving both a visual and tactile indication as to whether the
lock is engaged or not. When activated, the ILS renders the Glock unfireable
as well as making it impossible to disassemble. When disengaged, the ILS
adds no further safety mechanisms to the Glock pistol. The ILS is available
as an option on most Glock pistols. Glock pistols cannot be retrofitted to
accommodate the ILS. The lock must be factory built in Austria and shipped
as a special order.

Which Gun To Buy. Glock 19 or Glock 23?
July 25, 2011
I intend to buy my first handgun and i prefer glock. what should i get glock
19 or glock 23. i never fired a gun before.
Richard
Response - Richard,
Before you buy your gun I would suggest that you get proper instruction, go
to the range and fire a few rounds off first. Try a variety of guns to see
what is best for you. You might end up saving yourself a lot of money if you
find you picked the wrong gun or can't handle the recoil.
When I took my first gun course, a women in the class bought a handgun and
brought it with her to the class (for the shooting portion). When she shot
the gun (for the first time) she didn’t like it at all (too much recoil).
She left the class without finishing the course. The instructors offered her
the use of a less powerful gun but she became too afraid of guns and walked
away.
That being said, a Glock 19 and Glock 23 are great guns. I own a G19 and it
is my favorite gun.
Last week I was at the range and had a chance to shoot a G23 (.40 S&W) and
compare it with my G19 (9 mm Luger). I found out something interesting about
both guns. See Glock 19/Glock 23 Warning.
The guns are basically identical except for the ammo that they shoot.
Here are some things to consider when you make your choice.
- The Glock 23 has slightly more “stopping power†(but I don’t know if that
difference really matters).
- The Glock 23 has slightly more recoil ( I could barely notice the
difference).
- The Glock 19 ammo (9 mm Luger) is cheaper and more plentiful.
- At the range I see a lot more people shooting 9 mm than .40 caliber.
- Availability of parts, mods, enhancements and accessories are probably
about the same for both guns.
I would personally go with the Glock 19 but I am a little biased.
But, seriously, you need to get instruction and shoot them before you buy
them.
Best regards,
Tanner

Tanner, Thank you very much for sharing me your knowledge about guns. I will
take your advice and try to fire several pistols before finally deciding
which to buy. Although most of my buddies owns and recommends your favorite
glock19. Thanks again and happy weekend.
