My personal feeling on the Glocks is that, for a fight stopping sidearm, they have no rival in function and durability. That and NOBODY else make a compact 10mm, which is, IMHO, the Holy Grail in fight stopping.
My absolute favorite gun to shoot is a Browning Hi-Power............ ala the 1911 with all the things John Moses figured needed fixing. I LOVE my Hi-Power !!!!!!
