which glock for first purchase ?

Posted by Madclown356@reddit | Firearms | View on Reddit | 5 comments

Hello I’m be shopping academy sports for a Glock . This would be my second one after my first Glock 19 gen 4 . I was wondering out of these options which you suggest. These are the options :

Glock 48 mos (9mm): 499.99

Possibly a glock 43x mos

Or if I should go for that bigger pay and get the glock 19 gen 5 for about 649

But I would list the v models but there new and I don’t have much info on them

I would always recommend the 48 over the 43x.

It's nearly identical to your 19, just not as wide, which begs the question of why are you looking to get one. Sidegrade to a more comfortable grip?

I would recommend getting the largest handgun that fits the comfort level you want. 19s will be better from a shooting perspective, while the 43x/48 are slightly mote comfortable to conceal. Ive carried a 19 for years and it’s been fine for me, hell some dudes carry 17s. It’s gonna come down to personal preference.

This one is truly a personal choice. Ideally you could at least hold them all and maybe shoot them to find out.

The 48 is the same length as the 19 and should be shipping with 15 round mags soon (now?). So it’s just if you want a slimline or not. 43X is gonna be the same grip as the 48 but the shorter slide length. 43X and 48 have the same mags but the 15 rounders aren’t going to be compatible with your current 19.

So really, it’s up to you

Don’t get a V. Gen 6 is now out.
