One thing i do notice about some glock owners is how they are so proud of how cheap the weapon is and are willing to make sacrifices such as fit and comfort etc.. simply because of price. Im not saying the more expensive the gun the better it will perform, that is not it at all. At least for me when it comes to a SD piece it needs to feel as if its an extension of me. And yeah that will prolly cost more and if i ever have to use it the odds of me getting it back from the police is slim, but as long as it worked and i am safe and unharmed it was money well spent imo. But to each their own.
