Glocks…Imperfection

Yeah, but…at their heart, it’s pretty much the same pistol.

Don’t get me wrong; I strongly believe the Glock 21 is the best .45acp, striker fired, polymer pistol extant; the Walther PPQ .45 comes close, but the lack of aftermarket options for the Walther gives the G21 the edge.

But if I was going into a fight, and was given the option?

I’d take a USP45 or a HK45 over the G21 any day.

Roger👍 Thanks to all you guys for the insight! As stubborn and opinionated as I am about ballistics and rifle shooting. I'm still definitely learning a lot on this forum. Thanks again guys! Shoot fun, shoot safe and shoot straight!

Isn't the Glock supposedly known for its reliability when dirty, wet, mud, sand and ect?

The 1911 was known for reliability in the trench mud of France, to the muck jungles if Central America, to the jungles of Guadalcanal, to the sands of North Africa, to the beaches, hills, and mountains of Italy & Sardinia, to a whole crapload of islands in the South Pacific, to the Aleutian Islands in the Arctic, to the beaches of Normandy (France again? Deja vu), to the fields of Holland, forests of Belgium, across the Rhine River into the heart of Deutschland, Deutschland Über Alles…then in the sands of Iwo Jima, the mud of Okinawa….

Back to Korea—Mud, dust, freezing mud, snow, repeat…

Good morning Vietnam! The 1911 is still going strong in rice paddies, jungles, beaches & tunnels…

Back to the middle east in Beirut, where a Marine and his 1911 told Israeli tanks to get F’d…

Grenada? Beaches, sand, BTDT, NBD.

Panama? Been here before.

Iraq & Kuwait? Whatever.

Balkans? Europe, again? Don’t these guys ever learn?

Iraq? Afghanistan? The 1911 GOT. IT. DONE.

So when the Glock had a pedigree like this…get back to me.

I'm familiar with the history. An epic and historic auto loading pistol platform indeed!!!

The reason I ask is because it's has taken about 600 rounds for my Kimber 1911 in 10mm to break in. Now it seems to function flawlessly. Though I haven't put any significant amount rounds through it lately to confirm that it is fully broke in. My Rock Island Armory 1911 in 9mm has performed flawlessly since round number one.

Yeah, but when you try and say “but the Glock is supposedly known for its reliability…”…

The 1911 has PROVEN reliability, for over 100 years…111, to be exact…and is STILL in use by some very pointy end operators.

No other fighting pistol can hold a candle to that.
