    Grip reduced Glocks are the bomb compared to the "ergonomics" initially employed.

    A G19 that has the hump removed and flattened to a proper 11º angle is an excellent pointing and fairly well shooting gun. All it needs after that is to not have a mushy trigger; And group better than 4" at 25y; And not have crappy plastic sights; And after that it's basically just a plastic, safety-less, 1911...

    I brought my G45s during my first time with Mr. White. The stock sights were fine and I managed a Dark Pin.

    While I'm back the Beretta buddies again, occasionally I'll still bring a G45 since most new shooters are using Glocks and it helps when volunteering with classes. I've been thinking that I can't be the only one who would buy a metal version of the stock black-and-white sights.

    Not very bright but does lack ambition
    I used to love the Glock sight picture until my eyes aged. I actually looked for those for a few years in the pre internet days.

    I've never had a problem with the plastic factory sights. I've helped a bunch of dudes find their aftermarket sights, alternatively from downrange and the parking lot.

    Gaston doesn't care what I want in a handgun and in turn, I don't care why he's cussing under his breath. But the plastic adjustable (for windage) sights was a good move. The "points" gained from such meant Glock didn't have to resort to other "features" to ensure the first G17 was importable to the US, such as a magazine disconnect.
