    The solution to that is Audi / Porsche. The Audi/Porsche and Subaru AWD systems are the shit.

    This is one reason I still have my Glocks.

    The other reason is if Biden and Vlad do trade nukes there will be two things left: Cockroaches and Glocks.

    I can pee outside.
    I have owned an XD9 since 2003 that has about 5k rounds thru, and runs flawlessly.

    Yes, an xd.
    Yes, not a glock.
    Yes, I just admitted that I have an XD that runs without issues.

    All this glock talk made me think of this.


    Hope it doesn't get me kilt in da streets.

    I'm always coming back. My life has drastically changed in the last couple of years. Went from two kids to four (two step kids) and all of them are nearing hobby and sports ages. It means my hobbies have taken the back seat and I just need easy to work on and supply. Glock and ARs check those boxs

    Well, I would keep one thing in mind. SIG is now #2 behind Glock and the aftermarket is growing. Then add in the fact that it’s a modular pistol, and it might make more sense for your logistics situation.

    If you get a Glock 19 or 26 you’re stuck with that Glock 19 or 26. If you wanna try changing something in the grip and it doesn’t work out you either gotta sell it and get another gun or pay Glock 150 bucks for frame replacement.

    With the 320 you can simply by 12 or 15 round magazines and the corresponding grip module. Basically, you can scale up and down as needed. The thumb safety could have some advantages and your situation. Wilson now has an X compact size (15 round / G19 size) grip.

    Are you still running the P365 series guns as your primary carry? If so, it makes more sense to match the full-size house/range gun to your primary carry guns.

    I have to agree if this is the case - maybe a unported XL with a Macro grip module as a big pistol, and a standard as a small one. I’ve actually considered this myself.

    And USPs.


    From time to time, my mind wanders into an imagined scenario where I'm the central character in a Planet of the Apes situation. I manage to somehow find an actual gun, and realize it's my own USP .45 serendipitously come back around.

    Probably taking my appreciation of the 297,###-round story a little too far.

    But still, someone once posted on this forum that he bought a USP 9 FS that had been used as a manufacturer's ammo test gun. I'm thinking the number of documented rounds when he got it was something like 480k+. And he had taken it across the line past half a million.

    Off the top of my head, the Glock that is in their museum after being used as an ammo test gun had a frame crack at 348k or something like that.

    I have a few USPs. I haven't been tempted to get another Glock since I sold the one I had.
