![]() ![]() ![]() In my 26 years of service, I have never had misfires, stoppages, or breakdowns. 40’s since my academy days and have grown to deem GLOCK as “THE WEAPON” of choice. I’ve been in Law Enforcement for 26 years. However, I am totally astounded by your article on the 5 worst GLOCK weapons. The Marjorie Taylor Greene Disaster Has Arrivedįirst let me say your article on the worst firearms and then the 5 worst GLOCKS was excellent and eye opening. Chris has been an NRA Certified Basic Pistol Instructor since 2011. Customs & Border Protection (CBP), Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE), and the Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC) Criminal Investigator Training Program (CITP) multiple medals and trophies via the Glock Sport Shooting Foundation (GSSF) and the Nevada Police & Fires Games (NPAF). ![]() His marksmanship accomplishments include: the Air Force Small Arms Ribbon w/one device (for M16A2 rifle and M9 pistol) Pistol Expert Ratings from U.S. ![]() He has 34 years of shooting experience, starting at the tender age of 14. Orr is a Senior Defense Editor for 19FortyFive. The ultracondensed explanation of the problem was, to cite Mas Ayoob again, “In essence, GLOCK’s own. 45 GAP cartridge seemed like a really greater concept, i.e.45 ACP-sized bullet & ballistics in a 9mm-sized cartridge case & gun, and I was particularly fond of my G38, using it for a little while as my home defense, CCW, and competition gun alike.Īnd a buddy of mine who owned a G37 was quite fond of his as well. 45 GAP Trio (Glock 37/Glock 38/Glock 39)Īctually, I’m not labeling this trio “the worst” in terms of range & field performance, but rather in terms of failed marketing execution, i.e., failure to really catch on with the general gun-buying public and law enforcement alike. 45 Win Mag to be downright exhilarating! So there!Īnd don’t forget what I just said a few paragraphs earlier about Glock “kabooms” in 10mm and. 40 cal and carry ‘em over to the even higher-pressure 10mm Auto cartridge!Īnd lest any of y’all start assuming I’m some recoil-shy wimp, au contraire! I can handle the recoil of a full-sized 10mm, such as the Colt Delta Elite and S&W M1006 just fine, thanks.Īnd I find shooting big Magnums like the Smith Model 29 and Ruger Redhawk in. Okay, yeah, sure, let’s just go ahead and take those same undesirable characteristics from the G27. Meh, more power to ‘em as Burt Reynolds (portrayed by Norm Macdonald) said to Alex Trebek (played by my fellow USC alum Will Ferrell) on SNL Celebrity Jeopardy, “Yeah, well, that’s your opinion.” (May Burt, Norm, and Alex all R.I.P., by the way.) Mind you, some of my shooting buddies actually like their G27s. Accurate and reliable, yes, but absolutely miserable to shoot, as it beat up my firing hand pinky and made me unintentionally bleed myself at the same time. If y’all have been reading my recent articles, you shouldn’t be the least bit surprised with my inclusion of this one either. In my own hands-on experience with the gun, I only experienced one malfunction in 49 rounds fired – using the Aguila Prime Super Extra High-Velocity 40-grain copper-plated bullet – and got good accuracy results with it, but since I’ve been so spoiled with ZERO malfunctions from centrefire caliber Glocks…yeah, I’d be skittish about buying a G44.Īahh yes, the “baby Glock” (subcompact). This one is probably the least surprising selection, as I’ve seen and heard more complaints about reliability issues with G44 than any other product offering from that company, including from some of my own 19FortyFive colleagues. ![]()
