Alright, I like the Glock, but the polygonal barrel and non-fully supported barrel scares me away because I want to use reloads.
Jackyl:
The "non-fully supported" barrel is almost a myth.
If you do a side-by-side with several of the leading autos, you will see a similar amount of cartridge exposed.
I think Tamara posted pics somewhere?
This is not a problem in the 9mm at any rate.
You could add an aftermarket barrel to shoot lead, but most of my buds have quit reloading lead, and started shooting Winchester "white box" or Wolf ammo.
They tell me it is cheaper to shoot those brands than the expense+time involved in reloading your own.
And a Glock will handle Wolf ammo, no problem.
My advice, for what it's worth;
Try all three, and get the one that
you really want.
I believe any of these three will outlast you, and probably be more accurate than you.
Don't go on others' advice.
Shoot all three, if you can.
I used to think Glocks were ugly.
After reading continually about how rugged and reliable they were, I picked one up. Fit me like a glove.
I've had at least one Glock for several years now.
A Glock is the right gun for me.
Oh, and remember, the hunt is part of the fun.
