Love Screwball's P-80 shown above.
That is a sleek looking pistol.

Here is my main complaint about Glocks which are of course very reliable guns EXCEPT all of the ones I've come across, with the exception of .357 sig, are very bad with what they call "limp wristing". I think that is a very important and underemphasized thing because who knows what sort of grip u will be able to get on yr gun in an emergency or a struggle, likely not a nice weaver stance range grip!
Honestly, I think that's item 58 or 59 on the list of things I worry about.
Back when i was teaching, the “limp wrist” issue was just starting to be talked about. So, we took a Glock 19 and TRIED to get it to fail due to a weak/loose grip.
You had to have a seriously loose grip to induce stoppages. I suppose, if you were holding the gun in an already injured single-handed grip its possible this might be a problem.
Otherwise i think “limp wristing” is more of a problem on the internet then on the streets
He rolls his eyes.
OK, so what are the 57 or 58 things that u think r more important?
We also carried the G19 after switching over from Colt revolvers.I've been carrying the Glock 19 (Gen 3 and Gen 4) as my duty sidearm since 2006. I wasn't crazy about having to give up my SIG P220, but orders are orders. The G19 won me over. I quickly learned what millions learned before me. It's a reliable and user friendly pistol. A few months ago my agency issued me a Glock 45 and sold to me my duty Glock 19. I like the Glock 45 as much, if not a little more, than the G19. I'm not part of the Glock Mafia, but it's a good design. Other companies have come out with their own designs that improved on some of the Glock's design weaknesses and Glock has had to play catch-up. That is the way of things, but I'm content with Gaston's product.
Glock 45 sounds like it should be a .45. It's so similar to the 19 they could have called it the 19A or 19P for police. Next time they make a new model they should ask me what to call it.
