The Glock Fanboys at TFB get their hands on the new Gen 5

[Gman]

Side note: Standing in line at CGC, I find myself between alienated and homicidal. Who gives a shit how it feels in your hand; it's a gun, not your dick. No matter the platform, you need to run serious rounds through to know what the hell you're doing. Shoot 10k rounds through any gun, and you'll get decent. Key is to find a gun that will take 10k without being half clapped-out by that point.

I've found that most quality guns will easily run 10k rounds through them. If the gun doesn't fit my hand to where the pistol moves when the trigger breaks, I won't be able to shoot it well from round 1 thru 10k. There are certain makes and models that don't end up on my short list for that reason. For example, the XDs and S&W Shield are too narrow and don't anchor well in my strong hand. The classic Walther PPS does.

I have a Gen 3 G19, and the slide rubs the web of my thumb. I found the Walther PPQ doesn't, is pretty much the same size as the G19, and has a great trigger. The only Glock that I've found works for me is the oddball G36. Not all anatomy comes out of a single template and platform does matter.

I road tested a 43 yesterday, wondering of the single stack, sub compact profile wouldn't work. 50 rds later oddly enough i'm sold on it. While the Shield between fit and upgrading to an Apex trigger does not.

Absolutely love the 43.
