Anyone own a subcompact Glock?  Which one and why? Thinking about getting one just because but don't know which one to get. I think I watch too much Hickok45 on YouTube. LOL  :worship:

I have one.

"Which one and why?"

I have a Glock 27.

Why?

Because I like the size to power ratio.

It shoots just as accurate as the mid sized Glock 23 and the full size Glock 22.

Nice little gun.

The only problem is that your pinky feels left out unless you have a magazine extension for it to hold on to.

glock 26
it was on consignment and i wanted something eaiser to conceal than my glock 19.

ended up trading my glock 19 because i shoot the 26 better and i enjoy shooting it.  you get used to not using your pinky or use the extensions or use your other glock pistol 9mm magazines.  it still is a fat gun but  for me, all glocks are big in my hand.
fondled the M&P shield at OGC when they just came out, that gun felt sweet, nice and thin.  couldnt get myself to trade the glock for the m&p and the next time i went to ogc, thier stock of shields were all gone.  cant get one in the near future so i took  it as a sign....

its a great gun and really enjoyable to shoot.

Glock 30sf because it fits my hands ok, holds 10+1 of .45acp and is probably has the lightest recoil of any .45 I've ever shot.

I picked up a Glock 26 at the recent gun show.

Excellent shooter, 9mm is my preferred around.  The gun came with 4 magazines that had the Pearce pinky extensions added on (no extra rounds).  I find it has a comparable grip length to my G19.  I like the fact that I can also use my G19 mags in my G26.

I find the G26 a very fun shooter, but in my mind nothing will replace the feel of my 19.

27 even though it's only 9+1, what Keoni said

Decisions, decisions...

Get the 26 to round out your 9mm Glock collection (full size, compact, subcompact)

Or get the 27 so you can have two 9mm's and two 40's.

Buy them both.  They're not THAT expensive. (I know, I'm not that much help)

Glock 27 because it accepts the G22 & G23 mags.  I also have a Sub2k that takes G22 mags.  Primary mag in the G27 is the stubby one and spare mags are G22's.

The 36 looks cool I wouldn't mind picking one up in the future. I Was looking at it before I picked up the 30 but the mag capacity made me choose the 30.

Another vote for the Glock 27.

I didnt like Glocks before I bought the 27, but now have to admit its one of my favorites.

I picked up a Gen 4 Glock 19 sub compact - it shoots like shit.  I need to go to the range and put a bunch  of rounds down range where I know I am holding perfectly steady to figure out wtf. It was all over the place when I was shooting last weekend.

I love the glock, so I don't know wtf is up with the one I just bought.
