    I would encourage you to try before you buy if you can. I love everything about Glocks but like many I can't shoot them worth a crap. They are not for everyone.

    Sound advice, I'm the opposite and shoot Glocks better than anything else. I'm also with Ray on the Glock 19.

Gen 3 or 4 is really a matter of personal preference. I like the frame texture on the gen 4 but the other features don't really appeal to me personally.
    I second this.

    And this. I shoot Glocks better than any other handgun, but lots of people don't. Find what works for you. If you're in Colorado Springs any time soon, give me a holler and we can make a quick trip to the range with my Glock 19.

    Totally agree with this one. I have serious difficulty shooting a standard Glock. A lot of shooting ranges have them for rent.

    These guys make limiters to restrict mag capacity.

    Kinda expensive though.
