    A few months ago I traded for a G23. I had it for about a week and decided that I wanted a G27. I sold the 23 and bought a 27. Had the 27 for about a month and loved it. I cant get over how well it concealed and how you could not even feel it when you were wearing it. I wanted another 23 but didn't have the money to buy another one. I finally talked myself into trading the 27 for another 23. Now I miss my 27. There's no winning here. My question, has anyone else had this dilemma? If so, what was the final outcome? I need a 24, 35 and a 27 to complete my 40cal Glock collection. If anyone has any of these that they want to give me I would appreciate it.:D

    I love my 27 and even though I'd like to get a bunch more GLOCK's, I couldn't see myself parting with this one to get another.
    I'll just have to wait until I actually have spending money to do so, although I don't see that happening anytime soon. :xmad:

    I have a 23 (Carry Gun), a 27, and two 20's, but no money for new shoes. I gotta work on my priorities in 2009! Keep searching, there's always another deal around the corner.

    I've done almost the same thing. Had a 27 and 23. Sold them. Found a good deal on a 27 and bought it. Now I'm missing the 23 again. I wish I would have remembered that I really liked how the 23 handled and I don't like how the 27 fits in my hand. Live and learn I guess.

    I have a 35, (2) 23s and a 27. Don't see the need for a 22 or 24 other than just to complete the family, and I've got a lot of other purchases to make before I start buying things "just because".

    I like the size of the 27 for carry (I carried a 26 for a long time, but retired it in 2005 when my son was born), but don't shoot it all that well just yet. It's a recent acquisition and I haven't had a lot of trigger time with it, so I expect that may change with time and practice. It's never going to be my favorite Glock or even my favorite .40 Glock, though.

    I have a 22 and a 19. I think the 23 is a better choice than my 22. However, I don't think I'd ever go down to the 27. Just too short of a grip for me and not much more concealable than the 23. If I'm going that small, I'll use my Kel-Tec P11.

    Lasers..

    you think you love your glock now get a crimson trace laser for it. it will be the ****!!!!

    I have owned a number of different style lasers, CT being one of them. The CT I had was for my G22, it didn't work with any of my holster that had a thumb break. More improtant than the holster problem was that it made me shoot bad. I would spend my money on other things. https://www.indianagunowners.com/fo...mmunition/15606-crimson_trace_lasergrips.html
