I really liked the way the 19x felt in the hand and the trigger was better than the 19 & 17 gen5's that I had. I just couldn't get past the color. I'm just not into FDE that much. My 509 Tactical is FDE, but if they offered black or grey, I would have bought one of those instead. My big thing lately, for a gun I'm going to carry, is that I don't want to modify the gun if I don't have to (sights being an exception).The Glock haters are dedicated...to...something...
I like that Glock is trying to listen to their market and make the improvements people want to see. Every iteration has been an improvement from the last, in my opinion.
