favorite gen of glock

[zhigdon91]

just curious to see what everyones favorite gen glocks is. personally i have a gen 2.5 glock 30 and a gen 4 glock 27. i have shot a gen 3 glock 19 as well but i would have to say my favorite is the gen 2.5. im not big on rail mounts on a pistol so the no rail doesnt affect me.

(sorry if this has been posted already)

All of my Glocks are gen3. I don't believe the gen4 has enough advantage for me to replace all of my Glocks. That being said if I was to buy a new Glock I would most likely buy a gen4.

3rd gen is my preferred, the gen 4 was a fix to a problem that didn't exist.

G23 Gen 3 the best I've ever seen!

Gen 3. I actually like the finger grooves.

2, 3, & 4...........I'll add 1 to the list when I can find a nice Gen1 17

if I had to choose only one, it would be the Gen3 RTF2


Need to update this pic with the Gen3 RTF23 in it.

So besides the finger grooves and the rails how does one know what generation their Glock is?

My favorite is Gen 3. But that's only because that's the only Gen I have ever shot

Thanks turns out mine is a gen 2 and since it is the only one I have I'd have to say it is my favorite gen.

I prefer Gen 3. The figer grooves and rail are nice. I would have said Gen 4, but I don't like the whole guide rod fiasco. If they'd have just stayed with cosmetic/ergonomic improvements the gen 4 would have been just fine.

With that being said if I found the right deal on any earlier glock model I'd probably buy it.

For the most part I would agree but ambidextrous magazine release is nice for left handed shooters although they are in the minority and most left handed shooters have learned to adapt from necessity.

Gen 4 definitely, finally found a Gen4 G19 blue label a couple of days ago.

Love my Gen 4. But then again, I'm a lefty.

My Gen 2 17 is one gun I will never part with.

 

[zhigdon91]

my gen 2.5 is basically a gen 3 without the rail which i like just my prefence but other than that it has the finger grooves and everything else the gen 3 has.

I like them all really! But after shooting a bunch of them I really like the Gen4 to be honest. My hands are pretty big and the Gen4 with no backstrap feels nice.

I was referring to the guide rod "upgrade". I should have been more clear. I do like the larger mag release and the fact that is Ambi is a nice touch though it does nothing for me. I do not like how the back straps are held in place and I am not a fan of the new frame texture.

Gen4 for sure. I for one like the new recoil spring. Gives the g22 a little less snap( personal opinion, cause it varies person to person) they say it also improves life but I have yet to fully test it.. It is ambi friendly as far as the mag release and it also has a larger mag release button. The texture is the best yet in my opinion and it also has the finger grooves. Its all the gens rolled into one superior glock. I know that might tick a few folks off but once again my opinion.
