s\Strange grip angle, unconfortable finger grooves. Yes, I really hate those finger grooves. Doesn't point naturally. Strange trigger. Models above 9mm caliber too light for the round they shoot. Looks ugly. Ill stick with SIG.

It's easy to understand why Glocks are popular. It's way harder to understand how anyone could think they're the best out there.

There simple and dont cost much, which makes them popular for new shooters. The price point makes them popular amongst the procurement people at police departments dealing with budget issues. I like .45 acp, and the solid feel of metal. A 23 once hunk of palstic is not the best platform.

It's worth noting how many firearms fail because of price point, though they are otherwise effective and stuff.

I can't think of any examples.... crap.

It depends on what you mean by "fail". I think the H&K P7 is a good, neat pistol even if it flew over everyone's heads years ago. That being said, you can pretty much name almost every discontinued or uncommon H&K pistol or rifle a "failure" by those requirements even though some people still like and want HK91s and such.

Anyway, we answered the guys question, now let's try to stay on topic (or any half decent topic for that matter) rather than bash Glocks.
