I carry a Glock 19 on duty and a Glock 26 as my backup/off-duty pistol. Though I sometimes also carry my Glock 19 when off-duty. It's interesting to note that the OP lists Australia as his/her home. So this is really a moot question for the OP. Unless he/she is planning on moving to the U.S. and becoming a U.S. citizen.

The Glock really is an everyman gun. It's simple, easy to take down and shoot, no external safeties to worry about. Point and shoot.

He/She also listed hobbies as making homemade weapons...make sense since that country won't allow you to have REAL weapons

I refer to the Glock, and not necessarily derisively so, as the lowest common denominator of service automatics.

And that's not really an insult

It's not intended to be. It's like the Ford Crown Vic of duty guns.

It's really heavy, old, and needs to be replaced but everyone just loves it?
