So even though technically it's a great gun, you don't like the feel of them. Sounds familiar. :)


There's so many guns I don't "like".....I can't imagine obsessing over any of them.

Same here.

What annoys me most is the fanboyism that some people have about XYZ, whether it's an OS, a certain car, gun, whatever it is. As for Glocks themselves, I don't like them so I don't buy them. Problem solved.

Your opinion is noted and filed under "wrong".

"wrong" in your opinion, and I'm ok with that. It's your opinion. You're entitled to it. I've filed your opinion under "doesn't matter to me what you think". If you're ok with that, cool. If not, cool too. Either way works for me.

My opinions are facts. Your opinions are wrong.

This isn't rocket science. It's a pretty simple concept.

What's the deal with the man speaking "his truth" anyways? Did you just mis-type that, or are you a believer in truth being subjective to everyone's opinion in order to be true? Is it more silly post-modernism again? Thread title should either read:

The man speaks THE truth

or,

The man speaks his OPINION

The man bases his entire life and what he believes are facts off the internet, he doesn't know any better and has no real world knowledge to base anything off. Example....the dreaded bullet set-back issue. At times his post's can be entertaining though. It's like when Joe Biden talks, you just never know stupid his next sentence might be, so you keep listening to hear him embarrass himself.......again......and again........and again.

FWIW. I'm not a Glock fan either, but I did own one long enough to form my own opinion of them. They are still a fine pistol though.

XDM45 supposedly doesn't like Glocks, I wonder how many times he has mentioned them in his posts? Strange.

Never been a Glock fan. Dislike the way they feel and I don't like the trigger. I like my Beretta for the opposite reasons I dislike the Glock. My opinion are my own facts. :)

Ah yes, the Heffay logic...."I have a car that is the best car I ever owned...so I sold it." Wow, the logic there just floors me. So you sold your ideal car to buy what?......another car less than ideal? No wonder you get into so many flame wars here. :)
