Deciding on a striker 9

Recommended Posts

I am going to put in a vote for the Glock 19, Gen 4. I purchased mine about 4 years ago, & it is probably my favorite handgun that I own. I like the Glock night sights & the double recoil spring of the Gen 4 guns, so I will often use some Gold Dot 124 grain JHP's at the range. If I could carry in this "wonderful" state, it would most likely be my ideal concealed carry pistol. I have looked at the H&K VP 9 many times in my local gun store, but I have not bought it, as I also really like the H&K P30 9mm, but that is a DA/SA hammer fired pistol. I have not looked at the P 320 because I am a very big fan of the classic P series, such as my 226 9mm (West German) gun.  Hopefully you will decide which one that you really like the best, & be very happy with which ever one you do decide to buy.

I own all of them. They are all excellent choices. In order of what i like best: VP9, Walther PPQ,Sig 320, G19. Even though the G19 is last, it is still an excellent handgun and shoots great. It is really a question of what feels best to you as they are all great shooters. There are variations in the sights they come with. Shoot them all and then decide

Apparently my buddy's Pd is switching to the 320

This shouldn't persuade you one way or another. You'll be happy with the VP9, and again, your welcome.

From glock

But that didn't make a difference. I just get really good pricing on sigs. I shot an email for the price and liked what I got back

Shawn if you want to base your decision on what police use (and you shouldn't as Ray clearly pointed out) over 60% of the police in the US carry Glocks. About 25,000 or 70% of NYPD carry Glocks.

 

I don't think Glock is worried about losing sales because your friend's department is switching to SIG. I'm sure the FBI buying Glocks offsets this.

 

Smaller agencies adopt guns for all sorts of reasons. The Smyrna, GA PD, where Glock USA is located, used S&Ws. Why? S&W gave them all the guns they wanted so they could claim the cops in the town where Glocks are made use S&W. I knew of one agency that wanted full auto MP5s bit settled for 3 rd burst because they got a war better price piggybacking on Secret Service's contract.

    • I very seriously doubt this has anything to do with terrorism.    1) Harbor pilots are VERY seriously vetted, and highly trained. Not to mention extremely well paid. My experience knowing a few of them, and knowing how they are recruited and screened tells me that there is a slim to highly unlikely chance that a harbor pilot would have participated in anything like that.    2) Maintenance of foreign flag ships is well known to be dubious. Especially these days. These were NOT US flag, Jones act sailors. It was (to my understanding) a largely Indian crew on that ship, with a Ukrainian Captain. Indian crews are not exactly known for being stellar.    3) The bunkers (fuel) these ships use is ‘Bunker C’, which is a heavy, dirty fuel oil that can, and usually is, pretty contaminated. This stuff ain’t your car grade gasoline or diesel fuel. It’s nasty.   It requires nearly constant filter changes and maintenance to the engine/generators. The ship took on fuel prior to departing port, which would stir up all kinds of shit in the fuel tanks, which would contribute to particulates in the fuel lines/filters.    4) I’d say the posting of the chief engineer for Maserek above was pretty spot on as far as chain of events.    This was a shitty accident, with horrible timing and outcome. Not a terror attack. 
    • I saw Lara's interview on Bannon's War Room, and that gave me pause for thought. Her conjecture depends primarily on the veracity of her sources. Regardless, if it's not applicable in any way to this ship disaster, the methods described seem valid to me. And worthy of consideration for the future. As I said before, IMO something is coming.
