Want to try Glock G26

Featured Replies

Anyone have a Glock 26 they would be willing to let me try? I'll buy the ammo we use (obviously) and give you a box for your troubles.

 

I'm a member at Bob's and Telco and will be at Quinton tomorrow for the IDPA shoot. Anyone close to these ranges let me know if you'd be willing to accommodate my request. You can shoot my G17, G34 or my wifes tricked out Mark III if you wish.

 

 

I have a G26 you could try but I'm as far north as you can get.

 

But do yourself a favor and shoot a G19 as well. Depending on your build

they conceal almost as well and 15 rounds of GLOCK Goodness,

I just holstered a 19 and 26 at Bobs in my supertuck. 26 was much less noticeable ,I'm 6' 2" and 180lbs and not real broad in the shoulders so my shirts hang right against the holster and gun. I need all the help I can get but I'm hesitant to buy a gun without trying it. I'm walking around with 17 now and everyone can see if I ask them to look for it.

There is a reason the G19 is so popular.

 

IMHO, the 26 isn't a bad buy either. Get the grip adapter and you basically have a G19.

If you have a 17 you already know how the 26 shoots.

 

The only difference is where you put your pinky.

I have a 26 and a 19 both gen4. Unfortunately im up north.

 

The 26 will definitely conceal better.

 

The 26 in an outstanding shooting and handling gun. Don't get scared off by a 2 finger grip. I am more accurate and faster with my 26 than my 19. Maybe it's the short slide cycle, maybe its the sight radius for me, maybe it's the way it fits my hand, im not sure, but it is just awesome. The 26 is also just plain fun to shoot. I bought my 19 first, then the 26, if it was the other way, i probably wouldn't have bought the 19. I have about 10 pistols currently and the 26 is the one that I always want to shoot first.

Thanks for the feedback.

My SIL has a 26 for off duty carry and I have shot it four or five times. It's a really accurate, GREAT shooting gun. I can't imagine you would be disappointed even if you just run out and buy one. If I didn't have a couple of 9mm I'd get one.

Ditto..26 shoots great and conceals better...love mine..g19 was basically made for LE who didnt want the large g17

Unless you're looking to stay with the 9mm load, the model 23 in .40 is a great shooter and a very concealable weapon. Sorry, but I'm at the other end of the state, otherwise I'd let you try it out.

have u considered a G27? I have a gen4 if u wanna shoot it, but im in north NJ too.

I have a buddy with a g27 and were going to give that a shot when he can find the time. I really want to stay with the 9mm platform for simplicity. Figure if I can shoot the 27 comfortably the 26 will be a no brainer.......I assume.

They're nearly exactly the same thing...the 27 is probably a little snappier, so if you can handle IT, you'll like the 26.

Estimate I only have 4 more months to wait for my permits! Carried the G17 pretty easily this weekend so the 26 will be a godsend....wife didn't notice until she hugged me a couple hours into the trip.

If you have a 17 you already know how the 26 shoots.

Lol ok?!?
