Description: The two most popular Glock 9mm pistols are definitely the 17 and the 19, but which between the Glock 17 vs Glock 19 should you get? You can read a more in-depth discussion here: aliengearholsters.com/blog/glock-17-vs-glock-19 Both are great working guns. There are few pistols that are the same class of absolute workhorse gun in 9mm, which is why both are heavily preferred in the law enforcement community. The armed civilian may find themselves wondering if there's one that may be better than the other. It's more that you'll find one Glock 9mm is better for what you and what you want it for than the other. The Glock 17 is high in the running for the best service pistol you could buy in terms of reliability and value for money. However, at almost 6 inches tall and almost 8 inches long, it's rather large for a daily concealed carry gun. At 17+1 of onboard capacity, it's a great choice in fighting pistol or competition gun...but the size of the Glock 17 is such that many find it isn't the easiest carry pistol to deal with if concealment is a priority. The Glock 19, however, is a bit more compact and is easily concealed and carried. In fact, it's one of the most popular concealed carry guns on the market today, despite having been on the market for 30 years. It's also light, at less than 25 oz unloaded, which makes it very easy to tote. A number of shooters also find the slightly shorter trigger reach of the Glock 19 more to their liking. People have been calling the Glock 19 the "Goldilocks Gun" for decades. It isn't too big to easily carry, but it isn't too small to shoot really well or have reduced carrying capacity. It's just right. It's likewise been proven in competition, on the street and in military and police service. Both pistols are eminently customizable, with aftermarket support in terms of available parts and upgrades being second only to 1911 pistols. There's almost nothing that you can't add or upgrade with either gun. And Glock has a number of factory iterations as well; besides the base models, you can add night sights or the MOS editions which have a milled slide for use with a red dot optic. Either way, you get a great gun. Of course, a great gun should go in a great holster.
