Help me choose a new CCW pistol!

[Spiffums]

Glock 19 all day every day even in your sleep.

Get a bunch of mags.

Get a crate of ammo.

And shoot that sucker till your hands pucker

Agree but in a Gen 3 unless the finger grooves just kill you.

They really do.

I find a trigger guard undercut helps a fair bit with comfort and shootability. At least I did. Find a 17/22 to be fine stock, 19/23, not so much. Of course I also fall into the freak of nature that most guns in stock config fit me like a glove, must have been a gunfighter or designer in a past life or something. Which drives more than a few people nuts. But neither here nor there.

Haha, I love the finger grooves! I could live without them, but I REALLy like them. Only experience is with the 19/23.

HK P2000 LEM "light" with "extended" magazine release

[Potss]

The full sized P2000? Isn't that a little on the large side?

Of all the guns on your list, I would choose Glock 19 and with whatever generations that fit or choice in preference you like. Here are my reasons:

1. It can still be concealable in the warm weather,
2. 15 + 1 in chamber, rounds,
3. Availability of parts, OEM and after-market (if that suits you),
4. Reliable and durable,
5. Can be detailed (not referring to field strip) stripped with ease and simplicity with 1 punch pin. Trust me when I say simple and easy.

Good luck in whatever you ultimately decide to choose.
















6. Competitive price, even better price through Blue Label.
7. I have not yet seen any rust or corrosion on my G19 Gen 2 and 3 which was used for on and off-duty for many years.

Since you prefer DA/SA, my choices would narrow to:
PX4
229
P30

The Sig only edges out the HK for me due to comforting familiarity. The HK is a great gun, but I carried a Sig for a few years, and the armorer had to pry it out of my hands with a hoolie tool when I got a G19.

The PX4 shoots amazingly soft, and I am buying a "fullsize" within the next 90 days. It is my new favorite for g19-ish sized guns. I'm currently switching my collection to safetyless DA/SA guns from strikers and SAO's to streamline the manual of arms with the guns I use or carry most.

I plan on getting a G or F model and putting in a D spring and bobbed hammer with low profile controls, then adding night sights.
