I picked up a police return Glock 21 at Cabelas using a generous gift card given to me at Christmas, very pleased with it.

Awesome, I love my Glock 21 and have found it to be a very accurate pistol. I can usually pull off 4-5" groups at 25 yards standing. Nice video!

Thanks for watching, it is a Gen 3.

I'm kind of leery of Gen 4 models at this point given all the negativity about Gen 4.

I do however have a Gen 4 model 26 and have put about 1000 rounds through it, without a problem.

Very nice. Shoot the heck out of it and have fun.

Funny, I just picked up a new G21SF a few weeks ago. Like you, I went with the Gen3. It shot well and I was surprised how accurate it was. I have typically been a 1911 guy when it comes to 45 ACP but thought I would try something different. The 21 is a BIG pistol...

I am happy with mine although its not my fav, those are 1911's.

Love my 1911s too, but love me my Glocks too.

I'm not a 1911 snob.

I really like my gen 3 G21, I shoot it well and it fits my hands well. I also love my 1911's but there is just something awesome about the G21. It doesn't hurt having 13 rounds on tap either. :)

I absolutely love my 21SF. Now you should buy a G30 or G30SF. you'll find it shoots even better than the full size G21. Make sure you stock up on mags.

I have been running G21s since they first came out. The first one I owned is now serving as a carry gun for my dad who lives in the mountains of central Idaho.

Every one I have owned has been a high volume gun. Currently have a G21and G21SF. The G21 I have had since the Gen 3s came out, and it has been a stellar performer.

ptmccain,

I think the more you shoot your new G21, the more you are going to like it. They are soft shooting and accurate suckers.

I had a G21 OD and sold it, wish I never did. I will get another one again one day. Very accurate gun.
Congrats.

I want to get a g21 sf. I have small hands and would love to have this model. I've picked them up and they feel great in the hand. Congrats on the new pistol!

The G21SF is a favorite at several youth and ladies' events I am a part of. Very agreeable in the hand, and in recoil. An IBO new to the 45ACP is also liking it very much.

My Gen 3 G21SF is probably the softest shooting .45 I have ever owned, and one of the most accurate I have used (outside of my 1911s).

I recently dropped in one of the Wilson Combat barrels so I can shoot my lead reloads without reserve (needed or not).

IMHO, the 21 or 21SF and the G19 are two of the must haves for Glock.

How much did the new wilson barrel improve your accuracy? I have been thinking about getting one for my Gen 3 G21 as well.

I have not had a chance to really wring the new barrel out to compare accuracy with the factory barrel. In the few hundred rounds I have ran through it, I will say that it is at least as accurate as the stock set up, which I felt was very accurate to begin with.
