I'm eyeing a couple upgrades but haven't made the jump yet. Also, what ammo do you shoot? I am currently using the white box Winchesters from Wal-Mart but I found some for cheaper. At Academy sporting goods you can get 1000 rounds of CCI Blazer for about $75. Not bad..

What do you all have?

Later.

At first glance that looked like "I'm eyeing a couple hand grenades"... I was like "sh*t this guy isn't fscking around..."

Glock 19 here. I don't go to the range as much as I should. I used to go to these tactical drill classes that were pretty cool.

One day I would like to try to shoot glocks although I would perfer to purchase USP .40 instead. I like the feel of it better.

well I'm using a Standard Arms SA-9 (2.5 inch barrel) very small cc gun but it's just to small for my grip .. thinking of selling it and all 9mm gear (holster mags reloading press ...) and going to .44.

I'm issued a Glock 22. I'm looking to get a 23 or maybe a 27 for backup/summer off-duty carry.

Yeah, go ahead and shoot the cheap CCI Blazer Aluminum. No reason to get the brass unless you reload. It doesn't shoot that dirty -- in fact it shoots cleaner to me than Winchester White Box.

I've had a Glock 17 for about 4 years. My favorite cheapish range ammo is Fiocchi, which seems to be loaded a bit hot, but mostly I just shoot Wal-Mart Winchester 100-packs.

I have a Glock 17 that I've had for about 13 years. I also have 4 genuine Glock 17 round mags (two came with the gun when I purchased it and I bought the other two right after they announced the Clinton high capacity ban).

I shoot whatever is onsale. It's not particular to one brand of ammo. It takes anything I feed it.

You every shoot IDPA or IPSC? I know there are a bunch or other types. Any upgrades? I was looking at Glocks 26 for CCW but then it would only be in my car, not on my person.

How the hell are they going to know if you shoot reloads through it?

I can count the number of times I've had my 13 year old Glock serviced on no hands. :laugh:

and all this time, you still haven't learned the difference between a magazine and a clip!!!

Glock 22, was my duty weapon for YEARS. Bought it in...93 or 94 I think. Had to sell it to keep it away from my wife when she went insane. I'll buy another when I get the spare change though. I tend to load federal hydras now, though I used to swear by gold dot. I alternate between 155 and 165...so far haven't noticed enough of a difference to make me stick with one or the other.
