Thinking about getting something a little smaller than the SIG P220 that I usually carry. Quite a few choices and I have been thinking about a Glock 26. Obviously smaller than my SIG and I could use another 9mm. Any comments?
I figure by the time you put the finger grip mag on it you could carry a G19...
Nope,the barrel is shorter and less likely to poke it's head out from under your cover garment when carrying OWB,which I do.
I had a 27 and a 19. After carrying the smaller 27, I never could get used to carrying the 19 so I sold it. Regret it now, though, since it was the Austrian proof type. Now I have a 26 and I prefer the factory mags with no extensions.
Sold my G26 and regretted about it.
Solid advice. Back in the 80's I used to own a S&W M49. If I had to hit someone with it, it would be by throwing it.
But for what it is worth ... on the list is a Ruger LCR and S&W 340MP with the thought that with enough practice I wouldn't have to rely on a throwing my arm out. While the Glock is about 6oz heavier, it is slightly smaller than the five shot wheel guns.
Futher down the list is a the SIG P238, Taurus TCP and Diamondback 380.
G 26 is a very reliable and accurate gun. It is a good CCW. Can't go wrong with it.
