    Is Glock the Colt 1911 of the 1980s & earlier?

    Sure, Federal Government contracts, but what about State and Local Government contracts. While Glock would probably still sell a bunch of guns, but if you took away all of their LE contracts, that would be a big drop in the bucket.

    Is Glock the Colt 1911 of the 1980s & earlier?

    I'm not a Glock guy, but what would be those more modern and desirable features? A rail, MOS? Glock offers those. Their sights are usually lousy, but they are so easily replaced (especially compared to most other guns), and they have more after market sight options than just about anybody...

    Condition 1 or Condition 2

    Like others have mentioned, I'd get an ambidextrous safety. However, if I don't have that, and you can't do Condition 1 as a lefty, I'd recommend Condition 3 over Condition 2. Assuming from your screen name that you are really a revolver guy who has picked up an auto and really doesn't like to...

    Are Sights Really Necessary on a Concealed Carry Pistol?

    I like to have sights. Here is an American Handgunner article by Tom Givens, "When Citizens Fight Back" https://americanhandgunner.com/tactics-training-2/when-citizens-fight-back/

    If you could have only one pistol?

    If I could only have one, it would probably be a Glock G17. Since I don't have that limitation, I don't own a G17.

    IWB Holster for Glock 39

    JM Custom Kydex shows the Gen 5 G27 on his list. https://www.jmcustomkydex.com/ He's a pretty sharp guy and should be able to give you good input on whether a Gen 5 G27 holster will work for your G39.

    IWB Holster for Glock 39

    Simply Rugged shows "all models of Glock's" https://www.simplyrugged.com/gun-list/ However, many of my "usual suspects" seem to list just about all models of Glock's except the .45 GAP models. I'd probably still call Simply Rugged to make sure.

    IWB Holster for Glock 39

    My guess is a Gen 5 G27 is probably a closer fit for a G39 than a G29 or G30. The G39 is the same frame as the G26/G27, and with the Gen 5 .40 S&W guns, they get a slide similar in dimension to the .45 GAP guns.

    Yeah, you don't need the adapter, but it really improves the experience with single stack mags. https://www.brownells.com/gear/range-gear/speedloaders-accessories/1911a1-aligner-insert/

    anyone carry this way??

    I don't, but companies offer holsters specifically designed for that mode of carry. For instance, Mitch Rosen https://mitchrosen.com/products/holsters/between-waistband-belt-holsters/

    Ed Brown or Nighthawk

    While I would personally not choose the FX guns in the Ed Brown line-up, I don't think they are bad guns, it's just that they don't look like what I think a 1911 should look like. For me, the standard Brown's are what I think a 1911 should be. On the other hand, there are a lot of complaints...

    Musings on Holsters for CCW

    I do like kydex and have quite a few kydex holsters and mag pouches, and they are very durable. On the whole, I probably prefer kydex. However, leather is less likely to suffer the "catastrophic" failure that can affect kydex. Snapping a belt loop, or holster/pouch body, or a screw coming off...

    Musings on Holsters for CCW

    Crossbreed SuperSlide https://www.crossbreedholsters.com/product/superslide-owb-holster/ I generally prefer OWB. As the years have gone on, I've become less of a fan of sweat shields. If the holster does have a sweat shield, I prefer that it extends no farther than the back of the slide...
