Okay...
Step one of getting into shooting handguns: Get a Ruger MKIII. Check.
I'm now in the process of choosing a second handgun and have narrowed it down to the Glock 17 vs. 19. (Don't try to talk me out of it: I've decided based on cost, reliability, availability of parts, fit etc. etc.)
My questions are these:
The 17 feels just slightly better in my hand because of the larger grip. The grip on the 19 makes it feel ever so slightly uncomfortable. (this difference is almost negligible) Should I forget about the 19 because of this?
The 19 is a tiny bit smaller than the 17. Is it really that much more concealable? I don't get why that would be. The 17 only has about an inch on the 19 barrel and about another inch longer grip. Does this really make a difference in concealing?
Which one would you choose? (Your personal preference...doesn't need to have a logical explanation)
OH, PLEASE, do not say to get both. That's not possible right now. =)
