I'm a relative newbie when it comes to Glocks. That said, I'm not convinced that the G19 is any more prone to limp-wrist-induced failures than any other polymer semiauto. The G19 is one of many current-production pistols that are suitable for CC.
This inevitably comes up in almost every Glock thread. I have to ask, if you have a holster that covers the trigger, how is it dangerous? The only way a Glock can fire is if something depresses the safety on the trigger and then exerts about 6 pounds to pull the trigger. A revolver is very similar; it requires more weight to pull the trigger, but it doesn't have a trigger-face safety that helps to avoid snags.stubbicatt said:to carry a round up the spout in a G19 in AIWB is dangerous

The one factor that pushed me to this decision more than others is that to carry a round up the spout in a G19 in AIWB is dangerous, at least to my way of seeing it. I do not have the same trepidation with a double action revolver.
I'll agree. I tried and never could get my 19 gen4 to malfunction with a weak hold. I shot offhand, and with various strength grips, and at different angles at the family range just to put the thing through it's paces in "what if" scenarios. It didn't have any issues firing, not one.There's really no concern about limp-wristing. In my experience, there are only two ways to limp-wrist a Glock 19: 1) If the shooter is weak and has no idea how to hold a handgun, or 2) If you're trying to limp-wrist it.
And number 2 is pretty hard to do. In post #10 I described how difficult it was for me to limp-wrist my Glock 19.
My G19 does drop/eject brass strangely at times - including shooting it at my forehead. What did Glock do to fix that? I might just buy a replacement part if that will help it. It's not frequent enough to annoy me, but it happens.had my 2 g19c g3's.had the gun dropping spent brass on my forehead and trigger finger on both models creating a blister on finger.returned both 19's a 26 to glock for repair.requested they also replace the serated tringgers with the g17 round triggers,which they did at no charge. only probs with my glocks.
