The Glock 19 fills a niche between the full sized duty guns and the subcompacts that are out there. As with all things, it is a compromise, but it offers better handling & shootability (for me at least) when compared to the subcompacts while being easier to conceal than a full size.
I previously had a G19. It was a great gun, but I wasn't a huge fan of the ergonomics. I ended up trading it for something else, but now I find myself wanting something to fill that niche. It is quite possible that I may end up with another Glock, but my question is this:
What other compacts are out there that I should consider that are similar in dimension to the G19?
Using the G19 as a baseline, my requirements would be this:
- No wider than the G19
- No longer than the G19
- Grip frame / handle can't be more than 1/2" longer (preferrably not a subcompact w/ mag extension )
Suggestions?
