I purchased a Glock 20 gen5 a few months ago and I like it. So I was contemplating about buying another Glock for carry/range fun. I like the gen 5 models because; they have an ambidextrous slide release, a reversible magazine release, and don't have the finger groves like the gen4 models.

I have a micro compact 9mm.
I currently don't have a 40s&w.
I will probably buy a gen5 Glock 29 when they are available.

If you vote for a different Glock, please comment which one in a post
 
Based on what you currently have, the straight forward choice is a G19. Particularly for a non-reloader such as yourself. You already have a subcompact 9mm, and a full sized 10mm, the G19 sits well between them and in a cartridge you already own but with a higher capacity and longer barrel for more velocity.

But the gen 5 G23 would fit nicely too. And at some point you may be able to buy a .357SIG conversion barrel, and enjoy that cartridge too. Though I do quite like the .40S&W in 155gr and 165gr loadings. It's thoroughly capable.

I voted Different Glock. A Glock in 45 Auto like a 21SF would be nice. But I'm not sure they make a G21 Gen 5 threaded barrel. I can find Gen 3 ones but not Gen 5. I have a 1911 so I'm a bit biased but suppressed 45 is supposed to be a blast (or lack thereof). We should be getting a SilencerCo Hybrid 46M soon to test out.

I think the G21 gen5 would be a little hard to conceal/carry. I like 45acp and have a XDM compact in the cartridge.
 
@WisBorn, thanks for starting another Glock love-fest thread. Um, wait...but...

We get comments like this:

The G19 is the best all around 9mm on the market and has been for some time.
Of course it is! The internet has spoken!

Well, thanks for the clarification. Sorry, no disrespect intended.

I do have a couple favorite Glocks myself, the 19X and the 43X.

took care of the obligatory 43X pic.

But my next Glock? Will probably be another SIG P-series or a 1911...Celebrate diversity!

FYI my comment is based on carrying a Glock 19 for about 30 years not internet comments. It is far from the only handgun I've owned or shot.

Your comment about no disrespect intended is more than overwhelmed by insult.

Your suggestions are just your opinion.

I took the comment as being sarcastic.
It looks like the G19 is leading the poll as I post this.
