As a patrol officer I carried the G22 and loved it. They almost had to pry it out of my hands when I had to transition to the G23 after making detective. However it was not long before I preferred the G23. It conceals as well as the G27 but shoots as well as the G22 or even the G35. I was soon beating the SWAT guys with their G35's.

After winning or placing in several competitions this has become my favorite Glock. It is everything that is needed in a handgun: reliable, comfortable, reliable, accurate, reliable and affordable. Other guns on the market will not shoot better, be more accurate or more reliable; they're just more expensive.

Compact size but comfortable to hold and shoot. The tactical light rail is invaluable when needed. Holsters are plentiful with a good price range. Affordability that underscores the value.
