Glock 26 or 36
« on: February 11, 2006, 07:33:04 AM »
I am about to buy my first Glock.  I have been a 19 11 man for over 40 years but after shooting my CCW instructor's 26 I was pretty impressed and the size is a real plus for CCW carry.

26 pros:  
Ammunition cheaper and more available.
More accessories.
Less recoil (although I have a AMT 45 Backup that the recoil isn't that bad on)
More ammunition capacity
Cons:
Little bulkier and harder to conceal
Ammunition isn't as powerful

36 Pros:
Slimmer, easier to conceal
Ammunition is a better stopper
Cons:
More recoil
less options as far as holsters and magazine pouches.  I have found very few holsters listed for the 36 in various catalogs.
Ammunition more expensive.

What do you think?
