Is it true for Glock 17 and 19 Gen 4's have some flaws? I've heard one problem with ejection of shells hitting people in the face. Are there any other issues and have they been corrected?

Hey guys, its all good, theres alot of good & bad pistols out there, and there are many flavors to choose from. I`ve got good&bad glock`s and i`ve got good&bad m&p`s. Everybody has different opinions on what they think is better... it dosent really matter. As long as you`re happy with what you have, thats what counts.

Sure did Doc, not much activity in here, so i thought i`d stir the pot a little...lol

Noooo, i dont hate glocks, as i do own a few glock 9`s an 45`s. BUT, glock slides rust, M&P`s do not. M&P slides and barrels are stainless, glocks are not. And i`ve had to do a lot of work on glocks too, as they aren`t perfect either. And the finish on the glocks today are terrible.

If you havent checked out the new S&W M&P M2.0, it blows the glocks right out of the water. The M2.0 triggers are leaps an bounds better than any factory glock today, and the accuracy is spot on. The price`s for the M&P are cheaper than a glock as well.

As for those saying M&P triggers are an issue... not at all. People that own glocks have changed triggers just as much as any M&P trigger, especially on the Gen4 glocks, those are horrible triggers, i dont know what glock was thinking there.
I would beg to differ on an M&P not rusting. My mother had 2 M&P 9c's and one of them acquired small rust spots on it.

Hickok likes accurate firearms. He doesn’t like inaccurate firearms. Bump stocks make the firearms grossly inaccurate, and lead to a lot of unintentional discharges, even in the hands of “experienced” users.

Hickok thinks they are stupid. So do I. The only time I’ve seen one at a range I left. Stupid people scare me.
