I have been wanting to purchase another 9mm handgun (my other is the M&P9 shield)
Years ago I owned a Glock 30 but traded because the grip was just too chunky, but I've always liked Glocks
I went to my local firearms dealer and after looking at other 9mm handguns, I bought the last G19 gen4 they had and I am very happy so far!
The 19 will be mostly a home defense and range gun but I am also going to carry some as my CCW. I also added the Streamlight TRL-4 which I am also very happy with.
It feels good to be a Glock owner again, it's been a long time coming!!
I plan to add fiber optic or tritium sights and maybe an extended slide stop lever. As far as the trigger pull, I'm happy with it stock.
Love my Gen4 19. put xs big dots night sights on as soon as i got it. Just got my barrel TiN coated and added a viridian CTL light. Great choice for your purchase
Take your light off when you go to the range. It will get muzzle blast all over it. That said, congrats on your purchase. With some good 9mm bad guy stoppers, it will do the trick. Nice set up.
Congrats on the new G19. I bought a Gen 3 G19 yesterday because it feels the same as my G30s. I went with the G30s after trying the G30 & G36 at my LGS's range. The grip is smaller (it's a G30SF frame) and the slide, being a G36 slide, is not too bulky, weight isn't a problem for me, and it conceals well.
I would use a Streamlight TLR-4. I've used one for four years on my camp/outdoors G31, where the TLR-4 comes up even to the barrel muzzle. On a G19, the TLR-4 will protrude one-half inch in front of the muzzle, which is a small amount compared to most of the monster lights that some think are necessary...like a TLR-1 or -2...on a handgun.

good choice, on gun and light. Have the same red dot and light combo.
Its the night stand queen, but i also went to G17 mags for 2 more rounds
and got the spacer to smooth out the extension
The 19 was my first Glock purchase...but not my last. I've now got five of the little black demons and I'm sure there will be at least one more... sometime.
The 19 gen4 was also my first. And Still my favorite to shoot. But I got a 26 last week and as far as every day on my side I like the 26 but if I could only grab one and use it then the 19 would be my go to pistol. Enjoy it and keep it fed a good diet often and it will be a very happy Glock.
