Im john from Florida. Originally from NYC but just moved here about 4 months ago. I moved here due to all the messed up laws in NYC and had enough. In addition my wife and I always wanted to move the kids to a nicer greenery place.
Anyways, its been a very long time since I had a Glock. Lets see I had one in 1999. It was a glock 17 gen 1 and it was a go away gift from my older brother before he went away in service. I was only about 18-19 years old and yes it was not register on my name especially living in NYC he left it in his till I was able to transfer in mines but since all the political nonsense in NYC it never did make it in my name ;(
Im here to get help decide on my first glock since then. Im not sure to get the G19 or G17 in gen4 or gen5. So hopefully I can get the guidance i need.
Well Im like 10 minutes away from Port Malabar Rifle & Pistol Club in palm bay. I join them first thing when i got here. I also go to frogbones when the weather is bad outside since they have a nice indoor range and you can eat and drink after shooting since they have a nice restaurant inside as well. My wife loves going there, i say thats about the only way she goes shooting with me lol to eat and have a couple of drinks afterwards. Lol.
Ohh yea and what really sucks for me is that I dont know anyone out here there really that I can go shooting with every week. It sucks going to the range especially to malabar rifle club where they have all sorts of shooting targets and drills.

Have had Gen3's, up until recent purchase of, Gen4 G19FS. Took me 7 years to get a Gen4, but I have to say, to me it is "Glock Perfection". Haven't checked out the Gen5's yet, it might take me another 7 years to do that, lol! Between G17 & G19, that comes down to, personal preference, and your intended use. Either one though, is a fine choice!
Thank you. Yea i dont know what it was but i always told myself when I saw Glock in stores " Ill buy you soon, I can wait" but finally doing it in the morning.
Thanks man. I didnt have to do much convincing due to the fact that nyc weather, not many parks, fked up seasons, politics, laws, and the right to protect yourself and your love ones, which in NYC NYC dont believe in it. There favorite say is leave it to the cops! Not this guy nope. Never did never will!
Anyways, I believe there is always a way to convince the family especially if there is a job paying more than your state is paying lol
