The G26 is simply awesome and its reliabilty is unmatched! It's an outstanding carry pistol.
Well, I feel the 26 would serve extremely well in the role of a deep concealment gun (i.e .38's role IYHO) or for standard concealed carry/self defense.Originally posted by ULVER
OK---This is the deal! I have a pair of Glock 17's going back to 1986. They are like my kids. I shoot them the best. With modern Ranger T's/Gold Dots, I have faith in their ability to stop aggression.

I gotta say that the extension kind of defeats the purpose of the G26 as a sub-compact. If you feel better with the extension, you should just get a G19 and have 15 round mags at your disposal. The +2 extension is going to give you the length of a G19 frame practically, which is contrary to the intent of the 26 design which is ultimate concealability. Use the extensions at the range to augment your practice but also plan to do a lot of one-handed shooting in its natural configuration would be my advice. Hard to go wrong with a Glock, especially their 9mm's, in my opinion, the flagship of their product line.Originally posted by ULVER
I appreciate the opinions. I want to say, I did NOT like the dangling pinky thing. Completely sucked to me. The minute I was shown one with the entension, everything changed 100%. Felt better than a Smith M-60, and strangely enough, better than the 23. My grip feels perfect on a 17 with Hougue Hand-alls. With the 23 they feel cramped. The 26 with the extension feels sweet again. Go figure!
