ok..1st sup guys...ive been wanting a sub compact Glock for quite a while..so i went out to where i buy all my glocks...and they had a few G26s...

One was pretty beat up @ $419...one was a way overpriced OD at @ $499...and one that looked brand new @ $429...so i asked to see that one...the clerk tells me it was the display from the new store they were about to open across the street but that opening got delayed...

So i look it over...its like brand new...no marks on the barrel, lots of copper lube inside the slide etc...i look it up really quickly on the phone on the glock serial thread here..PNM serial prefix, manufactured april 2010! for $429! Had to grab it...
Anyway, i put 200 rds thru it the next day at the range, just regular federal walmart range fodder..flawless of course..

I always thought some were off their rocker saying they shot the sub compact glocks more accurately than the larger framed pistols...well im now in agreement...amazin accuracy out of the small pistol...just need a decent IWB leather holster and ill be carrying it in place of my 19...thx for reading guys...heres some standard glock pix.






BTW...the name of the store i get my glocks from is Adventure Outdoors in Smyrna, GA...its relatively close to Glock Inc...and they always absolutely have the best deals.

Oh yeah...the 26 has the flat black looking finish on the slide like my Gen 2 G19...so awesome, im really glad they went back to that instead of the patent leather Gen 3 look

Hunng, I can carry pretty much any pistol I want that's available in North America and I almost always carry the G26. I stayed away from them for many years "cuz they looked and felt funny" but once I shot one I was convinced. You now have one of the top CCW pistols in the world - glad you enjoy it! :-D

Today is the one year Anniversary of my first handgun purchase! a RTF2 G17, it was love at first shot. In July of this year, I used my retirement gifts to get a Gen3 G26, and became a believer!! I love to shoot the 17 but i'll be darned if I don't shoot the 26 better! You got a good deal on a Great firearm!

Gotta love used Glocks. My favorite pawnshop usually gets a few nice ones in. The last one I got was in the box with the lock, fired cases, and 2 mags. 301 and change out the door.

I plan on making it a carry gun since my other is a devoted GSSF gun.

I got my first in 1988 G17 the only one they made. Then in 1990 a G19. Then in 1999 a G26 wow. The 26 would out shoot the 17 and 19 all day long. Then not sure why (maybe I know why) I got another G26 in 2009 and that would out shoot the older 26 17 19. Maybe the newer Glock are just made better. The G26 are small and can use 10, 15,17, 33 roung mags I was in love after the first Mag.

I always said the g19 was the best all around Glock.

That all changed a few years ago when I found out the G26 was easier to conceal and that I was able to shoot it faster and more accurate than my 19, 17, and my 34.

The G26 is by far the best all around Glock for me.

I have a 19 20 23 and 26. the 26is sweet but I love them all equally as much. different guns for different purposes. I must admit I was surprised on well the 26 shot 20 years ago when I bought it. even the 20 shoots great and what a round.
