I'm sure that with a lot of practice I could break myself of the habits I've formed over the years, but then I woudn't be able to shoot any other type of gun. 
3) I've heard of the frames wearing out and fracturing under heavy use. Although kind of a minor point for most people (I do mean heavy use) it kind of sticks in my craw a bit.
PS If I could hit the broadside of a barn with the Glock, my opinion might be very different...

That is very interesting. Before we debate this any further I must say you are right on one thing. If a Glock isn't for you, it isn't for you. Just like any other gun.
As far as the trigger goes, that was one feature I HATED until I actually tried it. I totally forgot about it, it was barely even noticable. I don't really see how it adds safety, I guess it helps if you want to holster it with a round chambered.
Accuracy was okay, but wasn't great. However, I have only tried a Glock 19 and the barrel is pretty short on those. I shoot a lot better with it than my Beretta 92S which I cannot aim for SH*T with.
I will defend Glocks until I die, yet I don't even own one yet lol. All I can say is they function VERY well under harsh conditions, the rifleing is made for easy cleaning and for minimal build up of lead or carbon? not to mention they are very simple and easy to use. plus they have hi-cap mags for all your zombie huntin needs!
Quick question, what do you guys like best for tactical shooting? Favorite moderm semi-auto handgun? cause you are obviously not Glock men.
