I've owned 3 Glocks 17, 22, and 35. I'll never own another one. The 17 jammed about every third round. The 22 mis-fired with light strikes about every third round. The 35 worked great, but the narrow trigger guard loop and knuckle grinder bump aren't friendly to large hands. I've always been somewhat repelled by alloy frames, and I'm convinced that I'm Polymer intolerant

I often go shoot with an Ex-Police Officer and NRA Certified instructor. He said that while he was working at the Oregon Firearms Academy instructing Police Officers from various agencies, that 9 times out of 10 if they had a jam, or an AD / ND it would usually be a Glock. He said that the least problems encountered were with Sigs. He carries an older Sig 220 exclusively in the winter. And carries a S&W 640 in the summer. These have always been my favorite carry guns also. I carry a S&W 649, as well as an Interarms PPK , Kahr K-40 , Sig 220 .45 depending on the circumstances.
