Personally I don't know what all the hype is about Glocks nowadays. I've owned a Glock. I owned a Glock 19. I personally prefer my good ole Beretta I use to carry one while in the military (an M9) and just liked it ever since. Nowadays I carry the Beretta 96 because of the stopping power of the .40 S&W over the 9mm. But I still like the 9mm, to me if double tap (which I always do while practicing, since I was trained to do it in the military) theres a pretty good chance any aggressor would go down. But here are my personal thoughts on the negatives to each weapon. Please note that these are my personal negatives.
Glock - My biggest problem with the Glock was that it wasn't comfortable to me to hold. I don't know why but it just didn't feel right. Another thing about it was because it weighed so little it wasn't really balanced for me. It maybe because I'm use to the weight of the Beretta but IDK. Some could say that it was because it was a compact, but Ive held majority of Glocks and it still felt the same. For me because of the off balanced feeling of it most of my groups where extremely poor, and I'm not that bad of a shooter. The last thing I didn't like but it's probably the brainwashing of the military is that it has no safety. Now I do believe that Glocks are pretty safe but it's just a peace of mind thing to me knowing that it's not on safe. Forgot this so this is the last thing I really didn't like the feeling of the plastic of the lower part consisting of the pistol grip. It just didn't sit well with me IDK why.
Beretta - The negatives that I've heard of for the beretta was the fact that it is a pretty big gun. For me since I don't have a concealed license it's not a big deal. The Beretta isn't made to be concealed it was designed as a duty weapon (military and Law enforcement). It's one reason I open carry it. It's big and it means business. The second thing I heard about was the fact that the safety is way to high. Personally I don't have a problem with it. Maybe I just have big hands or something. The third thing was that when the pistol is in DA mode that the trigger resistance was to hard to majority of people. I look at it is if your in that kind of situation where you need to use it you'll be pulling as hard as you can so it wouldn't matter how hard it was. Another note in contrast to the Glock and I've heard this and I can attest to this is that the Beretta is extremely well fitting to your hand. Every single time I hold it or draw it just fits so correctly into my hand.
These are just my views. It my be biased though. But all in all both weapons are in my point of view extremely well made and reliable guns. They both fire true in my opinion. The Beretta the gun for me.
I conclude that its each persons preference and what they feel best with.
Just wanted to see anyones opinion and what they prefer.
