My Glock 32 came in. I picked it up the other night, and now I just need to get to the range for a test session before I transition to it as a carry gun. (I still need to do a range test with my new Walther PPK/S 22lr that I picked up a few weeks ago, but between work and weather, I haven't had a chance.) I'll make a trip sometime this week and if all is well with the Glock, then I'll go shopping for a concealable holster (I like the Crossbreed SuperTuck), and a spare mag pouch. I'll be relieved to put my .45 back in the safe; it's irreplaceable..... I'd rather have a -$500 Glock get beat all to shit in daily carry.

Good
It scares me just to say the word "Glock".

Congrats on the new acquisition. Remember, every time a free person buys a gun, a liberal cries! :D

That thing was on back order for over 2 months.... I was starting to think I was never going to get it. I need to do a 200 round minimum reliability test before I'll feel comfortable carrying it. And the only hollowpoints I can find are the Remington Golden Saber; I prefer the Gold Dots, but I can't find any around here.
 
Ok, did a short range session with the Walther 22lr and the Glock 32 with the wife this morning, and while further testing is in order, my preliminary assessment of the Glock 32 is...... "Oh HELLS YEAH!!!!" :D Flawless function, accurate as hell, and less than $450 out the door..... I'm very happy right now. Now it's time to shop for holsters and mag pouches.
As to the Walther, the wife is in love with it (except for the shitty DA trigger pull), but there was a single FTE with Winchester hollowpoints. The CCI Stingers functioned perfectly, and the wife is very happy with it, and loves how accurate she is with it. A hit with a 22lr is better than a miss with a 357 mag, (of course a hit with a 357 is better than 4 hits with a 22.... :cool:) so it's better than nothing for self-defense, but still, it's just a fun gun mainly. One of the reasons I bought it was to have a small, non-threatening pistol to start newbies out on and after this morning, I'm confident that this is a good choice for that.

Was this your first Glock? If so, welcome to the fold! I've been carrying my G23 for 10+ years. They are fantastic guns and never a safe queen among them. They are tools that want to be rode hard and put away wet. Enjoy it...

Yeah, this is my first one, but the gun club I used to shoot IDPA at in TN was owned and operated by a bunch of hard-core Glock-o-philes, so I'd had ample time observing how they performed. Now I need to get my accessories in order (holster, mag pouch, etc.) and then I need to find a good defensive shooting course around here, so I can take the whole rig out and put it through it's paces.
