I need some advice. I love Glocks (and other guns too), and own a Glock 19 (my favorite gun and primary carry) and a Glock 26. I have always been partial to 9mm and .45 auto; I carry 9mm and have a .45 as my HD gun. Recently, I saved up enough cash to buy a Glock 17 Gen 4. I love the Glock 17, and I like the Gen 4 model because of the grip and the extended mag release.
Recently though, I have been hearing people have issues with the 9mm Gen 4. I was wondering if anyone had advice on if I should buy a Glock 22 Gen 4 or a Glock 17 Gen 4? I do not want to buy a Glock 17 Gen 3 because inevitably, I would trade it in or buy a Gen 4 down the road. On the other hand, I have never gotten into or even fired a .40 caliber gun. I don't have a range nearby to go rent one either. My gun dealer is going to pick up my gun next week. 9mm or .40? Also, this will double as a HD gun and carry gun when I am wearing a suit. I am still leaning to what I know, the 9mm. Is the Gen 4 Glock 17 full of problems or is just a few people that I shouldn't worry too much about? I have already read the thread with the Glock 19 Gen 4 malfunctions. Any suggestions and thoughts would be helpful. Thank you.
