Recently did some Spring cleaning and my Glock 19 and 26 have came and went but my 6904 and '98 4513 (short grip) remained in the rotation.
Don't get me wrong, I enjoy the Glock's weight, capacity, and shootability. It was my 1st true carry gun in '06 after my Kimber refused to run. I've shot many IDPA matches with it, used it as a loaner gun and demo gun in my CCW classes.
The Glock's grip, however, never really fit me and always forced my shots a touch high while the S&W, with a slight bobtail treatment and a flat mag base pad, fits me like a glove. The 3rd Gen S&W's DA trigger, trigger reset, and SA pull are simply perfect for me and the effects on target reflect it. Additionally, I find the S&W's recoil to be softer than the compact Glocks.
For a gun I paid $350 OTD for, it has served me well and only required $10 in springs to make it 100% again.
Regards,
Lucky
