I have a G19 (Compact 9mm) and a G22 (Fullsize .40). If you smash them together you get a G21 so it's kind of like owning one.

In all seriousness Glock is hands down my favorite handgun on the market and I love both of mine. I sincerely doubt you will be disappointed with a G21.

+1 Sorry I can't help about the 21, but I have nothing but praise for the 30

I have a 21C. It is the softest shooting pistol I own, much less snappy than the 9mm's. I took Mom out shooting (she's a septuagenarian) and she shot a 19, 17, 26, 228, Kahr P9 and the 21C. She liked the 21 the best.
I have yet to find a way to carry mine concealed so it is a range/house gun only for now. It does have a light on it so it works well as a bedside pistol.
Great gun.

If you can't afford SIG or HK, Glock's a very respectable 3rd place finish.

What would you be using the G21 for??? It is thick and not very good for CCW, but if you just wanted a range pistol or a HD pistol...sure the G21 would fit the bill.

Have you considered the XD45? It is not as thick as the G21 and you get the benefits of a double stack mag.

For the guy that said if you cannot afford a Sig or HK get the Glock...you can buy an HK for $550 with NS...or a Sig for that matter...you just have to keep your eyes open.

I would be using it for the range, home defence, and winter cc. Normally I carry a G23, with NS for concealed carry (especially with light clothing.) . I just like the .45 ACp. I have a springfeild 14 rounder which weighs way to much for concealment. I've handled and shot the XD .45 and did not care for it. I've also owned an HK and Sig....way over priced too. Although my favorite is the S&W 4506 ...wish I had one this gun shoots like the mercedes of .45's.IMO

They don't empress me..had'em, shot'em, sold'em! There ok weapons but when I was in Iraq I confiscated a Glock 17 from an insurgent ( I was an MP) and concealed it for when the poopy hit the fan. It was 100 times more accurate and dependable than the M9 Beretta I was forced to carry as my sidearm. IMO ( In war anything like an extra firearm was the smart thing to do ) To each as own I guess.

I've never owned a Glock to sell, because I didn't like them as much as the other guns I test fired them against. Oh, and my wife thinks Glock look girlie, so there was no way I could bring one home and still feel like a real man. Pathetic. I know.
