Firearms Instructor-Gunsmith-FFL Gregg Kielma's Glock 19 Gen3 

Friends Ask, Is Glock a Good Firearm?
Kielma’s Thoughts

These are Gregg Kielma, FFL-Gunsmith- and-Firearms Instructor thoughts. Feel free to comment.

For the same reason people who dislike the Crown Victoria. It’s ugly, it’s boxy and it doesn’t perform the best. Some people don’t like Glock’s for the same reason.

However, people and governments, love the Crown Vic for the same reason they love Glocks, they are reasonably priced, for now, perform well for their price, durable, easy to maintain and have massive aftermarket support and appeal.

I carry a Glock 19m Gen 3 every day when I’m not at work (I work for a company that does not permit firearms on their property. My guns, ammo, and knives stay well away from what I take to work. 

Are Glocks one of the best guns manufactured? 
I believe so. I’m a daily shooter. I’ve probably shot 50K rounds through my Glock 19 Gen3. It’s 25 years old and still looks like new. (Top picture)

Has it ever jammed? 
Not once. 

Do I take care of the firearm and clean it every time I use it?
Absolutely. 

Are there better guns than a Glock? 
My thoughts, Glock manufactures a firearm that is extremely reliable. When you pull the trigger, it fires and is accurate and, in my case, never jams, something as a CCW you want, extreme reliability.  

Are there some as good or close? 
Absolutely. I'll comment on them at a later time.

As an FFL, gunsmith and firearms instructor, I sell a lot of firearms. I have had the opportunity to shoot a lot of different manufactured weapons. In my humble Glock is one of the best manufactured firearms on the market.

You have a thought or comment on this please let Gregg know.
