Glock H8r!

I'm one of those Glock haters. 

Well hate is a strong word.  I don't take to them.  When I started shooting and tried a plethora of firearms the model I shot the worst was the Glocks.

Everyone blames the grip angle.  Maybe that's it.  I dunno.  All I know is it made a target that didn't look too good in the first place, look worse.

Well, I've improved a bit, in shooting skill.  I still don't shoot the Glock well, but I shoot it better than before.  But there are other problems with the Glock.  The slide release is in the wrong place.  Unlike the 1911 where it is right there, perfect for a left trigger puller.  Sure, you can clamshell the Glock, but I like to have an option.

I noticed this because another buddy got a Glock 19 recently and it was used and it had a slightly different looking slide release that drew my attention. 

That's not the only pistol that has given me fits with it's OS.  The Sig250 was setup weird, too.  And unfriendly to lefties. 

Yup, the only thing wrong for lefties with a 1911 is the safety and the fact that slide release has a rounded end that sits proud on the right hand slab side of the receiver.  The slide release is otherwise perfect for the index finger, and mag release perfect for the social finger.  For us.
