  1. My recommendation would be to purchase a one year membership in the Glock Sport Shooting Foundation for $35. Click Here When your membership card arrives, go to a GSSF supporting gun shop in your area and buy the Glock of your choice that includes 3 factory magazines instead of the standard 2, all for a nicely discounted price. I picked up a Gen 3 Glock 19 that including 3 magazines for $425 last month. All GSSF Glocks come with 3 magazines standard. Practice with it enough and you'll be able to out-shoot just about anybody. If you don't like it, you'll still be able to sell it for what you've got into it. My guess is that you'll have it for a very long time.
  2. Many years ago I sold my first handguns looking for greener pastures that are rarely ever found. As the years go by, so many things in life change and I have always regretted selling those first couple handguns. Having something that you can say you bought new and still have decades later is worth more than you realize at the time. I suggest you re-examine why you bought the Glock in the first place. If it not meeting the expectations you had for it when you purchased it then by all means sell it. But if it performs to as advertised then I would counsel keeping your first handgun. My oldest Son is in the military and he likes Glocks. In fact while visiting him where he's stationed earlier this year, we were at a local range doing some shooting. A couple of retired Marines were there practicing with their tricked out 1911's that included laser site aids. They were shooting at 7 yards and getting good groups. Eventually they came over to my son and I to talk guns and compare groups. They showed off the small groups they had been getting with their pistols at 7 yards, examined my Son's Glock then asked how it shot. My son hit the switch to retrieve his target and they were amazed to see that his groups equaled theirs. The only difference was my son was shooting at 25 yards, not 7 yards and his Glock is completely stock. With lots of practice and proper shooting technique, your Glock will do the same. I'd keep it.
  3. I've looked at the reviews of UltraMax on Cabelas web site. They won't be getting my money. Oh the other hand, I've read nothing but good reviews on Mastercast reloaded bullets. I haven't personally tried them, but I plan on doing so in the near future. You send them your brass, they send you reloaded ammunition. No, you won't get your exact brass reloaded and sent back to you, but by sending them brass they are able to keep the price low. Check them out - Click Here
  4. You bet! If you join GSSF, you're automatically an affiliate member of the Civilian Marksmanship Program! You're ready to stop in their store in Ohio and check out what's available, get the CMP Catalog, or bid on rifles on their auction site. Click Here and Click Here
  5. If you're going to buy a Glock, why not join the Glock Sport Shooting Foundation? Membership allows you to purchase one Glock pistol at a discounted price each year. The discount varies by dealer, but ranges from around $75 to $100. Plus, if you get your Glock from a law enforcement supplier, it will come with 3 magazines at no additional charge. Also, membership in GSSF is affiliated with the Civilian Marksmanship Program, so if you think you might be interested in an M1 someday, you're already set to order with your GSSF membership. Initial cost for an annual membership is $35, with annual renewals at $25. If you're a member of the "Annual New Glock Club" like me, membership easily pays for itself.
