Well I haven’t even had it for 2 hours and I had to throw a light on it.

Nice, myself not into lights on a pistol, but I am a Glock guy on here, just ask them…..congrats!

I’m a total light guy due to the shift I work. I used to be a Glock fanboy but I figured I’d get a G23 before I regretted it.

Thank you and personally it might be overkill but who knows.

Yep, its a Glock, hope it works well for you.

I'm not a light guy but have no issues with a Glock. Good luck with your new firearm.

Nice G23 and light...

Congrats, Great choice

It definitely doesn’t have the Glock feel.

It’s definitely a keeper.

I’m not a Glock girl…my hand just doesn’t care for them, but I know they are very reliable (quite a few folks I know swear by them). Congrats on your new acquisition! And congrats on the light too. I always thought that Glocks look a little naked without one, JMHO.

Weirdly enough I never thought of owning another Glock after both G43X’s I have had and dealing with Glock IQ. I saw this one (G23) and decided why not after holding it a few times. In a way it doesn’t feel like a typical Glock but it does. It reminded me of shooting my M&P M2.0 10MM for the first time (I still love it and use it as my EDC).

I’m a total light guy and dork out when I get a new firearm. It’s an obsession.

It has good weight with a full mag and a solid feel for me

On fence with lights. I like the foxtrot i have on my smitty but surefire on echelon just feels off for some reason. Yours looks great, enjoy shooting!

Congratulations! You've chosen one of the very best defensive handguns on the market! If you haven't already, perhaps get some formal training on when/how to use the light in the most safe & effective way possible.

Low light classes can also show the advantages of a separate light in hand as opposed to attached

Definitely agree it has a good weight and not too much of the Glock feel in the hand. Shooting it will take a little getting used to but that will take time.

It’s not for everyone. With the amount of money I spent on lights I could have gotten another gun to shoot. Plus it’s just another thing to clean after a range day.

Not a Gen 5 (or a light) guy as I believe perfection was achieved at the Gen 3, but the 23 is about as good a CCW package as can be had.

You did really good. I’m on the lookout for some deals on Glocks now that they have streamlined their product line.
