Glocks carried for personal security professionals

from Athlon https://athlonoutdoors.com/article/...ampaign=What+Protection+Agents+Actually+Carry

so what I'd like to add is that if you're in a suit and have an earpiece and wearing dark sunglasses near a celebrity/politician etc, we all know you are a bodyguard and the point of concealed carry is somewhat mooted. Otherwise a decent article but does come off a bit like a Glock ad.

A Glock with a Brooks Brother's suit has always seemed antithetical. You should wear WalMart polyester suits with Glocks. SIG or HK or custom with bespoke suits. That is your fashion advice for today's gun toting gentleman.

Say what you want, Glock has established itself with 65% or more of LE, Security and Military adoptions and the marketing is second to none woth training and parts/factory support. And I say that’s a someone that prefers DA/SA guns and M&P shoot better for me personally but if I was in charge of an agency Glock is hard to beat!

A Glock is a Glock. Honestly I think there is better out there. Personally I don’t like the ergonomics of the Glock. Yes they shoot (except the 43X I had) but that’s all I’ll really say. The guys at GlockIQ fantasy about it but I rather shoot more than that.

Glock is the Walmart in my mind. Yeah, they go bang, but so do my XDs, I'll keep my XDs.

My CZ P10C is quality made and cheaper than a Glock. My XDm’s are the same way.

Not certain that I would refer to a Glock as cheap. In the $650-$700 range new ones sell for there are many options.

By the time you fix the trigger and replace the sights they are closer to $1000 than one realizes.

They nearly gave them away to police departments to get them into officers' holsters.
