I love my Glock, it's reliable, durable and it shoots like a dream. I didn't like the Sig because of the high bore axis, the Glock, even though it's a .45 is a lot more comfortable to shoot since it doesn't flip as much. I have pretty big hands so I love the big grip of the G21. Another plus is the wealth of aftermarket stuff you can get for it.
I've heard a few stories of Glocks going KaBoom, but I'm not worried. I only shoot factory rounds and maintain my guns properly.
I don't have a desert eagle, but at the time when I registered it was my favourite gun. I have shot a few, and it's cool but I don't like the high price and the issues I've seen some of my fellow shooters have with them.

I don't own a gun, mostly because I'm not old enough, and I'm broke. But I have fired a few, quite a few, actually. I don't remember most of the model names though.
Guns I have fired: - single shot 20 guage - double barrel .410 - .22 semi-auto pistol - Smith & Wesson .38 special - .22 semi-auto rifle - 30-30 lever action rifle - Winchester .338 rifle
Guns I remember the names of: - Glock 23 (.40) - Diemaco C8A2Diemaco C8 (fully automatic)
^^^ Those two I fired when I was visiting my cousin in Calgary. He's on the tactical team, which is why the C8 is Fully Automatic.
*I tried getting the Diemaco site up, but it wouldn't work for some stupid reason.

He might not, but i do! | It's .357. It's not a Desert Eagle 
Glocks obviously have their following. I'm not a big fan. I don't like hammerless and I don't like DAO. Not a big fan of the boxy design or the polymer frame either. Also, their low-profile slide releases take some getting used to. Once used to it though, it's surprisingly not so difficult to cope with.
That said, there's no sound quite like a Glock's slide being racked.

Ee! The thread lives. Lots of questions now: First, desert_eagle, you sold a p226 for a glock? What the hell is wrong with you  I'm only certified in my department with a glock 26 as a BUG so far, so I carry that on my vest and I hate the hell out of it. Never liked glocks, because like Demarest I can't stand hammerless. Demarest, do you CC those puppies? One or two at a time? Obrien: Your best bet is with some sort of online gun dealer, like gunbroker.com. My 226 is handling quite nicely as a duty weapon (haven't had to use it yet, thankfully), but I'm a little tiffed about my m4. It's at the armorer's right now, had to get the whole receiver replaced.

Only once have I been in a situation where I was limited to carrying one and all I could think about was if the other was being stolen. I like to carry them so that I know nobody's stolen them and are out wreaking havoc. Carrying both is actually surprisingly comfy.

How do you go about comfortably carrying two? Both at the waist, one at the ankle...?
When I'm on duty, I carry my BUG in my ballistic vest's straps, which is kind of par-for-course. Off duty, I prefer an inside the waistband holster, and I've never been keen on the idea of having two handguns off duty; simply because I've never given any thought to it. I am now, though.
I figure if I have to carry the POS tiny glock ONduty, I might as well get an ankle holster for off duty as well.

Not my best, but not bad considering it was off-handed. That means left-handed only when I'm right-handed. That's 29 shots at 21 feet.
