Now ask yourself, why would anyone choose Glock?
10 Reasons why I would choose a Glock-
1-Because two of mine are 34 years old.
2-I've never had a problem with either one.
3-I've never had to get them serviced for any reason.
4-The G-17 magazines fit the G-19.
5-I've fired an infinite amount of rounds through one of them and only had one brass casing not eject properly. I'll accept the blame for that one.
6-Most parts are interchangeable if ever needed.
7-It would take me a month to remove the ammo from as many magazines I have.
8-Every bad guy knows what a Glock looks like and the damage they can cause to a bad guy.
9-Every bad guy knows how many rounds I could fire in less than 15 seconds if ever placed in self defense mode.
10-They look cool.
I wouldn't ever rule out buying a new gun if it really impressed me. I know Springfields are excellent shooters, I have nothing negative to say about Springfield XD's.
What more can I say other than "I'm a Glockster"....

Well,in our defense, this is a Springfield thread.
Won't be long, curiosity will get you and you'll shoot one and be converted.
Good point!and I'm going to post something in the Glock thread.
34 years? I'd have worn out a couple of barrels easy, I mean even if you only put a 1000 rds through them a year, that would be 34,000 rds each. I've never heard any glock owner say they have more than 12000 rds through theirs...
Just about everything on your list applies to Springfields as well...
The Glock thread seems dead.

This was my first thought. After reading that list we can conclude you have no reason to chose a Glock over a Springfield.
