Default HP Tuners or Glock 23?

Which would you buy?

I have a chance to buy a Glock 23 with Tritium night sights and several magazines (including 2 30's) basically brand new.

Or

HP Tuners VCM suite standard?

GREAT PISTOL! Big knock down power except smaller caliber than the 45 and also compact. Bad *** psitol...if you miss and hit the target in the shoulder he WILL hit the deck. 9mm won't drop a man like that.

But, which will you use more? which will benefit you more? which will make more economical sense? which will give you a hard on every time you "power it up"? LOL

Hard choice...good luck.

I had several Glocks and really don't care for them. They seem to get top heavy as the magazine empties, and I don't like the fact that they don't have a conventional safety. For fooling around I liked it ok, but for concealed carry I didn't really feel comfortable with one in the hole. It sounds like it's "set-up" nice, and to each his own. Sig Sauer OWNS when it comes to handguns. Not sure if you've ever fired one, but to me it's the Mercedes Benz of pistols. They are pricey, and like everything else, you get what you pay for. Good luck with which ever you get, both will be fun.

BTW, have you seen the new 556 Sig Assault Rifle.

I dont want to use money as a deciding factor but I will say this. My brother (who is a cop) has many hand guns and I have none. He is selling me the Glock for an insane price. Significantly less then HP Tuner. But, again I dont want money to be the deciding factor. I would use the HP Tuner more. Every time I drive my truck I would enjoy its benefits. But, its not a fair comparison because I usually dont pack on my way to pick up a burrito from the taco wagon.

Buy gun, shoot gun, sell gun for profit, then buy hpt. I've found that I get bored owning the same gun for extended periods of time.

Easy choice. Which are you more likely to do in the next 6 months? Drive your truck, or shoot some **** btwn the eyes?

The thing is I already have several gun just in case some **** be all up in my grill. But I dont own a hand gun yet and the price is insane.

Another thing is Im the only potential buy for the Glock as it is my brother that is selling it.

Im the only prospective buyer. If I dont buy it he keeps it. But I have the money to buy it or HP Tuner now but not both.
