Thanks guys, thats what I was looking for, if one was smaller than the other. My buddy has a 22 but I dont know anyone that has a 23, so I didnt know the difference. I may need to get one or the other, for a job that I am looking into... No I am not a hitman. hahaha

glocks other than 9mm's can be problematic. here's something right off of streamlight's web page about the issues people are having with some g22/23's jamming when tac lights are attached: Quote:
get an m&p 40cal, more accurate and reoils less than glock 40cals.....and they don't start to malfunction when a tac light is attached. |

True, if you think that it's necessary to hang a light off of one. I hear the clamp-on bayonet poses the same problems... |

I have Glock 17 in 9mm and Glock 23 in 40 SW..Both are reliable and work just fine..I've put 2000 rds in my 17 and 400 rds in my 23 with no problem of whatsoever..and minimal cleaning as well. the 22 is a full size pistol, depending on your built you might be able to carry it as a concealed weapon..However, the 23 is a compact size and it is easier for carry.. It really depends on what you want it for. Carry, Home defense, range practice..etc..
The advantage of bigger guns is that they have longer barrels and thus longer sight radius (the distance between the rear and front sights)..This will help the shooter to attain better sighting control of the target.. But for defensive shooting, with lots of practice the difference is minimal. |
