Is the Glock 26 obsolete ?

[hendo]

It's all relative. Not much is obsolete if you already carry it, shoot it well, have all the gear holsters mags, custom parts etc. I would pass it up now. It's not obsolete if you bought it ten years ago, have 4 holsters, custom trigger, custom sights and shoot it well.

A webbly is outdated.

This. As Jeff mentioned above, the use of longer length mags and the fit to a holster or other equipment is also a plus. These are the things that keep my from buying a different model.

I wouldn't say any more obsolete than carrying a 1911 at this point. Sure there are smaller guns that carry more rounds but if that is what you prefer to carry because of proficiency, go for it.

Yes.
I kind of want to order a G26 just to save for........ well...... because I'm a hoarder, and I think it will be a nostalgic item.

G43X with 20 round mag FTW.

While I carry the G27 on my hip plus an extra magazine (10 rounds w/grip extension) and a flashlight on the other hip, I carry several G22 15 round magazines in my murse ... err ... backpack.

The G26 imho is the best ccw gun produced in the last 20+ yrs. The sheer ability to accept much larger mags as a backup is invaluable.
I can ccw a G26 all day in shorts and a t shirt. And I can carry 5 33rd mags with me on a extended trip and never feel out gunned. For the money it literally is the most bang for your buck in a sub compact platform. And this is coming from an HK junkie.

I agree. I even bought 2 (consecutive numbers!) many years ago and still carry one everyday.

Do that in California and you'd be deemed a terrorist!

The 33 rd mags are what get me most jealous of glocks and I ask why can't FNH, CZ, S&W, SA, SIG etc produce a similar sized mag, even if its just 28-29 I could get by with a 29 rd factory mag for my sig.

It really does make me jealous.
