I am trying to continue to hold off of buy a Block. A co-worker just told me I can get a discount since I am an industrial fire fighter. Don't know if I can hold out much longer.
What he is talking about is Glock's Blue Label program

you have to go to a authorized Glock dealer and they should have a special selection of Glocks that are set aside for Blue Label customers. Current and retired Military vets, Fire fighters, and just about any first responder.
The prices are about $100 less so its a really good deal
When the glocks first hit the market I was very excited until I fired a friends handgun. As a southpaw I remember the mag release button extending out so much that the recoil would cause my index finger to brush against it and release the magazine on occasion. This made me lose interest in this gun and have never looked at them again. Do the new models have less protruding release button or at least allow to change the release for us southpaws?
Someone would have to have a Gen 1 model around to compare a Gen 3 or 4 to
I've handled a Gen 1 years ago that's all
The Gen 1 model came out around 1981
There have been quite a few upgrades
