If you dont ever intend to conceal carry it you want a full size Glock. Not a Compact.

So your choice is a G17, G22 or G21

These are 9mm .40 and .45 caliber

9mm and .40 guns are the same size and the .45 is slightly bigger.


If you are a big guy get a .45

Its the heaviest but has the best stopping power.

.40 cal is nice but the ammo is more expensive then 9mm.


You could get a G22 .40 cal and put a 9mm Conversion Barrel in it to shoot 9mm for target practice. Then go back to the .40 cal for defense rounds.

sound advice thanks. I'm not a big guy at all. 5'6.5 and small hands.

Is there any realistic risk of a 9mm round not stopping someone compared to a .40?

That's what 15 round clips were made for.

By the way, if you are not a big guy, with big hands, get yourself the Glock 19. It's the more compact version of the 17, and holds 15 rounds.
