The G19 is an excellent weapon it's one of my favorites. Very comfortable to shoot and accurate. You might want to consider the G26 which is also a 9mm just the sub compact of the G19 this will be even easy to conceal also a great shooter in a small package You can interchange mags between these two guns. Both are great guns.
I ended up going G19. I checkd out the 26, but felt the 19 was the way to go. The 26 was not that much smaller, and I wanted something with a full grip. It is to be my fall, winter, early spring carry. For summer i have the old stand-by, an Airweight Centennial DAO .38: I can wear Bermuda shorts and a polo shirt and just slip it in my pocket and head to work. However, its purely a self-defence gun, and I wanted something for cool/cold weather that was a little more versatile. Thanks for confirming what i thought. Much appreciated ;c

you can't go wrong with the G19 I love mine it's one of my favorites. I think you will be very happy with the G19 good choice:cool:
It's the only gun on my permit for a reason. I live in Kalifornia, so we have to list each carry gun on our permits (B.S.). That being said, you can't go wrong with a 19. As a public safety employee, I trust my life, and the lives of my loved ones to this fine pistol. :soap:

G19. 15 rounds of 9mm will do the job.

I just picked up a g19. Had a g36 and had problems with it, so i knew the 19 would do the job. It's a great gun in a great holster = great concealment. VM2 by the way...

The G19/23/32 size is an excellent package and the G19 has the least recoil and ammo is cheap. I can't disagree with that choice. :)

Can't beat the 19, i conceal it under a tshirt in the florida heat. 16 rounds of DoubleTap 124gr +p and another 15 in my pocket, i never feel undergunned.
