Still Recommend Glock 26 or Now Springfield Hellcat or FN Reflex

- Do I still recommend the Glock 26 as pocket carry or concealed carry self defense or have I finally changed to just recommending the Springfield Armory Hellcat or maybe the FN Reflex? All three are chambered in 9mm and can be easily pocket carried using the correct wardrobe choices.

I have a Glock 19 and wanna pick up a 26 as I’ve found myself deciding not to carry due to bulk. Now that I’m in the Glock ecosystem I feel like it’s dumb to move to another platform even if they have some small edges. I absolutely love the 19, and a 26 feels like a no brainer.
Glock 26 MOS is actually released now 100% verified. It only took glock 3 years to long but better late then never.
Damn, you're right. I saw they released the gen 5 G20 MOS also. I wonder if the G29 gen 5 is coming soon.
The Glock 26 is still the king of them all, for me. Shoots so much better than the micros. I have tried them all and keep a 26 and a shield plus as main 2 options. Lots of good options.
I like the Glock 26 a hair better than the Hellcat because it's easier to grip. Otherwise, I'd go with the Springfield Hellcat
Got a my g26 gen 5 milled for a red dot and I’ll tell you what … accurate as can be
I’ve had all 3, the P365 and Shield. I’ve got 1200+ rounds though my FN reflex now and it’s the best yet. I’ve installed Sig X-RAY sights on it and it’s been 100%. I didn’t jive well with the stock sights.
It’s softer shooting than the Hellcat and P365. It’s about the same as the Shield + but lighter, easier to rack slide and WAY easier to load mags, than all of them. It’s my fav gun along with my P365 XMacro Comp.
Between the reflex , hellcat , 365 - is the reflex thicker ? I’m torn between 365 and FN and I’ve been told the reflex is thicker - but if that’s from front of grip to back that’s ok - but not if it’s thickness / width. Does the FN handle recoil any better??
@@peopleperson7263The Reflex is not thicker than the hellcat or Sig
G26 LE trade in just entered my chat room this year. Really love the little guy!
Nice video. I prefer the Hellcat. Mine have been super reliable. I don’t find either the OSP or Pro to be snappy. I really like Springfields magazines, stainless construction and they easily load to full capacity and insert into the pistol without any issue. I tried a Reflex and liked the feel but I felt the trigger was a little to light for a carry gun for me. Maybe it was just the sample that I tried.
Prefer my Shield Plus to all of these.
I was surprised it wasn't included.
The Shield+ and the G26 are the standard bearers.
Just picked up a gen4 Glock 26 brown and black with 4 back straps a 10 round and 15 round mag. The case and all papers slightly used for 360 out the door very happy with it will be carrying it over my xd9 subcompact mod2 grip zone and my p365.
Glock 26 is a very good gun, one you can trust your life with.
My gun shop yesterday said that Glocks are basically the AK-47 of the pistol world. I tend to agree
I'm a Springfield fan. They are running a promotion providing 3 extra mags through December.
Wow, Im not alone.
Not too many Springfield fans out there given all the political stuff on social media. I can like the Product without liking the company.
The gear up package is an excellent value and big plus for the product.
Agree Hellcat is an excellent firearm!
I carry an unmodified Hellcat with 11 round pinky extension mag.
I do not shoot to the break. I find that if I shoot to the break, my groupings are not as good and I can not get shots off as quickly or as accurately. Especially during rapid fire drills, my finger comes off the trigger and stays in the guard. As I am re-acquiring the target, my finger comes back on the trigger and to the wall. As soon as I am back on target, I simply have to break the wall. This way i am not pulling the muzzle off target or jerking the trigger while taking the shot.
I prefer the Hellcat because it has a well-defined wall that breaks with about a 5 pound pull. The wall is easy to find and I do not waste time trying to find the reset.
My preference is the Hellcat, I bought this one as soon as it came out and available. Great personal defense weapon. I have a Glock 26 but I prefer the Springfield , just IMO
God Bless (us all)
Cool thing about the G26 is you have all kinds of high capacity magazines available for it. I have a 43x I really like but I plan to get a 26 at some point. If I were to go Hellcat I'd get the Pro model. Just not a fan of the FN's. Maybe the Reflex is good but they have always been overpriced IMHO !
I have the Gx4 myself which comes with either 11 or 13 round factory mags. I am looking at getting my first glock though. Either the 26 or 19.
If you want capacity there is a 32 round magazine for the glock, and even a drum 90 round magazine.
I did see glock serated extentions of 13 15 and 17 rounds
My EDC is a P365. I don't like it's accuracy. I rented the G26 recently and shot it much better than my P365. From now on I'll rent the guns I'm interested in first and include my performance shooting that particular gun into my decision to buy.
The Glock 26 does actually have an optics ready version. Gen5 26 MOS.
Hellcat does come with optics-ready option.
I love carrying a thin (and small grip) gun but they aren’t much fun to shoot. But as a self defense intention, fun isn’t necessary.
I’m ready to take a look at the PSA Dagger line, they are basically innovating on the Glock platform, which is obviously needed.
Whoever was shooting at the end, was on target!
I alway carry my glock 26 over my sig p229, I love my 229 but when I go walking or running I can really feel the weight.
Glock might have some changes now since Gaston has passed away RIP sir.
hoping for glock serialized fcg like sig...put that fcg in any frames 👀
I have the Hellcat, it's been a great EDC. But the FN Reflex MRD has taken over as my EDC. I shoot the Reflex way better🤷♂️
g26 is one of my favorites all time. But the micro 9s just have the edge now imo. G26 is a legend but father time catches up to everything. I carry the Reflex.
I really like my hellcat im exited for the new micro 9 H&K might trade in the hellcat once its available stateside.
I have a hellcat sitting in FFL jail, waiting for a "delay" to clear.
Current EDC is a VP9 (Full size).
I'm excited about the SF9cc by HK (probably be called VP9cc in USA) should be a pretty nice addition to the line up.
@@vegeta420z6Is there any word when the SFP9CC will be available in the US?
HK didn't have any at Shot Show 2024 unfortunately
@@HammerStriker Yeah from what I heard we most likely won't see this micro 9 until 2026. I'm not too worried the last few years barely feel like months.
Idk what Glock could really do to “innovate” the Glock pistol line? You can only improve on something so much. I think their pistols are great the way they are and have been for many years. They have MOS versions now and rails for lights. I mean, what else is there to do? Honest question. Well….maybe come factory standard with steel sights, but that’s all I can think of 🤷🏻♂️
They kind of locked themselves in with marketing also.
That "Glock Perfection" motto was great for 20+ yrs... changing the design kind of is an admission of lack of perfection, eventually they're gonna have to do something to stay competitive, it'll be interesting to see what.
@@Peakfreudsomethings are just great the way they are...iconic,old and great and thats why people love them....things like 1911s, thompsons, aks and uzis, no matter how "crude" or "outdated" people complain they are just seem to seemlessly work and get the job done in any condition....even tho there are more innovative,ergononic and even lighter weapons but there is only one fonzerelli, if you get what im saying
@@soulbrother1143 I agree some what, but eventually wood stock gave way to cheaper and lighter plastics, polymer also made production faster & cheaper, innovation for civil usage is slower, for military usage every slight edge is pursued.
Even the 1911 evolved to accommodate optics
The 1911 also slowly made its way off the battle field along with the traditional 45.
Glock has also changed, there just so many makes and the keep the same ergonomics and design line that it appears that they haven't
But the Micro line of 9's is definitely innovation & evolution, small innovations add up albeit slowly to redefine design.
If they make standard 15 rd mags and 20rd mags oem for the 43x and 48 then it’s over for the micro / slim line competitors I think Glock just letting them get some sales for the moment it’s coming
I definitely prefer my mos fde FN reflex because it’s just thick enough for a great grip I didn’t like the slim feel of the hellcat and the glock was too bulky
What trigger is that
I would like to know the same!
I agree
I you think the glock 26 is fat you should try putting the walter pdp compact in your hand it will make any glock look slim.
You forgot about the plus 2 factory magazines for the 26... I just don't know nor understand about what does glock need to do to change their pistols??? I keep hearing innovate, innovate, innovate what??
I do think Glock should tap into the PCC market and just maybe try to make a 5.7 but far as their pistols No. Keep them the same it's for a reason and that reason is reliability.
The same people who complain about Glock should innovate are the same people who people who put aftermarket parts in their Firearms no matter the brand and they wonder why the gun doesn't work.... People should just buy a gun for what fits them.. people are putting themselves at risk changing out barrels, guide rod's, and triggers on your EDC all because it looks cool vs it's reliability.
I love my Glocks, but they are bulkier than they need to be and could hold more rounds if they ditched the plastic sleeved mags that get stuck in the mag well sometimes. They also come with plastic sights. They are amazing in their simplicity, and I love that I can completely disassemble and reassemble the entire gun with my eyes closed. But to say that any changes would ruin their reliability is shortsighted. There are plenty of guns out there that score just as high if not higher than Glocks in NATO testing and those companies are innovating. Glocks still hold so much of the market share, so they are resting on their laurels.
I went with the sig myself but yeah glock made a great thing but they kinda need to making something newer
I have the hellcat and the 26. The hellcat is just too damn snappy and ill be getting rid of it. Maybe for the reflex or even the GX4 from taurus
I love the reflex, I’ve had or have them all glock 26 seems fat after holding hellcat or reflex. I think hellcat is too snappy for a 9mm & the grip feels like a square Lego block, fn reflex feels 10X better in my hands and I like grip better.
Lastly the hellcats sight are ok, but not a fan of that little U shape in the rear. Both are far better than G26, if I was a new gun owner today I think that it’s possible I would not own a Glock. I do still love the G19 and G17 but with the sig 365 platform it would win out, and for real full size guns the VP9 or walther would take the cake
Glock 26 all day every day
Haven’t considered a 26 in almost a decade….
Oh, but you should!
One of the originals..
Never owned one, but I had a 27... Very Snappy gun. Still like it though
Good God I Love This Channel ❤
Agree
The hogue makes the hellcat a different beast to me because the grip was kind of irritating on my skin I get a very nice grip and shoot it better
Glock 26 master race
My reflex has the sights mounted wrong and was quite unreliable for the first 100 so far. The g26 or similar guns just can't do what guns like the reflex do. They can't fit in a normal pant pocket.
You don't pick a tiny compact gun because you want to, it's out of necessity. If you can carry the 26, you can carry a PDP compact. So yes, guns like that make no sense anymore.
I'm a 43x with a shield mag kinda guy. I've never had a single malfunction through well over 2k rounds and its comfy to carry iwb.
My pocket pistol is a LCP Max 380.
Wow the FN the least accurate. No wonder you said Hellcat. Just bought the Pro.
26 ❤
Love my hellcat. Serious caliber in a pocket sized pistol. I love glocks but, 26 is a heavy brick in the pocket and the 43x is a good bit longer.
What trigger did the hellcat have?
It's the apex trigger
Gun guys will get one of each 😊
43x
canik mc 9 for me!
Hellcat for me. Takedown lever on the Reflex and Hellcat are much better than the Glock's.
I never heard somebody choosing a gun over the ability to take it apart. I didn't think that would matter. S&W bodyguard is very annoying to take apart and that criteria still doesn't matter when talking about a defensive handgun.
I didn't even consider the takedown lever, and only think about it when I debate with myself (again) over replacing it with a gas pedal. For me, it was the flared edges keeping my nubs off the slide, the grip texture, the placement of the magazine release, the best combat optics I've seen on a pistol, the 15 round capacity, the slide release having the ability to rack a round, the rail, the stainless slide, the undercut trigger guard, and the trigger guard being large enough to use with gloves, the polished extended feed ramp and the halfway decent gen 2 trigger. I like the Kimber Mako's trigger better, but the overall useful and well thought out features on the Hellcat are what won me over. The handle size feels better (for me) than the Sig P365. Add in the Hellcat's reputation for feeding any ammo without a hiccup and otherwise being very reliable and you've got a recipe for a decent gun.
Neither...p10s over g26
😂
And as usual, the pistols only have one side. We left handed freaks just need to deal with it I guess.🤡
H&K VP9 is a good choice for lefties.
Gen5 is totally ambidextrous
First need to learn to grip a firearm 😂😂😂😂
