And I think I'll get the olive green frame just to have something a little different. Advice?

Springfield Armory XD .... Take a look before you by a glock.

Trintium night sights. Also remember that while Glocks fire anything, they can fire out of battery. Because of this do not use reloads, use only factory new ammo. Check your owners manual, the warranty is voided if reloads are used. Good luck and good shooting.

Put your hand on it first! Does it feel right? Compare it to the Sprinfield XD and the S&W M&P. They are all good choices so pick the one that fits your hand and you can site it quickly. We are all different. I can shoot circles around a Glock with an XD and an M&P but one of my shooting buddies does better with the Glock. www.nealsoutdoors.com

You might want to consider the Glock 27. Same size. One less round in the magazine and a bit more recoil, but bigger bullets.

Test fire a G-26, if at all possible. There are other good guns out there. Although I've sold my two SIG's, they are reliable, as are Kahr's, Kel-Tec's, and XD's. But I'm a Glock fan (Glocks have grip angles similar to revolvers) who loves his G-27! A 9mm in a short barreled gun might not be enough power. For the same reasons as John explained, you might consider a Glock 27 or 33. Also, with either one, swapping a barrel converts the gun to/from .40 S&W from/to .357 SIG. This gives you options regarding power levels, recoil, and ammunition prices. You can also get after-market conversion barrels to convert to 9mm for cheaper practice ammo--I think--at least they make conversion barrels for the larger Glocks. Search the web. If you do decide to get a 9mm, be sure to get ammo which won't separate core from jacket, because you never know if someone's going to try to carjack you at a stoplight and you might need to shoot through your window or windshield to protect your family. Either Corbon's 115 gr. DPX loads or the excellent Speer Gold Dot HP in a "short barrel" load should work. Other than these two loads, I like Winchester loads (see chart below comparing their bullet performance in naked gelatin and through 7 different barrier materials); and also the Corbon 115 gr. +P load, although it flashes, bangs, and kicks too much and separates and fragments if you sneeze--it is hot and gives you .357 level performance in a 9mm.
