Glock 23

the glock 22, 23, and model 27 are .40 glock Semi Automatic Pistols. I just purchased a glock 23, and must say it is a lot nicer and more fun to shoot, then my Beretta M9 (92FS).
I love the Glock 22 23 and 27.
I bought the compact .40 glock 23 yesterday and damn was that a big hole in the target. Glock model 22 is full size, and the 27 is a subcompact.

23rd psalm

The Lord is my Shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:
He leadeth me beside the still waters.
He restoreth my soul:
He leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for His name' sake.
Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death,
I will fear no evil: For thou art with me;
Thy rod and thy staff, they comfort me.
Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of mine enemies;
Thou annointest my head with oil; My cup runneth over.
Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the House of the Lord forever.

-- KJV
When that mf had a gun to my head, I said the 23rd psalm.
