There are plenty of features that make Glock handguns popular, not only for duty carry but for personal protection as well as for sporting and competitive use.

Among these are the fact that these handguns are polymer-framed, which keeps weight down and streamlines maintenance, and the fact that they offer simple, basic aesthetics.

What sort of muzzleloader did you learn to shoot?

Was it a modern inline or did you learn on a sidelock like the rest of us?

If it was the latter, there’s no surprise there. Many a front stuffer learns the ropes on a caplock or even a flintlock shooting “holy black” and patched round balls.

In competition, how quickly you can reload will impact how quickly you can shoot, which means that it’s in your interest to practice reload drills till you can load and shoot as quickly as is safely possible.

Of course there are also implications associated with reload speed and concealed carry, too.

Have you recently gotten into muzzleloading? It’s enjoyable, rewarding, there’s a lot to learn about muzzleloaders and how they work, and there are lots of liberal seasons in most states around the country.

Simple as the platforms are, many Glock owners take a lot of pride in personalizing and upgrading your handguns.

Perhaps it is expressly because of how simplistic and plain Glocks are from the factory. These things don’t even have safeties.
