Good choice, I have 2 of them. Was going to sell the one but realized how much I love it.

I have a gen 4 and a gen 3 rtf.

Gen 4 for carry (when I carry a glock) and rtf for the collecting aspect.

As far as glocks in general, I have 4 with at least two more in the immediate future. Great guns, I love them.
