2900 rounds on the Glock 44 now.
Haven't been shooting the 44 much since I discovered optics on handguns.
Since the outdoor range in April, I've mostly been trying to learn to shoot rifles.
My original 7 brands of ammo that had no issues still holds & I don't use the brands that had issues.
I still enjoy shooting it.
I did stumble across a Sig 226-22 Classic that reminds me alot of the Glock 44.
Kiesler's was a good shop. It hasn't been owned by them for many years. I guess you are referring to what is now called Kentuckiana which is not associated with the Kiesler family.I picked up my new 44 yesterday from Keislers down in Clarksville. brought it home and shot it 100 trouble free rounds it's fun! just fine
I stepped in something my dog left out in the yard and what was on my shoe reminded me of the g44
if you’re one that just has to have glock written in the side go for it but please do note there are tons of better 22 options in polymer.
I've owned 9 CZs (11 counting rifles), so I'd rather have a dedicated .22LR from CZ.
I've had dozens of Rugers & S/W.
Therefore, I have no dog in the fight for the Glock brand, only having had 5 Glocks, but I do respect that they make good reliable guns.
I'm an open-opportunity .22LR owner: almost never met one that I wouldn't buy to try out, polymer or not.
Most polymer .22LR don't make the cut compared to the metal frames.
The metal frames being my favorite to hold in the hand.
The heavier-the-better is my mantra, but I do love shooting the Glock 44: go figure.
I even spent time shooting your Taurus TX, and it did have a better trigger & was more accurate than the 44 for me.
And yet, I don't rush out & buy the Taurus TX: go figure.
Ask yourself: what do I know that you don't?
If I didn't already have a S&W M&P 22 Compact, I'd be in the market for the Taurus!I think what you know thst I don’t is you secretly have a tx22 and a keltec p17 that you shoot without telling me and are afraid to admit they are both far superior when compared to the Glock 44. In a hierarchy of 22 pistols the 44 sits squarely between a Phoenix arms and sig mosquito

the mp compact is solid and was my favorite polymer 22 until I got the tx22. From then the mp went from favorite plinker to being left out of range trips to being sold
I own a Taurus TX22 and will admit that I think that the G44 is a better gun.
. . .
I don't currently own a G44 either, but I'm curious if there is something besides the leading issues that make you state this?
I've tried Glocks and sold mine. That being said, a lot of people really like them, so they are ok guns. I think the big thing that bugs me about the G 44 is that it doesn't come with a threaded barrel. These days, and at its price point, the threaded barrel should come standard.The barrel issue is main reason and the fact that they are still sending out barrels that shouldn't be leaving the factory (poor quality control). The Glock feels like it is built better. In my testing of one sample each the Glock is more accurate. Check out this video of the TX22 slide disassembly. I have taken TX22 apart and the plastic block that the firing pin is in is so flimsy I am surprised it works. Here is a disassembly video for the G44. Looks more robust to me. I haven't been able to take one apart myself.
