FINALLY.....new G26!
I have wanted a G26 for a long time now, and I finally picked one up this afternoon. I'd post pics, but it looks like every other G26 out there....brand new, two 10 round mags, standard sights. It's going to be perfect for hot weather carry, and as a BUG.
I've been dry firing it tonight to try to get used to it, but I can see it will take some work. Range report tomorrow!

The G-26 appears to be a great CCW weapon...get some Trij's on it.
I bought one a couple of weeks ago (when I picked up my Kimber Compact)...I still haven't taken it to the range yet.
Stay armed...stay safe!

Doesn't matter. Every baby looks alike, but we all want to see them. Well maybe JD and Lima's baby will be holding a Glock, but hey, they are the exception.

Get some good night sights too - world of difference. I have the Triji's on the G17, but prefer the High Visibility Tru Glo TFO's on my G256

Nice. I love my Glock 26. It's a great balance of firepower, reliability, and conceal-ability.

I got the Pearce mag extensions for all my mags because I just couldn't get used to the "tucked pinkie" technique.

Congrats on a great CCW. You'll be happy I'm sure. It'll make a great BUG for your 17.

It is better to have your gun and not need it, than to need it and not have it!
Still can't believe what happened on 11/06/12! Disgusted and disappointed!

Great gun... I've thought this will be a great summer carry, but I'm sure it will be a great year round carry. I added Pearce +0 to all but one of my magazines... it's always good to have options. Here is one of my first pictures and then another one with the Pearce +0 magazine extension in a new Mitch Rosen holster:

Former: Taurus 92SS, SIG P220 TT, S&W 360, SIG P239-40, Ruger 22/45 MKII

Most excellent choice of pistola!
The G26 to me is surprisingly accurate for such a small gun. I don't think I could ever let mine go.

I think everyone needs one in their collection. Along with my 642, it has become a favorite carry. My recent acquisition came with night sights in which I'm well pleased.
It all comes down to going down the dark holes after monsters. That’s what it’s all about; when everyone else is huddled around the campfire, somebody has to go out and fight.
