Try the 642, it has a smaller grip, I had trouble with it 'numbing' my hand after firing only a few shots. Accurate as the Glock though.
Your experience may be different...

I agree. The 642 makes a good pocket gun. I have one in my pocket right now and I can't even feel it's there. However, if you're looking for something that will be a lot easier to shoot at 15 yards go with the Glock. I think both are good choices in a firearm. It just comes down to what you want to use it for. Best of luck in your decision!

Edited to add: I also wanted to add that I have pretty large hands and my 642 chews my hand all up when I shoot it much. Which may be something for you to consider.

The only area in which the 642 beats the G26, is weight. Otherwise, the G26 is superior in every meaningful way. Get a 642, load it with the FBI load, and take it out to the range along with a G26, and compare the two. The Glock is more durable, every bit as reliable (maybe moreso, as it doesn't have a lock), doubles to triples the firepower, is much easier to shoot accurately, and has much less felt recoil. I've owned two 642, and a 340 M&P, and they're great in a pocket, but ultimately, I know that if I ever had to use a small CCW firearm in a defensive situation, I'd much prefer the G26. Didn't someone once say, "comforting, not comfortable"?
