I hated the look of Glocks and other firearms, but learned a long time ago that nothing is more important than function and reliability.
I used to mock those that bought SKS's until I saw what can be done with them and saw all of the myths exploded before my eyes. I believe that using looks as the criteria for rejecting a superior reliably functioning firearm is irrational.
There are the Glock haters.
There are the Glock lovers.
I am neither. I own two that will soon expand to four because they digest just about any ammo I can feed them, they are reliable, and I do not have the irrational fear that lack of enough safety features will get me or those around me killed although this may be a valid concern for the untrained beginner.
I would not throw the baby out with the bath water. I consider the total weapon system and if it exceeds my rational criteria, I buy it no matter how uncool or cool they are or look. If it looks really cool AND is superior, bonus!
