It's actually the compact version- the G19. Sub compact is G26. California has very strict gun laws, so we are limited to 10 round capacity magazines on all handguns and rifles. I cannot purchase a G18 magazine since it's illegal over here . I went to the range yesterday and it performed very well. I've shot the Sigp226, XD9, M&P9, but the Glock felt the best

Lol @ people buying expensive HDMI cables. What a waste of money..

It's a digital signal. Either it works or it doesn't. It's not analog and you aren't going to get a bit more of signal quality from that $90 glorified USB cable than you are a $3 one.

Sorry bro but its been tested and proven that don't make it better. Your just paying for what you think is good. Your tv is what makes it look good or not with the B-ray player.

yeah I know the tv is give picture, but I did test between these cable with Monster cable which is great cable, it is day and night different, but for the TV itself it does it own thing, but when talking about DVD or Bluray movies, especially 3D movies the good cable must needed

You only need an HDMI if you are using 1080p like blue ray, 3D or game. Live tv is only broadcasted up 1080i which a component cable can handle. Check out monoprice.com for low price audio/video cables and mounts. But if you like that Monster crap....check your local Best Buy. They even carry flux capacitors to turn your TVs' into 4k a TV!

Default HDMI Cables - When in doubt, ask the Mythbusters.
