If I only could own 1 hand gun I would choose the G 19 as it is a bit more comfortable to conceal. I shoot both the 17 and 19 several time/week and both are easy to shoot well and I have no problems transitioning from one to the other. Both have identical frame treatments, triggers and sights. I typically carry the 19 AIWB and the 17 in a Safariland ALS. My time to 1st shot is about .2 sec quicker from AIWB but I can live w/ either if I practice regularly. I shoot 200 rounds/week through each and have never had a malfunction. I also dryfire about 10 minutes/day from concealment as I consider this my highest shooting priority.
