Pros:
-Reliable (0 malfunctions of any kind; with and without tac light attached)
-Accurate
-Excellent traction from the grip texturing
-Easy to maintain
-TONS of aftermarket support
-Only 23oz -Accepts 15 and 22 round factory magazines
-Glock's customer service is second to none
-Durable finish
-Cheap replacement parts, should you ever need them
-Low Bore Axis resulting in a relatively soft shooting gun
-Easily modified to fit the shooters' preferences
-Requires very little cleaning/lubrication to run reliably
-I think the gills add a little more positive grip when cycling the action even though some think they're backwards
-It's a versatile platform. 357sig and 9mm conversions are very simple.Cons:
-They're becoming harder and harder to find-I'm not a fan of the factory plastic sights
-Can irritate some peoples' skin if they carry it against the skin
Here's a video with some shooting from the 12m line, a table top review and discussion, a size comparison with other Glocks and a P229, and a chronograph test with some popular defensive loads.
Final thoughts: The RTF2 frame Glocks are my personal favorite choice for every type of use (HD, range, competition, ect...) besides carry. For people that make a living with a gun in their hands I'm not sure there's a better choice out there.
Chrono Data:
Winchester Ranger 135gr JHP: 1180fps, 417 ft/lbs energy
Speer Gold Dot 180gr JHP: 1014fps, 411 ft/lbs energy

Just bought a g22 rtf2 from aim surplus, they keep going in and out of stock. They keep getting g22 gen4 for $299 wanted that but then seen the rtf2 for $329 and I figured it’d be nice to have one Glock with that grip, it was hard to choose the also have G22c for same money.
