Glock 17.4 vs HK SFP9

As the title states- Glock 17.4 vs HK SFP9

The Hk is ergonomically superior in my opinion but I have seen that it isn’t as robust, and Honda Civic like when it comes to reliability. I sold an SFP9 and am thinking I regret it, but still hang on to the fact my Glock 17.4 is just the work horse of reliability.

What say you CGN’ers- which pistol wins and why?

I tried handling a Glock and it didn’t feel right in me hand
Tried the SFP and that’s a better fit.
Pistol hasn’t let me down but I can’t speak for a glock

I would say "right out the gate", the HK has a better trigger. YMMV.

I've have:
Gen3 glock with a Timberwolf frame
Stock gen5 glock
Walther Q5

I know it's not a HK SFP but it's the Walther is the closest I have. It's more egonomic than the stock glock with a way better trigger out of the box.

The Gen3 with the Timberwolf frame is awesome in regard to ergos. Timney trigger with a Zev connector makes this one great too.

The stock gen5 also does work but it I need to change my grip a bit and it takes more effort to get generally the same results.

HK SFP9 is superior right of the box but the Glock 17 has the market covered for customization, spare parts and servicing.

Ergonomically I find the H&K SFP9 "outstanding" and the Glock 17.4 "tolerable". Pretty much best in class vs. worst in class for me. That doesn't stop me from liking both, a lot, but for very different reasons.

If it's going to be used the way 99% of us use pistols, then the H&K is the winner for me by a very, very long margin.

If it's going to be used hard in rough conditions the Glock is probably the winner (but I haven't looked hard for long term SFP9 reliability tests, torture tests, etc.).
