You listed several things that you spent money on, except what seems to me to be the most important in learning to shoot a weapons system: Training.
For example, for years my agency has issued Steyr Aug-P rifles for duty. For years I refused to carry the gun, opting for an 870 or an MP-5 for long gun carry. I felt the gun was clumsy, unusual, etc. I was sent to a firearms instructor's advanced training camp a few years back, and I was told that if I wanted to take the abbreviated Urban Rifle course by Thunder Ranch, I had to use the issued AUG.
Reluctantly, a co-worker and I took our AUGS, and we learned the weapon like our agency could never have taught us, and our guns ran like sewing machines, shooting like we were experts!
Just food for thought - every gun has its quirks, but I am sure that the Glocks you have could be unloaded to a willing buyer without much effort.
