    glock 19 or 23

    19 or 23 ? The first Glock I carried was the Gen 3. 26 . Later , I thought I needed a little more power and bought a Gen 3. 23. In test firing for accuracy , I was getting groups of 1.5 " to 2" routinely @ a 50ft. distance from a rest with both calibers . Now, however the performance of most...

    looking into a new 9mm

    In looking for an accurate ,all around pistol , I have another in mind. The CZ- PO- 7 Duty , A real sleeper. At a 50 ft. target ,I have put 5 rounds into 1.125 inches in a rested position. This pistol is a double-action with about a 4 lb. pull in SA. It is listed in the 450.00 range in a lot...

    Most accurate 9mm for under $1000

    One of the best 9 mm. in accuracy has to be the CZ- P 07 Duty . From my 50 ft. rest ,I have fired 1'' to 1.25'' groups using Fiocchi 124 JHP. bullets . I attribute the accuracy to the double action trigger , and firing in single-action mode. Makes a great range gun !

    .40 s&w glock 23 - gen 3

    Glock 23 Having owned several Glocks, I find I like the 23 better than even my 26. It matches the accuracy of the 26 and is easy to conceal.

    need selection help recoil spring - Glock 17L

    One of the facts about the 17L , is that the slide on it and the 17 , weigh exactly the same. It's because of the cut-out in the top on the 17L which makes the slide capable of using the same RS. The L, should shoot the same as it's shorter brother .

    what is your most accurate pistol

    Probably my Ruger Mk.11 stainless with the 6 7/8 '' tapered barrel. At most distances it shoots one ragged hole with match-grade .22s from a good rest.

    Over the years, I've carried a Kimber Custom 11 .45 acp. Also rotate with a Glock 23 @ 1 o' clock IWB . Usually can wear a shirt loose enough not to print.

    Which pistol do you wish you had back?

    Most everyone is referring to semi-autos , but my traded off model 586 4'' 357 mag revolver was one I should have kept. It was very well constructed and very easy to shoot. I noticed it's been reproduced in Smith's latest catalog.

    Concealed Carriers, do you carry spare magazines?

    I usually carry my Glock 23. with the standard mag. If I'm carrying my 1911, I carry an extra 8 round mag. with my 7 round.

    Best modern 40 cal hollow point for a Glock 23

    A good performing JHP if your pistol will feed it is the 180 Gr.JHP Rem . UMC. In my Glock 23 ,I had a few hang ups on chambering until my pistol wore in. Now it feeds and expands well with good penetration. Another is Fed. HST. or the Gold Dot JHPs. I like the 180 Gr. weight as they are pretty...

    How many here have shifted to 40sw?

    It's not really like I shifted over to .40 S&W , it is actually about which ammo has been available during the recent ammo shortages. Some of my LGS,s have been out of one caliber and had lots of another. Nine was gone first, and then .45 ACP.,but .40S&W was sometimes still there. So I like to...

    .32 for within a room defense?

    In my part of the country, most concealed carry instructors recommend at least .380 ACP or .38 Spl. +P as minimum. To many crazed meth- heads and others may not be stopped by lesser rounds. Shoot the largest caliber you are accurate with.

    .22 pistol showdown

    Probably most of the fixed barrel .22 s will outshoot most of us on THR. Rugers' MK 1, 11 111 &.22/ 45s , Browning Buckmark and Colt Woodsman will all perform about the same.

    Should I shoot my Glock 26 better than I shoot my 17

    I've noticed the same accuracy phenom, when shooting my Glock 26 or 23 as compared to my 17L. You would expect the 17L would be more accurate because of the sight radius . In unsupported fire , I find I'm more accurate with my 26 or 23 than I am with 17L. However, when using a good braced...

    147gr 9-mm

    I've found that the 147 Gold Dot works in everything from Glock 26 barrels to a Glock 17L barrel . The 147 Hornady XTP. works well in their loading , but in a Glock 26 ,the same bullet loaded by Fiocchi using the same bullet is too slow and overpenetrates and has poor expansion.

    Anybody put better sights on pocket pistols

    Whenever you become involved in a gun fight ,it's better to know you have usable sights you can actually see. Even Glock 26 & 27s have an accuracy level that benefits from good adjustable sights. I myself need an accuracy level of at least 50 ft. distance. More is always better and you may need...

    180gr 40cal pills hard on frame?

    If you know the bullet weight the .40 S&W is designed around, then you know it is the 180 Gr. bullet weight. The fast moving 135 to 155 gr. bullets move at greater speeds than 180 gr. bullets. Slide velocity is what is hard on your pistol and this is what is tough on the pistol frame.
