Bought my first Glock today...

[GO!!!!!!!]

So I took the day off. And decided to get myself a brand new G22. Bought it at a local range. Had a houge slip on put on it, fired about 20 rounds through it and it was crazy accurate.

I also thought it would be fun to compare the accuracy of my G22 up against my Hi Point C9 9mm. The resullts speak for themselves.

Here are some pics.






Here is the target with the G22


And here is the HP C9


Later on today... My neighbor who is retired PD and a huge Glock fan hooked me up with a spare external laser sight and holster that fits the gun and laser perfect.

Not much difference IMO between the targets, Now its time to invest in Shooting classes to tighten up those groups...

 

[rojocorsa]

'Tis the only Glock I've tried, the 22.

I only rented it, but I could probably do better with it if I had more practice.

 

[luft97]

Glad you had a good time!

They are great pistols. I own a Glock 17 and 26 both of them have performed flawlessly. That is all I can ask for.

Enjoy.

Outstanding!

 

[CountGlockula]

AWESOME! Keep practicing. Next time bull's eye!

I can see the difference... perhaps you need new glasses yourself.

Was it a new or used Glock? If you want more information regarding the pistol there a site (glocktalk) that will be very informative. I have 4 of them and I have put several thousand rounds through them and the only time they didn't fire was with defective ammo. You will really enjoy shooting when you master the short reset of the trigger.

 

[cerberus65]

How many yards were you shooting from?

 

[CWL]

What range?

Things like range is very important.

If you are 7 yards out...um you need to keep practicing, but it that's at 100 yards, then your shooting is spectactular.

Great news.

IF YOU VISIT www.glockstore.com you will find all cool stuff you can get for your Glock and customize it. I have my G22 with a surefire x200 with DG11 which you can get at www.batteryjunction.com also fireing pin and safety plunger in titanium, tungsten guiderod and 22lbs recoil spring, Ultimate trigger stop which you can adjust, Aluminum Trigger extended slide lever. And when you do this if you want you can also put TFO FIBER OPTIC TRITIUM SIGHTS AND why not a crimson trace laser which attaches in the back of the grip. I prommise you that if you do this when you shoot that wonderfull gun again. You will feel as if you had bought another G22.
If you want holsters that will fit this gun with flashlights and stuff go to www.blade-tech.com or www.safariland.com Best molded holsters ever used in my little over 17 years of carring guns on and off duty.

KEEP SAFE.

 

[GO!!!!!!!]

It's a new Glock..... I was shooting from 7-10 yards with both guns. place was called the Bullet Hole in Kansas City. I agree I need to work on my precision and I'm pretty damn sure I can now that I have pistol that won't misfire on every damn magazine I put through it.

 

[dralarms]

You go GO!!!. LOL glocks are fine firearms.

 

[gunseller2]

You Go LAD! I carried a Glock 17 and Glock 22 for working guns. I currently own a 17, 23, and 35. They are fine guns, stupidly simple and reliable. I have never owned or shot a HiPoint but I'm going to guess you must have felt like you traded a Chevy for a Caddy.

 

[possum]

GO!!!!!,
congrats on the glock they are fine weapons and you made a great choice. btw welcome to thr.

 

[f4t9r]

I'm sorry. Maybe next purchase will be much better

 

[hoosier8]

I have many pistols and one Glock and I would bet my life on it.

 

[GO!!!!!!!]

Thanks everyone.

I was looking at several brands including Beretta, Ruger and Smith and Wesson. I read mixed review on every brand including Glock, but I figured if the Police and Military for the most part trust Glock then I will too.

 

[R. Deckard]

I believe with a Glock 22 you can also get a conversion barrel and mags and shoot 9mm with it.

 

[GO!!!!!!!]

I knew that I could trust the Hi point to get a few hot ones through the barrel at least 7 of the 8 in the magazine , but I'd rather it fire off all of them and have more rounds....

My wife was anti guns until her car got broke into and then she felt all unsafe. So I wanted to make sure that if I have a gun that she (God forbid) ever has to use, it would go off every time she pulls the trigger.

She still isn't a big fan of guns, but she knows where it is and how to fire it. Call me crazy, but I just don't think a locked door and a cell phone to call the police with is good enough defense.

Funny, I never worried about it until I got married last year. It's interesting how that can make you re-evaluate what's most important to you and how to protect it.

 

[JT in VA]

G22s are great. Shoot as much as you can.

 

[ljnowell]

I believe with a Glock 22 you can also get a conversion barrel and mags and shoot 9mm with it.

Not only that you can get a factory glock .357 sig barrel and use the 40 cal magazines to shoot .357 sig. 3 guns in one.

Congrats on the new glock.

 

[hoghunting]

Congratulations on your new pistol. You might want to rethink the Hogue grip as I had two of them slip and twist, causing the finger grooves to be in the wrong place. I took them off and never had a problem.
