OH NO...I shoot my XD Sub Compact better than my Full Size Glock 17 (Pics)

Well, the thread title kinda says it all. I've put almost 14,000 rounds thru my Glock 17, and I love the thing, only 3 ammo related malfunctions that whole time.

However, here's the results of my latest range trip.

CZ-75B, Glock 17, XD-SC: All at 7 yards, 15 rounds each target


The XD-sub compact is a 3 inch gun that I've only put 600 rounds thru, and already I'm better with it than I am with the Glock!

XD-SC at 15 yards, rapid fire


Glock 17 at 15 yards, rapid fire

Either way the target is dead, dead, dead,

Either way the target is dead, dead, dead,

True enough.

Nice job with the XDSC, although honestly that CZ75 and it's target are distracting me.

^ yeah, I love my CZ too. For nightstand and glovebox duty, it bumps the glock into the safe most of the time. With a CZ the bullets just seem to go pretty much where I want them to.

It's dead all in one spot with the CZ.

I like the grip angles on the XD and CZ.

A small part of me wants to sell/trade my G17 towards a Springfield XD-5 inch Tactical or an XDm 4.5 incher that I know I'll shoot better, but then good sense takes over and I realize that I still shoot my Glock17 "well enough" and the damn thing is DEAD NUTS reliable.

I just can't trade away a gun that's been essentially perfect for almost 14,000 rounds. And it was the 2nd pistol that I bought, goes back to 2004, a lot of guns have come and gone since then...but the Glock remains. It will continue.

I have found that the sub compacts like the XD or the 26/27 shoot as well or better than the full sized guns. Maybe a short, stiff barrel, not sure.

Good shooting though...
