Little back story. Been trying to experiment with "deep" concealment with pocket sized autos. Started out with a G43, sold it because I didn't like shooting it at all. Well, I just came home with a Glock 42 with FDE frame. Trigger seems to be heavier than my other full/compact sized Glocks (which have seen range time, unlike the 42). I also picked up a box of Remington UMC 95gr ball ammo to put through it. Have a couple of questions
1. I have my old pocket holster for the G43, is that ok to use with the G42? It's a Desantis Nemesis
2. Carry ammo. Based on the Lucky Gunner tests, it seems like the 90gr Gold Dots and 90gr Sig V-Crown perform decently for being .380. The edge goes to the Sig ammo for slightly more penetration and expansion. What ammo have you all found the pistol likes?
3. Range ammo. I reload, and intend to reload for this caliber as well. Does it do ok with low to mid range ammo, or does it need to be hotter? I load my other range ammo to literally the middle of the road powder charge wise.
Thanks for the help, and here's a picture
