Sigs are better than Glocks !

Its not so much the hotter stuff thats the issue. I used to load a lot for an HK P7. That and a High Power. I had a load that worked well with both and never had any issues with either. Get my first Glock, and it wont get through a mag without a stoppage using the same load. So yea, depending on what your using, they may or may not be picky, and they do like the hotter stuff. Its pretty much accepted that you shouldnt use lead bullets too, although I know people who do and havent seen them loose any fingers yet. I never used them with my P7 either, and for basically the same reason. They supposedly werent good for the gas system on them either.

Back in the late 80's, Glock actually sent around a bulletin to dealers recommending the use of UZI "Black Tip" carbine ammo out of the then fairly new 17's. Apparently some people were using some ammo that was causing function problems, although I dont remember now which that was. I did personally see the bulletin though, so I know that was for real.

My current 9mm reloads are at the warmer end of the load data, and I shoot both commercial factory and NATO issue 9mm, as well as +P and +P+ out of both my 17's and 26's without issue. I have noticed that when I shoot WWB, that the brass is usually right at my feet, compared to my reloads and the NATO stuff, which is usually away from me a good bit. You can feel it when you shoot too.

the sig 210 is a rare and expensive match grade target pistol that's hand fit.

The 210 was actually the issue side arm for the Swiss military at one point.

Me too, *** is up with their registration. I'm not going to start another email account just so I can log on to SigForum. They won't take Gmail, Yahoo, Hotmail, or Comcast...what do they take?:scrutiny:
Sorry to get off topic.
BTW, I have both a W. German 226 and a G34...G34 all the way. Glock still feels like a toy though, just doesn't shoot like one.
 
seriously now.....those targets with pictures of real people on them just aint right. what ever happened to using paper plates????

It was also the issue weapon for the Danish army as the M49. Supposedly they have them in Afghanistan with the Danish army but I have yet to see a picture of them in Afghanistan with one.
 
I don't plan on getting attacked by paper plates.

I know a lot of places wont let you shoot at targets that have a likeness on them, some wont even allow the silhouettes. Most of it is political correctness and insurance company driven, but even within the gun community, they seem to draw negative responses from some people.

Where they are superior to the plain silhouette type is, they present a realistic target, in more realistic positions, and with no scored aiming points, and force you to think and look for and shoot (or maybe not shoot at all) a more realistic vital/kill zone.

Its interesting that so many of these threads get so much heat going about which gun is better, for all sorts of reasons, but when you look at how most people practice and train, and what they worry about shooting wise, it kind of makes you wonder what all the fuss is about.

shooting targets isnt combat.

Shooting small groups on a static target at fixed ranges at your leisure isnt a realistic indicator of your skills either. Shooting each other with non lethal "weapons" comes about as close as you will want to get to combat, and its an eye opener to most "static" type shooters. Force on force type training with the better airsoft type guns, or if you have access to the more "painful" and realistic alternatives, take all this to a whole different level. Shooting tight little groups on a paper target becomes pretty much meaningless. All that shows is you have the basics down.

It all depends on what you want out of what your doing. All this arguing over which is the better gun is pretty much a joke if you cant actually use the silly thing. ;)
