A smoking deal, Glock 22 .40 cal, 3rd Gen Nights sights.

the 19 is good, love the 17, but for fun shooting "steel" , , the 34 is my handsdown favorite. Good balance for the double/triple tap, accurate and just a pleasure to shoot!

Every google search or gun expert pointed to the Glock20   
I begrudgingly purchased it.  Right out if the box I was nailing the 10 ring at 7yrds, then 15  all the way down to 25yrds I was in the Black!   Boy was I happy.  Was my woods gun for the last 2 years till I bought the smaller G29 that weighs half.

Weighs half?
G20: 27.7oz
G29: 24.7oz

10mm is my choice for a woods gun. Hard to beat the overall firepower.

Oh let's get all technical lol

G20  =27.7oz
16rds  230gr @ 20g =11.993oz

Total not counting larger holster and 2nd mag (if ya carry). 39.693oz

G29 =24.7oz
10rds 230gr @20g = 7.054oz

Total 31.754oz

So not quite Half, but fully loaded, the Amo makes a huge difference

My brother in law just bought the glock 22 yesterday..i won't be to far behind getting mine

Like the Glocks...LOVE the M&P!!!!!!! Better fit to the hand, just as reliable, (ran my m&p compact .40 over 2000 rounds without cleaning), and esthetically a better looking piece. And a higher web of the hand fit...leads to a very controllable pistol!

I glanced a M&P's way one time, that's as far as it went.

I shot 1911s almost exclusively and carried them as well until I went to work somewhere that required the carry of a Glock 22.  I pissed and moaned until we went to familiarize with them.  They were easy to clean and easy to deal with.  On the range, they performed great.  The only malfunctions were from limp wrists.  We even had to shoot at 50 yards and they did great. 

I was pretty impressed and liked how easy it was to bring to bear when stress was added to the drills and force-on-force courses.  You'd be surprised how many people in force-on-force training get hit a couple times before they remember to take their safeties off.  Poor or lack of training can get you killed and the Glock just simplifies the equation with their design. 

I still have a 1911 and it sits by the bed for the most part.  I am a desk jockey now and don't carry at work, but I did end up buying a Glock 19 for when I wear enough clothing to hide it.

I have to agree with Biggerhammer. I hated Glocks, was always a fan of the 1911. I owned a few 1911's. Then I was issued a Glock and went through weeks of range training. Now I would take a Glock over any other pistol for any situation where my life depended on it. I sold my 1911's. Glock has been proven for over 30 years in combat all over the world. Not to say the 1911 has not been proven, it has. But the Glock is much more reliable.

And I also agree that Tikkas suck. I have one and I'm currently looking for it's replacement....ugh

[dscubame]

I still find it very amusing that Littlehammer Big Truck loves the plastic glock but hates on the Tikka every chance he gets.  The Tikka and Glock are like brother and sister.

Brother and sister like they get about the same accuracy?

Maybe if Glocks rolled out of the FNH factory.
Give the guy a break, he has probably never heard of Sako and isn't familiar with high performance rifles.
I remember him mentioning a Rem700 purchase recently so he sets the bar pretty low.
Baby steps.

Haha! Your quite the clown Dinkyman.

Speaking of quality, happened upon this today.😉

Curious about a range report for the new sig Hammer. Ive been looking to get into the 1911 game for a while and have been very impressed with the sigs.
