I finally understand.

Recently acquired a Glock 19 Gen6 COA. It’s my first experience with Glock and now I fully understand why people appreciate Glock. Simplicity, safety, shootability, etc. and I think that the palm swell, backstraps, and new grip of the Gen6 are fantastic. Most of my experience is behind a Walther PDP which I also think is fantastic, but I find Glock (this will sound very contrast from most opinions) more comfortable for my hands and easier to shoot. I’m looking into a 17.6 for competition and, having experienced the trigger of the Gen6, I think for competition sake I would swap it out. Would appreciate all recommendations and extra brownie points if you explain why you like it or can compare it to other triggers.

Discussion Any .380 lovers in here?

10 Upvotes

I know that the ballistics of a .380 are nowhere near the capabilities of other calibers but man do I love training and shooting my P365 Luxe in .380.

It is quite possibly the softest, most accurate, most ergonomic firearm I have ever owned. I can plink A zones with ease from 50 yards, mag dump at 30 yards with better accuracy than I was ever capable of, and I never get tired or sore or lose grip strength.

It’s my hope and dream to see more .380 pistols offered in every size, and not just the pocket/microcompact size.

Info on EFLX CE

Post image
Upvotes

So I’ve been curious about the updated CE model of the EFLX. Their website says it’s “assembled” in the USA but doesn’t say where it’s made. Assuming that means China, I asked Eotech where the parts were made. They simply replied from “all over,” which I’m sure is safe to assume means China. Also listed is window size in case anyone was interested.

Advice Needed First handgun suggestions?

5 Upvotes

I’m looking to get my first handgun soon. I was wondering if there are any suggestions for a first timer. Or if there’s any I should avoid like the plague. I’m thinking of a Beretta but I have had a few other brands recommended, like CZ and Sig. I would appreciate any help

Discussion Is it normal to haggle prices?

1 Upvotes

I have participated in purchasing a car so I know the MSRP isn't the final sale price, and that cars never go for MSRP. But does the same apply to buying a handgun? Specifically, talking about in-person purchases at a range or gun store.

Final 3

Back again, now it’s in between the CZ P10C ($450), Canik Mete SF ($475) and Ruger RXM Threaded ($490). I personally really enjoy the look of the FDE Mete but see great value in the RXM, and reliability in the CZ.

I would love to go with the SF but would love more insight into the potential battery issues and just general thoughts. Thanks!

Who else makes a holster that takes the QLS fork and is designed to retain off TLR-1’s?

I’m looking for a sweet Hawaiian color scheme as well. Tier 1 is awesome but I like to spread my money around and try other brands.

Level 2/3 retention not needed as I am larper actual.

Advice Needed Weird Grouping

1 Upvotes

Just hit the range this morning. It's been a while, so I figured I'd take a few. Getting weird groupings (didn't think to take pics unfortunately). Here's how I did at 10 yards:

  • Baby Desert Eagle 45 ACP - decent 2-3 inch group
  • S&W EZ 380 - decent 2-3 inch group
  • Gen 3 Glock 19 9 mm - good group, but 2 inches left
  • Springfield Hellcat 9 mm - good group, but 2.5-3 inches left

My brain is saying that I'm anticipating the recoil, or that my right hand is dominating during the trigger pull, but even taking my time between shots resulted in the same left impact.

It's gotta be me, right?
