I have the Glock .357 SIG barrel for my .40 Gen4 G22; I've been really pleased with it. When I initially got it, I was a bit concerned about POA/POI, and the OEM G31 rear sight as the G31 comes from...
Unfortunately, the PX4 was a relative latecomer, and those interested in a Beretta .40 more probably tried the 96 (which pretty much proved the axiom, "Merely putting a .40 barrel and .40 magazines...
My 2 HKs (P30L V1.5 LEM and VP40) are two of the best guns fort me achieving a natural index with-both intrinsically and honed in with the tailorability of the backstraps and side panels. Plus their...
I prefer the shorter action .308 over the .30-06 longer actions generally, although both are excellent cartridges. I really like my .308 chambered CZ 550 FS, and normally shoot classic Hornaday 150...
I use the Critical Duty (and Gold Dots) in .45 ACP, but prefer the Gold Dots in 9mm. However, the Critical Duty is a great alternative choice, in my opinion. Hornaday makes excellent ammunition.

We'll see. Frankly, the OEM High Power simply isn't all that hard to carry, so it'll be interest to see how this sells, and of course how it's priced. Inherent quality (and pricing) will likely be...
I don't have one, but off the cuff I'd endorse the Beretta M22/.22 92 conversion kit. The DA/ DA/SA trigger skills are transferrable in a beneficial way to your striker fired systems.

I'll hold out for the Buntline version, with a QR sling....

If the Magpul grips/grip specifications work, the VCD Practitioners definitely will. Highly recommended.

I'd check out (pun intended-wait for it...) Check-Mate's Extended Tube, Skirted/dimpled follower, extra-strength spring, Hybrid feed lipped magazines.

Guys, after much experimentation, I've concluded that the best set of grips for grippiness for my High Power are a set of RDIH polymer grips from BH Spring Solutions, which are then subjected to...
Good to see I'm not the only one in p-f going with asymmetric left and right grips, with function trumping aesthetics...

Matty, that's an excellent review of the P239. Actually, ALL of your reviews on that site are well worth a read. Thanks for the link/rabbit hole....
Best, Jon
I'll also suggest that the Action 4 testing might have been done in a relatively condensed test period, before pressure on the feed lips over time could have occurred and affected the P225/P6 guns...
And today, an HK P30L LEM is a pistol that I'm qualified on and use for duty, competition (IDPA/ASI) and EDC/home defense. I consider it to have equal ergos with the P225 and a far superior...
P30, you cited an anecdotal friend using a P6. I asked you some specific questions that might provide some clarification; hopefully you can query him regarding them.
I'll respectfully suggest...
Ask him how he trained, and with what weapons did he train with (individual issue or organizational/range provided. Ask specific questions about magazines-did he train with individual issue...
In that niche, at the price points the guns that we're discussing are at, I think I'd rather just get a good Walther P5 and a set of Hogue rubber or Nill walnut grips and 5 magazines and a decent...
Agreed. It's quite good, just lacking the exquisite ergos of the P225....But a far better choice for "real world" actual use for that platform niche.
Arguably the best niche choices would be a...
I normally ran Federal 9 BP 9mm standard pressure 115 gr in mine, but also Cor-Bon 115 gr +P as I recall. A more pointed bullet and/or a 124 gr or 147 gr might resolve things, but I'm skeptical. ...
Sigh. I ran a P225 for a significant period from about 1992 to about 2006 or so. The ergos of the gun are exquisite, and it's a joy to carry. Triggerpull can be nicely massaged as well, but only...
And potentially caliber and barrel lengths.

In my particular area (Pacific Northwest/Washington State), where the primary 4-leggged concerns are black bear and mountain lion/cougar, I'm fine with .357 magnum; my choice is Ruger GP100 or...
It mostly depends upon the profile of the grip safety chosen. Easily accomplished with the abbreviated tang of a standard "GI" profile grip safety (available optionally when purchasing the kit) (by...
Looks eminently doable; remove the lever, which is retained on the axle by a driftable pin, remove safety from gun, file down the protruding flange attachment point, dress, apply cold blue, and...
