When Covid first happened and we thought it was going to be the Zombie Apocalypse, my neighbor and I ended up talking guns.
He had just sold his .38 a few weeks before the coof, and only had his...
I've used hockey tape and it's ok. Definitely better then nothing, but not a ton of traction. I still have some on my 17L as I've been too lazy to replace it, but otherwise I no longer use it for...
If it's the MLOK handguard, a MLOK GQ mount on the rearmost 9 oclock should work well.
Alternatively, I've taken to mounting slings using Zipties through MLOK slots as I had a QD swivel fail.
I wish CCI would make a polymer coated Hardcast .22lr for defense.
OSS / CIA / SOG used a special lot of FMJ .22lr that likewise would probably be better for both bone penetration and feeding...
The primary con is that even brief exposure to the AUG can result in the patient developing AUGtism, an incurable disease that causes the sufferer to spend unlimited amounts of money on ever more...
Sort of.
If you were running strictly irons, shorter sights might make sense.
But if talking Irons + RDS, its the height of the RDS that dictates whether the sights are cowitness or 1/3; the...
The Aguilla subsonic is a little slower than regular, but all of them are subsonic from pistol length barrels. Frankly I think they sell subsonic so they can charge more money for putting less powder...
This is no longer true.
Back in the day, the initial A3's had the 'military high rail' which needed shorter sights due to the height of the rail relative to the stock:

1. My 16" AR is 34.625" with the stock clicked in one position and A2 FH.
16" AUG is 28" with Tulip FH, would probably be 27.5" with a A2 length FH.
CZ Scorpion 7.78" 9mm with brace collapsed...
I've had extremely good results (0 malfunctions, 2 duds) out of over 1000rd of Aguila Super Extra HV from my G44, in 50 / 250 / 500rd boxes. Smoky but reliable with a good kick. I fired 50x of the...
I really love the PupLight Mount on mine. Mounts any 1" diameter tactical light (Surefire, Malkoff, Modlite, Armytek etc) to the gas block, perfectly positioned to be activated by the thumb when...
The newest Winchester M1152 115gr for the MHS program is basically a FMJ 9BPLE (or even a bit hotter); 115gr @ 1300fps+. Pressure of 39,700psi per Winchester.
I suspect thats about the hottest...
A bit more info from EnforceTac 2024. So far a Polish website is first to publish:

A Glock "Gen 6" that features grip angle changeable backstraps would be very welcome. It would solve one of the chief complaints some folks (myself included despite shooting glocks for 20 years) have...
Yes.

It will be interesting to see how the G49 handles, as its the G34 weight slide but a G19 spring weight.
As we covered in the G47 thread, the G47/G49 slide is surprisingly heavy, nearly the weight of the G34 slide. G34 is generally considered the smoothest recoiling pistol in Glock's lineup.
I...

Very favorable review of the Platypus. However he notes that the lack of a polymer grip makes it transfer more shock to the hand compared to polymer gripped 2011's.

Has anyone tried shooting the 47 slide on the 19 frame, ala G19L / rumored G49?
Curious how that shoots vs the 47 or a 19 with the Ramjet comp. Wondering whether it makes sense to get a 47 + a G19...
This. Accurate, soft shooting, and to my eye the coolest looking Glock.
Also if using a full size WML, they end up G34 length. And WML serves as a 'frame weight' to further mild out the recoil.
...
In terms of weight and its effect on recoil, the weight increase of the G47 vs the G17/G45 is about the weight increase of a RMR.
Has anyone noticed any change in recoil characteristics for...
Awesome, thanks man.
47 = 317.5g
34 = 324.6g
--> 7.1g difference in weight
So Glock was basically right on the money with their weight specs.
As I said earlier, it's a hypothesis of mine (a supposition or proposed explanation made on the basis of limited evidence as a starting point for further investigation). I'm not putting it forward as...
None of those.
