Pistols
Re: Pistols
What else do you use for home defense, carry, shoot, etc.?
Although my most fun gun is my 870, there are other guns I definitely enjoy to use. I usually carry concealed my Solo CDP or my Sig P938. Although there are times I do carry my S&W 642ct or my LCP.

Re: Pistols
Very nice kentactic! I shot mine for the first time today. It did ok. I need to practice with it more. I had one malfunction. But I believe it was resulting from the magazine I was using at the time. I was using one of my glock 17 mags. But overall it was a good day with it. Recoil was very manageable, very easy to shoot, and being familiar with glocks made it feel right at home in hand.

Re: Pistols
That's odd. Compact & subcompact Glocks shouldn't have any reliability issues with magazines from larger models. Was your Glock 17 magazine an aftermarket one?ponycarman wrote: I had one malfunction.

I'm a huge Smith & Wesson fan, and I've owned Springfield XDm, Glocks and I prefer my M&P 40. I've had some of the apex tactical upgrades installed (DCAEK kit, and polymer AEK trigger) and the gun's dynamics have changed, it's more accurate and has a much better trigger pull. I also have trijicon HD sights as well

Re: Pistols
It was a factory mag. I'll do some more testing with it. My mag spring might be getting a little weak. That was the only malfunction so I don't know what was up. I'm planning to shoot it some more this coming weekend. I've got another 100 rnds I can put through it. Also when I was using the 17 mag it didn't want to lock back on the last round for me. I believe that was my problem not the pistol. I have a bad habit of resting my thumb near the slide release. I'm having to lean to readjust my grip.Synchronizor wrote:That's odd.

Re: Pistols
If it feels weak, it might just need to be cleaned. When's the last time you took it apart and got all the dust/lint/powder residue out?

Re: Pistols
I don't think I've had the mags apart since I bought it a few years ago. They stay in a nightstand drawer. I may take them apart to make sure. I need to get some more mags anyways. I was using the 17 mag in it as just an extra mag. Didn't even load it all the way full.
