Range Report
This is my Glock m23. There are many like it but this one is mine.
Rapid fire at 15 yards. I can do better when I practice regularly. I have been too busy the past few weeks to shoot.
These are not mine. I rented them from the range because I wanted to try them out. On top is the new S&W M&P (Military and Police) in .40S&W.
On the bottom is the Glock m21 in .45 ACP.
I liked both of them. The S&W fits the hand very well. The Glock is a bit big for my hand, but the larger frame spreads out the recoil making it very controllable.
I think that the Glock 21 would fit my hand well enough if it had the grip reduction offered by the Cylinder & Slide Shop.
The M&P has the awful internal lock that Smith is putting on all their pistols now. I hate the very idea of those things, but it seems that all of the gun companies are going in that direction. So far Glock is offering the lock as an option. They are not trying to shove it down the public's throat. Another reason why Glock is one of the best gun companies out there.
This is the S&W at 25 yards. I shot that gun first to warm up so I wasn't as good with it as I was with the .45.
The picture of the target that I shot with the Glock didn't turn out well so you'll have to take my word for it.
