Title: Re: non-Colt & non-G.I. 1911's Post by butlersrangers on May 4th, 2019 at 2:59pm
I briefly owned a nice, used (like new), Glock, in .40 S&W caliber. It was a fine pistol, inexpensive, very accurate, and had 'night-sights'.
BUT .... I have that muscle memory for the 1911 (and Browning HP), that 'Whig' wrote about. The Glock felt awkward and 'high in the hand'. I had to 'overthink' everything, when shooting and field-stripping it. I thought: "I will exploit the piles of .40 S&W brass that is lying on the ground at every Range". Then I read .... The "Warnings": high pressure cartridge, unwise to reload, no cast bullets in a Glock .40 .... Oh Bother! I traded it off. It's good to keep life simple. P.S. - I have to try some of Berry's Bullets. Anyone using one of their .30 caliber projectiles in a Krag? |
