The focal point for Texas firearms information and discussions

I'm another person in the same group as you are. I've pointed Glocks before and the sights just seem to be "off" when I point it. I have to consciously align them far more than other pistols that I have pointed. I am NOT sure about the Gen 4 Glocks because I have not tried one of those. My Ruger SR9c points well for me; so does the basic Springfield 1911 I own. I don't pretend to understand the engineering or ergonomics of how a grip fits the human hand. I just know if something works for me or doesn't work for me.Salty1 wrote:I strongly suggest you shoot a Glock before buying one. To myself and many others the grip angle on them is a deal breaker. I am not willing to change the way I shoot and cock my wrist for the sights to properly line up, on all my other guns when I raise the firearm up the sights are aligned and it is simply squeeze the trigger, with a Glock I need to move my wrist to move the front sight down for proper sight alignment. That could be because I first learned to shoot handguns in the military and they were 1911's and this old dog does not need any new tricks.Bang4Buck wrote:No kidding. In fairness, I have never shot a Glock. I'm going based on simple reputation, and they have a reputation for reliability, which is more important than anything.puma guy wrote:Do you move from one side of the table to the other while you were having this argument?My advice ... the one you shoot the most consistently and feel the most comfortable carrying. Adjust as necessary for given the situation/attire.
