Pistols will be doing just fine at 40 yards. The shooters, OTOH, will be struggling
I must admit i picked up a glock in the gun shop ,was looking at it , Actually thought i liked it .
messed around with it a bit , my buddy behind the counter picked up a beretta and slapped the out of me . that brought me back to my senses ..
thats funny... while i look at your avatar and notice the one and only gun in it is a glock :fawk:
Yeah, I would give it away to if the KABOOM tore all the flesh of my hand like that too. :moon:
You are referring to a true "combat pistol" not defensive pistol I am assuming. 40 meters is not defensive range.... That said, any pistol is going to be having issues at that range. Now my Glock 20 with DT 10MM will reach out there though. Glock's are one of the most accurate platforms I have shot
Yes sir, a combat pistol in a small size. Is it possible?
In my past area of assignments, i was in "fieldwork" i was harassed/pursued by rebels/hostiles, i just engaged them in gun burst, escape, evade them, then engage them again when i got in contact. But that had been in 10 to 50 meters rural setting. And those experiences had been with a full size 1911.
The term "defensive range" may have a different meaning here in my place. Even at 40 meters could become defensive range for us here if we hit the human target.
Now i am in a more peaceful area of assignment, i still practice on the drill (Engage, Escape, Evade, Engage). So i'm thinking if its possible with the Glock 27?
Thank you sir.
Glocks are angled wrong.
How can you make such a blanket statement? Given how my hands are designed, Glocks have the perfect angle. I can pick and point my Glock, then close my left eye and be right on target. With my CZ-52, the front sight is lower and I have to bring it up in between the rear sight. I have have other guns like the Glocks that are natural pointers in _my_ hands...to me, their grip angles are great.

Yes in that context, the 1911 has served many soldiers for decades as a combat pistol—quite efficiently. I suppose it all boils down to what you train with. I prefer my Glock 20 10MM over the Sig Pro 2340. I just love that flat trajectory and 630+ ft/lbs of energy! I haven't shot the G27 so I don't know how well she handles however.
Russian Army carried the Makarov for how long?
