    Weak index finger on trigger guard / finger forward technique, pros/cons

    I shoot and compete a lot (Glock 17/19/26). I also carry 24/7 (mostly Glock 26). I found out that I control especially the Glock 26 much better in fast and multiple follow-ups like an IPSC lon course with my weak hands index finger on the trigger guard. Some tell me not to do that, but nobody...

    Video: Shot with LEO .45 and still fighting for minutes

    This video is informative: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MwqT2jQhMZo I am not posting this to bash the .45. I believe that his could happen with any (hand-)gun. But I guess this video is important to show many of us what reaction to expect when firing a (single) shot in defense: none.

    .44 Mag as a defense caliber (in 4" ultralight revolver)

    By accident I came to re-think adding another caliber to my defense handguns. The Taurus and S&W .44 Mag Ultralite 4" revolvers have about the same weight as Glocks. At least the Taurus 444 is said not to kick as badls as expected... In the Marshall etc Data, the .44 Mag is about equal with...

    Taurus Model 444 UltraLite .44 Mag vs. S&W Model 329PD

    Do you think there is a quality gap between that Taurus and that S&W revolvers? Taurus costs about half of the S&W. The Taurus is 2.3 oz heavier than the S&W. Taurus: http://www.taurususa.com/products/product-details.cfm?id=204&category=Revolver S&W...

    .44 Mag for rare carry

    Hi, I am looking for a .44 Magnum gun to let it lie in the vault and only carry it once in a while, when I was to groggy to bring my other handguns to work. I usually carry 9x19mm Glocks, compact and subcompact. So I want to carry strongside on the hip and no longer than 4" barrels. - I have a...

    Glock 19 & Glock 17: Parts #26, 23 interchanged.

    Hi, I recently cleaned my Glock 17 and Glock 19 at the same time. The Glock 19 was bought in 2004 the Glock 17 in 2006. Now, I'm afraid I interchanged the Parts # 26 (Trigger with Trigger Bar) and # 23 (Trigger Mechanism Housing with Ejector). But I'm not sure, maybe I got it right anyway...

    Glock 26 Barrel and Slide on (shortened) Glock 19 Frame?

    Hi, I carry a Glock 26 IWB and a Glock 19 OWB. With the shirt tucked over, the short Glock 26 grip slows me down when I draw from the IWB holster. So a grip-sleeve was my soluition. But it moves way too much and makes shooting weird. So I'm back to the 10+2 magzine for the Glock 26. Also just a...

    9mm vs .357 Sig (penetration, expansion, armor piercing)

    Hi there, I wonder what arguments you will come up with in that comparison for a defense/duty gun. Let's take the Glock 4" barrel platform Glock 19 and Glock 32. Which one would you prefer and why? What makes me personally doubt the benefits of the .357 Sig are e.g. the results posted on...

    Best 10mm defense round (and why)

    What would you choose as your 10mm defense round and why? I'd pick a light fast bullet because I want extreme enery transfer and low penetration (the 10mm penetrates enough anyway). So I'd go for anything like CorBon's DPX 155gr: DPX10155/20 VIEW 10 MM AUT0 155 GR. DPX 1200 FPS 496 FTLBS 4.6
