Title: Pocket Pistol
Post by: FX1 on October 12, 2015, 11:34:13 PM
Just purchased a glock 43 and installed a pair of night sights with a ghost 3.5 connector. If anyone is in the market i would highly recommend a 43. Shot a couple bowling pin matches and also a large boar with it while i was bow hunting this weekend. I own 4 glocks and this one might be my favorite. Fits in my sunglasses case in the truck and i can also just drop it in my pocket.

You must have big pockets. :)
Glocks are really reliable and good shooting guns, if they were DA/SA with a decocker I'd be all over them.

Reminds me of my 27 in .40.
One night my pouch slipped off the back of a truck. One was in the chamber and the only sound was the impact clunck against the ground. Yeah decocking would be nice, you just learn to clear the round after ejecting the magazine. Or don't rack the slide. Fortunately I no longer have to carry anything.

Check out the Bersa BP9CC. That will be my next purchase.

I had a bersa for a long time and ended up giving it away. On that model you could change out the front sights. Very interesting pistol I like that it has a light rail and also a full grip.

Bersas are underrated, I think because they're inexpensive people tend to turn their nose up at them. But they are great guns, especially their 380s, the bersa thunder plus is the best on the market in my opinion.

Have you guys seen this? Basically it says what we've always known deep down inside. Shootability and shot placement is way more important than caliber.

Bersa trigger is sweet IMO the Double action is a little long but if the hammers back its short and crisp (Bersa Thunder)
The BP9CC has a really good trigger too. Both front and rear sights can be changed. I like the size for carrying and the serrations on the slide arent bad either. The grip isnt the best but for a $350 9mm I havent felt better.

I'm really liking that bersa but that 22 magnum is so loud, it deafen you and decrease your effectiveness in battle.

On a DA/SA pistol the DA trigger pull is supposed to be long because it's effectively the safety.

I don't think people carrying single action .22 revolvers with one finger grips are worrying about battle effectiveness.
For those who are so concerned NAA makes a black powder version lmao. (http://northamericanarms.com/media/CapBall/cbaccNEW.jpg)
My point is that a single shot is enough to deafen you to the point of not being able to hear much of anything.

Well i had another test with my g43 this weekend. This time it didn't go so well. Shot a pig but no retrieval and a jam on the second shot. I was testing a buddies bunk hand loads that he gave me. Lesson learned for the 100's time don't trust reloads from your buddy that doesn't hunt.
More than likely its dead. Sun was going down and i wanted to see the super pack that had been coming into another tank.
