Good to hear!

It’s “trigger control” only in the sense that your grip fails you as you manipulate the trigger.

As others have recommended, all I do to my Glocks is add a set of tritium night sights, rest stays stock. Have many but my favorite is my G30S.

Exactly right B, I grabbed more pistols and tested them that day too, a couple that I had drifted the rear sight right had to be drifted back center. crazy, all in the grip, I have now stippled all mags on the lower left portion that hang out of the grips, just little scrub pads for the left hand to grip firmer on, and have stippled the whole grip frame for my Glock 21, it makes all the difference, sent a pic to CHLI I shot at 50 yards braced the other day, two rounds about 2 inches apart, just kind of a quick homemade church drill, i'll take that any day from any handgun.

Same is true with revolvers too, at least in my experience.


If we live long enough, we all have regrets. But the ones that nag at us the most are the ones in which we know we had a choice.

I am happy with 2 124 Federal HST’s into 2-3 inches at 15 yards in 5-6 seconds using a P365

That'll work too jimmyp, I had the 200gr Lehigh penetrators at 1055 in the Glock, was mainly seeing if they'd print close to the 230gr Gold Dots at 966, they did, with bluedreaux's info, I'm hitting a hell of a lot more center.

My experience too lastround, the old fixed sight Colt SAA does indeed shoot center, there was a time I talked to my 'Smith about rotating the barrel. shocked, it wasn't the revolver, it was me!

Night sights are WAY overrated, but it's only money.

I don't know. In my experiences, the tritium sight are very much worth having.

I've used the tritium sights in low light/no light training. (USMC High Risk Personnel course). Jarheads to my left and right had M9s with standard sights, and we all had flashlights.

The advantage I had with tritium was enormous. I didn't really need the flashlight at all.

Without them, the flashlight can be used to get a silhouette of your sights, but it is a disadvantage. Of course nowadays with weapon mounted lights, that does change the game somewhat.

I certainly don't agree with that. There are good arguments for not using really bright tritium sights (mainly giving away your position), but night sights definitely have value.

Oh my God.

Hadn't hurt that one in a while.

Ranks right up there with the "tumbling bullet" design of the M16.

If a Good Guy were standing in total darkness aiming at an armed thug with their Nite Sight handgun and thug number two was sneeking up behind the Good Guy would it be impossible for thug number two to see those little dots on the sight and then determine where the Good Guys head is and thug number two shoot the Good Guy in the foot with his 9MM Miracle Evaporator and totally evaporate the Good Guy with a shot in his foot or anywhere from the foot to the top of his head?
Remember the 9MM Mystical Miraculous Evaporator only needs to just graze someone and they will be evaporated. Evaporation is quick.

Don't know if anyone has thrown this drill out or not. The penny drill. UNLOAD YOUR GLOCK AND TAKE OUT MAG............PRESS CHECK TO MAKE SURE UNLOADED!!!.

Put a penny on the front sight. extend and press the trigger. Penny stays on you should be good to go. Great drill for anyone.
