And what are you going to do with it?
Sig 229 is a completely different animal.

I wouldn't mind having 34/35 format for a house gun, bedside pistol. And just a nice shooter
I like that one could mount a serious light, that wouldn't extend past the muzzle.

Popped my Glock cherry today - brought home a G34 Gen 5 MOS this afternoon. Was strongly considering an M&P 2.0 with the 5" barrel, the S&W grips feel better in my hand and the pistol points well. But I rented both this morning and put 40 rounds through each. The target does not lie, I shoot the Glock a whole lot better.
The S&W trigger has a lot of take up, then you hit a wall and it's a short pull through to fire. The Glock trigger starts that pull through much sooner and is longer but for whatever reason that keeps me on target. My targets were NRA standard 25 yard slow fire bullseyes set at 7 yards just to have something to shoot at. Wasn't using rapid-rapid fire but presenting and firing just as soon as the front sight was on the 10 ring. I was bobbling shots a lot with the M&P, dropping maybe 35-40% of them low and right as much as 5" out. The Glock just chewed up the 10 and 9 rings - bang bang bang, as many rounds as I cared to fire.
Good gun.
Gunnery, gunnery, gunnery. Hit the target, all else is twaddle!

I am so glad you got popped. Most of the time I am too pooped to pop. I don't understand how you handled all that power. I am just used to the Pipsqueak mouse guns I have and cant handle anything with much more poop than a 22 RF. But then again I cant shoot either. And the Great OZ informed me I cant afford one either. I live vicariously through the adventures of the firers of the 9MM Miraculous Miracle. Great shooting at a long range at a small target too. Am happy for you.

You can't afford one regardless.

Another 100 rounds through it at a practice match last night.
Hard not to love. Getting a little faster with it each week.

Tried any of the Magpul made, Glock mags yet? I have a few & so far so good. They save a few bucks over OEM.

I'm unfamiliar with the ilk and the Model in particular. [Linked Image] Though Dick do Straight -8's right...even on a '4. [Linked Image] [Linked Image] The Magpuls are an easy pass,I've got dozens. Hint.............

It is hard for me fathom that one,of the chosen ones of the Illuminated Illuminati would not know about the Mag Pul magazines. The unfathomness of it sends me into spiral that will be hard for me to pull out of. But pull out I will. The let down of such a defeating defeat as finding out that the bright glow from the Illuminati is in need of a charge to keep it from growing dimmer and failing to be a light to the mear nothingness of the nothings like me will cause me sleepless nights and unsettleing days filled with anguishing anguish.
