some of us are just weird and shoot Glocks better... should give it a try
I did today...It sucked...hated the trigger, felt like a 2x4 in my hand...It also shot 10" low from 15 yards....for everyone that shot it...I will stick to the M&P. I also owned one for about a month.
I really enjoyed the Kimber though. I just wish they were cheaper and didn't have all that safety stuff on it.
Thanks for the kind words!
I think we may know each other, but I don't place the name yet. I was shooting USPSA and all of the other matches at Coal Creek from about 1995 until we lost the range back to the City of Veedersburg. We definitely know some of the same people via DCF in Cayuga.
Alright, for the record, Mike fired one round from the Glock, I'm not sure that constitutes a fair evaluation, to make a review. I will say, that this Glock did shot unexpectedly low with 165gr FMJ, Winchester white box.
I believe much the same. I am certain our paths have cross, and I am almost certain we have shot on the same dates at Coal Creek, but for the life of me I can't recall. I have even asked Darrel to jog my memory, and he says "oh yeah, you know him". Hopefully at some point, it will just "click" for both of us. I look forward to shooting with you guys this summer.
Oh, the Kimber. I should start a whole thread on the Kimber Super Carry Pro. I have shot a lot of pistols over the years and this was by far the best one yet. I want one.
one round... lol.
He must have felt the dark side (like Luke in the cave) and ran!
Literally. One round.

I shot it fairly well too. Must be something with those Kimbers. I'm not ready to sell everything to buy one...but...It was the cleanest shooter Sunday.downrange72

I've owned one...it didn't last very long...that one round with that trigger and the way it felt was enough to remind me.
I'm going to have one and I'm selling everything I can. Hey.... You need a kidney or anything?

oh come on, you put a new trigger in the m&p
at least try one through my g35 with the vanek
heh, I don't blame you. I think the m&p feels better in the hand but I think the recoil in the Glock is softer.

I haven't changed the trigger spring yet. Just the reset and sear. It is still in the bag in my vehicle.
1. consistently hitting to the left of where I'm aiming.
2. with both my Glocks.
3. Is there a common mistake that tends to put your rounds to the left
Seems pretty obvious to me.
May be some 1911 owners could help you out with some advice on this.

I own both.. what are you getting at?
It could be too much or little finger on the trigger, depending on how large or small his hands are.
It could also be the weak hand grip, many people don't have their weak hand aligned correctly, with their thumb in line with the wrist, so that both thumbs are pointing forward.
It could also be that they are over-gripping with their strong hand, instead of letting the weak hand take about 60% of the grip.
I never thought of that. It all makes sense to me now. I'd heard that is common for Glock owners to do all of that only with their Glocks. I think it's a design flaw in the plastic most likely poor shooting skills ooze from them and are absorbed through the skin. It's been known to cause Glock experts to shoot themselves in the foot during classroom demonstrations when it reaches extreme saturation with Glock poisoning.

I have lurked in this thread for a while and have resisted posting until now...
Perhaps if you started listening to talk radio, you would start leaning to the right and center up on the target??
