Went to the range today and fired my new Glock23 side byside with my Glock19. The G23 is a hand cannon. I was not ascomfortable to shoot as the G19. I wasn't quite as accurate with the 23,but it was close. Although hopefully it will never have to be used onanything but targets, I didn't buy the G23 to use it as a target pistol. It will be my new Concealed carry gun. I also took my recently acquiredGlock17. It worked as advertised.
One of my AF buddies went through Active Threat Responseafter the shooting at Fort Hood. I was telling me they taught him toshoot one handed with the gun sidewise to a 45 degree angle so as to keep theother hand free to ward off bystanders. I thought this was just someHollywood gangsta crap, but was how they were actually teaching officers toshoot when the situation called for one handed shooting. I gave it a tryand my accuracy didn't suffer much. A good sight picture is agood sight picture no matter the angle of the pistol. It was acomfortable way to shoot.
