Yep, I'm addicted.
Found this at a pawnshop for $179.
It only has one mag.

Well, it ate every round I put through it.
It never jammed even when I fired it as fast as I could and from different positions.

It's taking the place of the wife's aging 6 round .380.

Probaby a good idea to stick with standard pressure ammo for that one.

Yep, I'm feeding it 124gr standard pressure. 1165/fps
The PPS got 147 Golden Sabers.
+P is too much for her anyway.

It's the wife's door gun now. She can work the safety and pull the trigger.

11,675 FPS should be adequate for self defense.

Holy carp! That's 10x the speed of sound!

Ugh 1165...


It's made in Bainbridge GA.
I used to live there and work at the newspaper back in the 80s.

You need spare magazines.

They're selling pistol magazines in a "2pak".

Next size up is six magazines, and that's called a Biggie Smalls.

Cool!

Looks like luck is on your side.

2 Pack... Biggie Smalls... AAHAHAHAHAHAHA!


Well I WAS eyeing G19 just because.
The Canik intrigued me too.

I have 7 of those and they are good to go. I find good mag deals on AR15 and surprisingly gunbroker. Also P226 mags fit it too.

That is not a wheel I want to see.

I had to look it up, a G3. I do think it’s interesting that it can use 226 mags. Smart idea.

I believe his is actually the G2C.

The G3C incorporates Glock sights and comes with three mags instead of two.

People can laugh all they want, but these little pistols are surprisingly good, and they have a devoted following. They are reminiscent of a strange mix of a G26 and a Shield.

The one I had was very reliable and shot where I was pointing.

I understand the Glock, the S&W, the Sig may all be better choices. But are they two or three times better? Because that's the price difference.

New G3s all day from $249 or so. Used G2C or G3C in the sub 200 range.

Side note, if you have a kydex Glock 26 holster and a hair dryer, you can make a G2 or 3C holster.

They are nice for lazer practice, since it has restrike capability.
Just keep pulling the trigger and it goes bang, bang, bang!

Yes it's a G2C.
I couldn't find a used G3 anywhere.

Yes but mine are the G3C. I have $226 into each. Price was too good to pass up.

Yes, they are QUITE the bargain.
I did the Taurus trigger job on it this morning.
Took all the grit out of it.
My wife can make it work, it chambers every round so that's all I care about.

Oh and it has second strike capability.

With 12, she has plenty if she misses.


Oh it has adjustable sites too!

Do not be ashamed. I found a GX4 at a price I couldn't refuse. That dang thing RUNS, and Runs and runs.

How are things in Beaumont these days?

Beaumont, Texas is the first place on this planet I have memory of.
