papaacGlock26…your thoughts???
I had a G26 Gen 4, but never warmed up to it. I have 2 G19, a G45 and a G48

That is crazy talk. The easiest way to learn Dodgeball is to play Dodgeball.

My time on the same shot with iron sighted Shadow 2, Bladetech, and 9 lbs DA trigger clicked between 1.67 and 1.83.
Those shots outta appendix with a dot and sub-5.0 trigger Glock were about 2.4. That wasn't as embarrassing as the amount of lint on that front sight. Fortunately, I was alone...
Obvious conclusion: I need to forget that CCW pretense and just open carry the Shadow

Not enough time for everything, not enough time.

jljonesHave you ever ran apples to apples with a G17 or 34? To see what your times are?
The numbers don’t lie when you throw in the timer. And figuring out the why always fascinated me.

YVKNope, not with those. I don't have any full size Glocks. Glocks are the defensive guns for me and I can barely conceal a G19 to my concealment requirements.
I love figuring small things out too; maybe one day I'll get enough time to play with G26 vs G19. There is a dude who I consider a pretty decent authority on G26 technical shooting; he reported 10+% performance reduction vs G34.
The only recent comparison that I have done was G26 vs G43x/G48. I didn't write the numbers down but the outcome was very little difference in peak-to-peak numbers but higher consistency for G26.

jljonesNumbers don’t lie. I really dig that kind of data.

GT1996I love the G26. I have fat hands and have problems with the little skinny sized grips on subcompact pistols that are the rage these days. Plus, you can carry the full size mags for backup.
