I spent a couple of hours at MRA today with my buddy, shooting his G23's and S&W PC1911. As usual, I'm all over the map with the Glock. No clue why, but I don't shoot that pistol well naturally ... it takes a lot of concentration for some reason. The 1911, however, is a different story. I'm in the 9 or 10 ring nearly every time at 10 yards. Fine, it's a Performance Center, but I can't get CLOSE to that accuracy with the Glock. Another gentleman at the range happened to have a Sig P239 (in .40), and I shot that nearly as well as I did the 1911. Good news is I don't*totally* suck at
In a couple of months, I'm going to be getting my license and, subsequently, my first handgun. Clearly, the Glock is not for me. I got to wondering if the grip angle of the 1911 was just more natural to me ... anyone know if the Sig's grip angle is similar to the 1911?
Any recommendations for a pistol that's good for concealed carry, has a grip similar to a 1911 and is under about $800? I'm a big guy, but I don't think I could pull off concealing a full-size 1911. I know S&W has a sub compact 1911, but that's out of my price range.
Love these forums, thanks in advance for your input!
