Title: Range Report: Glock 29 Gen 4 (just shot it first time)
Post by: Buckeye 50 on November 18 2014 05:34:38 PM MST
Well, I am in the middle of moving but FINALLY snuck some range time in just about an hour ago.  Keep in mind my reference is my full size Glock 20 G4, souped up.  Here are my observations:

- Awesome
- Felt/perceived recoil seemed very similar to my G20
- At times I was very accurate, others I had more flyers than normal.  I am thinking this MAY be because of the shorter barrel, as I usually shoot longer barrels??? (thoughts)
- No downsides
- FINALLY, found my carry gun

Interestingly, the barrel is not THAT short (approx. 3.8").  So the loss of speed in the tables I have seen is not that dramatic.  I will have no concern about shooting Underwood or DoubleTap in it.

Ordered new sights which are supposed to be here next Monday or so.  Probably will get a trigger job.

The G29 is the best overall gun out there. Its concealable, effective and you can change out barrels to fire the 357 Sig and .40 without changing magazines.

Best platform out there.

Glad you like it.
Love mine.
I think the 29 is probably the most versitile carry out there.
Between the range of ammo and magazines and barrels, what's not to like!

Fyi lonewolf recently added 6" long flock 29 barrels.  Showing out of stock at the moment.  Must get.

I just put a KKM compensated barrel on my G29, sweet.

I have a KKM for my Glock 20 and really like it as well.  While unscientific, it inspires confidence and I THINK  ::) I shoot better with it????!
