You have a Pro now, right? How are you digging it versus your others?

I'm enjoying the Limited Pro.  For the most part, its been reliable.  It just handles very warm loads with ease, and doesn't beat the shooter up doing it.  For the range, its my favorite pistol.  Best trigger, most accurate, points very natural for me, and since I'm a shiny with wood fan, its my prettiest pistol too.  Grip fits better than the Glock.  Sights are better.

The Gen4 G20 has been very reliable since I put it back to stock configuration too.  It hates feeding Underwood 220 Hard cast, but has consumed all the rest I've tried without a failure.  It is a fighting pistol, far easier to tear down, easy to rack and clearing jams is easy because the slide is easy to get a hold of and the ejection port is huge.  Factory sights suck.  Who thought up the field goal post rear sight should be drop kicked through it.  The sucker is hard on brass when loaded warm.  More than one variety of Underwood produces smiles and that makes me uncomfortable.

Bottom line is the Glock is a functional, simple, ugly but gets the job done pistol.  If, god forbid, I am forced into a gun fight, and if my Limited Pro and Gen4 G20 were side by side fully loaded, I pick up the Glock.

If I'm at the range, or in the field and i'm going to blow up a couple hundred rounds, Tanfoglio all the way!!!!

Now for the new kid, and why I want it to work.  The G20/G27 series pistols are just so darned thick across the slide and grip that its hard for me to get comfortable wearing it.  Its a big old block of pistol.  The compact witness is heavier, but much slimmer, and the compact is a good compromise of size vs accurate.  When it runs, It is a sweetie.  I want it as a carry, but I must get the issues ironed out first!
