    I stopped at the gun store today
    After looking at dozens of guns
    I couldn't find anything I wanted or needed I have plenty of full-size guns
    I just bought another compact g3c
    IMG_20200929_153627.jpg
    It's as accurate as the first one IMG_20200929_154002.jpg I really like these little guns
    As accurate and as well built
    anything I've tried.
    There's tons of reviews on YouTube.

    For my birthday I bought myself a
    .40 compact 2.0 IMG_20200930_162837.jpg IMG_20200930_162755.jpg i'm done for now lol
    I found the perfect pistol for me
    Extremely accurate with a great trigger
    That was out of the box
    75ft with federal 180gr fmj.
    Eventually I'll get a .45 compact 2.0

    So you like the m&p 2.0 over the g3c? How many does that 40 hold? Those are some great groups...

    Personally yes
    It's a larger more comfortable to shoot platform for me
    13rnd flush fit 15rnd extended.
    Basically all m&ps are the same pistol
    With different slide/barrel and grip lengths.
    I actually have the same pistol already lol
    About 10 year's ago
    I bought the m&p .40c 10rnd flush fit and bought a factory 9mm barrel
    And mags 12rnd flush fit.
    I liked it but the grip was too short
    And harder hang onto to shoot well
    This new one is 1/2 longer grip
    That's all the difference to make it comfortable for me.
    It is heavier and larger than the g3c
    So it's easier to shoot
    The g3 is surprisingly accurate for a little pistol.
    Just a bit harder to shoot as well for me
    It's tiny and the trigger breaks
    Too far back for my big finger's.
    Everyone's different and have different preferences of course.
    I actually went to look at gen5 23 glocks
    No way would I ever pay 700.00 + taxes
    For a freaking glock lol

    I'm glad I didn't get into competition gun's
    Lol
    I couldn't afford it
    The ipsc guy's I talked to have thousands in a pistol and thousands in ammo.
    I always shot combat pistols
    Some are suprisingly accurate.

    Ive been contemplating finding a new ccw. Currently its a kahr cm9 in a small waistband holster, but it typically goes in my front pocket. I would like something a bit larger with more rounds. Kahr is 6+1. I have an xd in 40 but its big for me to cc. Everything else is larger than the xd. So you've got my interesest piqued in the g2/3c.

    I like the Kahr my friend hated his
    Wish I would've bought it
    Cw9 the trigger didn't bother me
    Very accurate.

    Check out the competition i looked at a springfield hellcat Glock 43
    Sig something and FN something lol
    Compact guns I know little about.
    But essentially 2 G3c can be bought
    For the price of the others
    Very near the same size and features.
    It would be nice if there were more
    Rental ranges.
    So people can try before buying.
    Smith m&p and Glock subcompacts in name only are chunks of Pistols
    Compared to modern subcompacts.

    They were new in box too.
    The things on my radar as far as pistols
    Eventually a Kahr ct45 that's supposed to take certain 1911 magazines.
    A compact m&p .45 and a compact 9mm version both with thumb safety's I like them for my hold.
    Not as safety's lol
    No hurry I'll sell a few and buy some eventually.

    Seems very well made
    Great trigger. IMG_20201003_160050.jpg Springfield armory 1911 .45 milspec
    Horrible trigger but I can fix that if he wants.

    When you go by czed I thought you would have a fleet of cz’s. I only have two currently, a po9 40 and p10s. My next will be a 75d pcr, but it’s looking like I’ll have to drive to sevierville to get one.

    Back when czs were 300.00 new
    I love hammer fired cocked and locked pistols and should've bought a stack of them.
    But now I'd love to have a p01 or phantom pistol
    But near 700.00 no thanks lol
    Canik 55 stingray was a p01 clone from turkey I tried to find one but never did
    They were 250.00 not imported anymore.
