Recently I was astounded at how much better my accuracy was when I switched from M&P9 to CZ 75. The groups were roughly 50% smaller at any given distance.]]> Pistols Ds J https://systemz.online/community/pistols/striker-fired-pistols-and-accuracy https://systemz.online/community/pistols/pistol-belt-clip-any-experience Tue, 29 Jul 2025 12:56:51 +0000 Pistols Ds J https://systemz.online/community/pistols/pistol-belt-clip-any-experience https://systemz.online/community/pistols/die-heel-kleintjie-asb-pappa Thu, 20 Feb 2025 11:59:04 +0000
Ek het 'n. 22 pistool en geweer, en enkele ander handige vuurwapens, maar hulle vat konsekwent en sonder uitsondering altyd eers "die kleintjie".

Why do my kids prefer the Baby Browning copy above all other firearms?]]> Pistols Ds J https://systemz.online/community/pistols/die-heel-kleintjie-asb-pappa https://systemz.online/community/pistols/feg-r61-9mmk-shooting-high Sun, 15 Sep 2024 09:23:07 +0000 I was at the range today and noticed that my pistol was shooting high. I thought it was just me, not having shot it in a while, but my daughter came and told me that she experienced the same and she normally shoots it quite accurately. Could it be a worn spring or something else?]]> Pistols Mohamed https://systemz.online/community/pistols/feg-r61-9mmk-shooting-high https://systemz.online/community/pistols/ruger-mk-1-slamfire Wed, 20 Dec 2023 14:09:15 +0000
It has happened to me twice, despite meticulous cleaning and rigorous oiling.

The only thing I did not clean, simply to stay clear from completely stripping the pistol, is the trigger spring plunger.

Could this be the bugger?]]> Pistols Ds J https://systemz.online/community/pistols/ruger-mk-1-slamfire https://systemz.online/community/pistols/mid-1950s-hi-standard-supermatic-citation Wed, 24 May 2023 01:44:56 +0000
It is by far the most finely built firearm I own and is basically factory new. There's hardly even any bluing worn off the breech face. The adjustable weight trigger is currently set to 'telepathic' so I will wind it in a bit. Can't wait to get it out to the range to do a bit of plinking.

For those unfamiliar with them, the brake and underslung muzzle weights are removable and it is the same model that was used to win gold for the US in rapid fire at one of the 1950's Olympics.

Then a few friends had close calls and the Durban riots arose. A friend used 5 shots in a confrontation, another 6 shots keeping attackers at bay. The Durban riots then came along and with the help of a few private video's, I realized the need for only 5-6 shots was a thing of the past.

I started May last year, just trying weapons for feel and carry feel, when I found one I went home researched it  and put it on the yes or no list. I very quickly ended up with a few Glock options and one or two CZ options, the Glock won the final list with pretty much 4 weapons top of list.
I wanted 12 - 15 rounds ability as high on list, concealability for MY lifestyle and parts that were available over the counter. Resistance to rust and weight were also factors.

The Glock 19 won in the end.

I did test carry it and I had shot one before, but I am battling with carry and draw now that it is a matter of everyday carry, I find it is just that teenie weenie bit to big, I just can not get my hand around it so quickly, it digs into my body a bit and makes getting fingers around it a slower process. I have also found the surface is a good non slip material and that it drags on cloths and skin, not like my Kahr that just slips out easily. Its still early days, and perhaps I will improve on the dislikes, but I been carrying for 36 years and I do believe I know myself and my ways, abilities.
I put a 100 or so rounds through it, accurate ? Easy the most naturally accurate for me pistol I have shot, I have barely to do more than pull the trigger and I am at least 3 times a better shot than my compact pistol. I shot beer cans at 30 m using my second ever mag of ammo. (my first two magazines were just play and fun before serious testing and 2nd clean etc)

I am suitably impressed with this weapon, but it is likely that I will go back to my compact for everyday carry, its just so much easier to carry. Guess the 6 shot limitation is a risk I will need to accept.

Die idee van n standaard grootte pistool met ekstra ammunisie wat saam met n 9mmP werk klink regtig goed.

Het enigiemand al met so een geskiet, of ander ervaring daarmee?

Does anyone have experience with the FN 5.7 pistol? It is a fascinating cartridge and pistol. The idea of extra shots in a standard sized pistol and performance similar to a 9mmP takes its toll ;) ]]> Pistols Ds J https://systemz.online/community/pistols/fn-57-enige-ervaring-any-experience
