Pistols are a whole different game. No shoulder or cheek weld, no forend on most of them, sights much farther from the eyes, usually a worse trigger pull. Plus, any errors you make with a rifle are always magnified with a handgun. I'm 47 and have been shooting handguns since I bought my first one at 21. I am just now getting to the point where I can consistently make groups like you do with most of my handguns.

Marlin 1894 Guide Gun .44 Magnum, I think I'm gonna be cashing in some gun equity on one of these after Christmas!

I taught my friend's son how to shoot pistols
He loved it and out shot his dad
The 22x and tisas px9 were everyone's favorite to shoot

I shot the px9 against my friend's canik
The tisas is far softer shooting for whatever reason
Slide mass recoil assembly etc
And the trigger on the px9 is better.

Speaking of glock clones LOL

Just picked this up last week, Gforce arms rapture, glock 26 clone (aside from mags as it has a narrower profile grip, ala taurus g2/3c as well as a more upright grip angle....)

so far loving it, how could you complain for a glock compatible setup for what i paid which is $219... already have an upgraded trigger on the way as i am not terribly fond of the amount of take up on a stock glock style trigger... as well as some spare mags...

My favorite cheap bottom feeder is the S&W SD series. I have three 9's and a .40 and so far they have been just as accurate and reliable as my Glock, Sig, and Browning pistols. The only mod I have done is a reduced power trigger spring which makes the double action pull very smooth and light. The new SD's have a single action type pull similar to the M&P and need no mods.

I have one of those one of those really good sights and grip texture also have a exodus
No complaints good pistols
Really haven't shot them much both had stagey gritty triggers so I put 10.00 3.5 disconnectors in them
Now they have better triggers than my OEM glocks.

GF9 RaptureⓇ 16-Round Magazine

gforcearms.com

They sell extended mags for them
Used to be 2 for 50.00
Check out this video, "Gforce rapture and beretta mags"

I'm going to get a 92 mag and cut a new relea to try it
That's all they are beretta mag body's repurposed.

I'm full up on Glock clones after I bought the gforces ruger's rxm came out for 350.00
So I got a couple
I like it the best of the clones and will get the g17 soon and g26 frames when they are available
Almost bought a derya last month

https://www.rkguns.com/derya-dy9-9mm-semi-auto-pistol-386-15-round-flat-dark-earth-dy9zfdetr.html

It's on sale now.
Lots of good reviews on them but I got the tisas duty instead for something different
Really impressed with it.

Are you talking about the RXM? Somebody on Cast Boolits took his RXM apart and measured everything and compared it to his Glock 26 and Glock 17. He concluded that there was no way to make a 26 or 17 slide work with the RXM receiver without major modifications to one or the other. But yeah, if they came out with a Glock 26 size RXM that would be pretty sweet.

The grip frames are supposed to be released eventually from Magpul
Hopefully they come through
The 26 size is actually my favorite Glock.
