    Shot my G17.2 next with an RMR on it.

    Was running the 148+P poly coat flat points through it. They clock at 1125 from a G17 and 1156 from my G34. I really like these little hammers.

    Friends,

    Was out yesterday doing some T&E stuff and took a bit of time to run some loads through some various guns. Ran some 200 grain Bear/Predator loads through my Gen 5 Glock 20.

    I don't disagree.

    The primary feature was that my young daughter was unable to defeat the SS 3 retention holster. The Glock w/o a round in the chamber was simply an additional layer. It ended up...
