CCWing the Glock 20

I went shooting with the glock 20 today and re-affirmed that it takes considerable familiarity. One cannot just pick it up after months of non use and crank off the first rnd with a perfect hit. But, with concentration one can be back in the groove quickly. With a SA or SA/DA revolver one can lay off and be able to pick it up or change revolvers and be on tgt. Of course I only shoot SA except with the LCR.
Anyway, since I was out and needed some seven to combat wasps and was wearing a Cabelas XL tall sun shirt, I decided to CCW the glock. It carried well, and was no more trouble than a SP 101 or the LCR, as long as I wasn't trying to pocket carry.
Oh, for the BGK: the shirt was blue.

Im starting to think that it is different with different people. For me, most every Glock I have fired I do well with even if it has been months since I have used one. But as for revolvers, I have to really work to get back "in the groove" with them.
As for concealed carrying the model 20, I have done it a few time especially if I have to stop somewhere while on my way to the woods or something.
Glad to hear you still have the Glock 20 even though it doesnt seem to agree with you at times.
What I normally do at the range is alternate at least 2 pistols so that I can "lap in" on each without a lot of tweaking. No, it's not for precise or detailed target distances, but for the typical 21 feet that's a self defense distance, I can get 90% of my shots in the 3, 4, or 5 ring. Maybe not the most perfect technique but acceptable in my book.
ps -- do you find that blue shirts are more accurate than green ones? ha ha

Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.... now who's bringing the hot wings? :jester:
Son that's somebody with nothing to do with his time but keep me in trouble with mom.
I always start with the .22 and work my way up... 9mm, .40, .44spl/.45, .44 mag and then call it a day.

hah,
you have dropped your britches and gave away your secret. You carry that .327, and when it pisses someone off just enough, you pull the 10.
