I managed to get some range time on Saturday to give the Glock 20 its first workout. I'm pleased with its performance.
The XS Big Dot sights take a little getting used to, since I've used a 3-dot setups on my other Glocks for years. I dropped quite a few shots low, but I attribute that to an incorrect sight picture rather than a trigger control issue.
The gun is quite comfortable to shoot, even weak hand only. I fed it 150 rounds of Georgia Arms canned heat, plus 15 rounds of Double Tap 180gr Gold Dot, plus 15 rounds of Double Tap 200gr Hornady XTP rounds. All fed and fired as expected.
The G20 is BIG. I'm talking huge. When I ran 50 rounds through my G19, it was like handling a small toy in comparison.
Shooting is a perishable skill, and I clearly need to shoot more often than I've been doing. While my accuracy was good enough to drop a bad guy, my precision left a little to be desired. I also need to start loading dummy rounds into my magazines again. I had a stovepipe with the G19 that I cleared with all of the grace of a drunken monkey - totally unacceptable.
It was interesting to see the makeup of folks shooting on the range today - mostly folks in their 20s, coming in groups of 3 or 4. There was a group next to me, tearing up a Bruno target with a shotgun and a .308 of some sort. I noticed them on the display floor handling a bunch of EBRs before hitting the range. Most everyone there was all over the paper at distances of less than 10 yards, and more then a few were new shooters being introduced to shooting by a friend.
Overall, a good time at the range.
