It's Glocktober, so I just wanted to take a moment to remind everyone that Glocks suck

I mean, seriously, at the USPSA Carry Optics Nationals, only THREE of the Top 10 finishers were Glocks.

Clearly, Glock Perfection isn't so perfect after all. 🤣

I just wanna know how the 3rd place winner is doing from the hospital with his totally unsafe P320.
 
Three out of ten, not bad! That’s like batting .300 in baseball, that will keep you in the Major Leagues!
 
Walther PDP is the best gun as shown here, proof it's super viable lol

Btw how many mods to those "Glocks"

Gotta laugh though, this is why sponsorship works. Guy sees pro using equipment, so must be the best. Sometimes it's true, sometimes it's because they had a great sponsor deal. I personally don't work with brands I don't actually like but for example I have run brake sponsors that weren't my favorite pads to run but they were giving me an incredible sponsorship contract where my fav brand in Japan not happening.

Counter example Ken Roczen winning on the Suzuki 450 at the international pro level, the worst least competitive bike in class without even electric start LOL

It’s carry optics so not many mods are allowed. Trigger jobs is about it.

Not sure your hate for Glock, its a fine competition platform. It’s way more about the shooter than the gun once you get past a certain baseline on the handgun.

The Glocks are pretty stock…Brantley uses a Tactical Trigger which is a different shoe on the performance trigger 🤷🏽‍♂️
 
If I remember, Sam’s setup is pretty similar to Brantley’s…trigger shoe, factory trigger bar/connector…but I think he uses a different recoil spring, Brantley’s is stock Glock
 
No surprise #1 is a pistol with a 5.3 inch barrel...just so happens to be a glock as well lol
 
Jajaja reading these comments

The gun largely does not matter. It’s all about the shooter’s talent and ability to consistently apply the fundamentals.

PS - Mason is a beast. Highly recommend his class.
 
you guys none of this is a real argument, anyone that's competed has been beat by a Glock so clearly they are competitive. Has anyone actually said they aren't competitive? Glock guys are annoying when someone says they like a different platform better, they say trigger doesn't matter, grip doesn't matter etc. Other people are annoying if they say that Glocks don't work. In this day and age all the guns work. I do think that ergonomics matter more than people give them credit for, there's a bit of survivorship bias to point to people that win with glocks and say that because of that, everyone should be ok with a Glock because those people pick up a Glock and like how it is, I personally hate everything about the ergonomics and prefer my M&Ps by a lot. But no one is really wrong for wanting a better trigger or ergonomics that they like. Some people have lego man hands that fit glocks and some people have human hands. Ironically because of the laws here Glocks are no longer the simplest cheapest choice so it's hard to say "just get a glock" when they cost more than an HK. Maybe next year that will be different.

I’ve been shooting 4-12 matches a month since Jan and can say…

You hit the nail on the head
