Modacity shooters' thread

My Glock and yes it really isn't very comfortable to shoot.
@PenGuin1362, I live in Nottingham. I'm on Route 4 towards Lee Speedway. I'm on 7 acres, so i don't need to worry much.

[PenGuin1362]

ah, that's like an hour north of me. I live in Milford, it's like half hour south of Manchester

My Glock and yes it really isn't very comfortable to shoot.

Fourth generation glock right? That looks very different from my second generation glock imo. I prefer the older glock models apposed to the newer ones for some reason. then again I am not the fancy type to add little lasers or flashlights to a pistol.

I mean, shit, don't tell me this isn't boxy:

It's more angular than the Glock, because Glock rounds their slide edges, but overall the USP looks less boxy to me. Also, the angles are extremely useful for one-handed weapon-manipulation. Got lots more places you can "hook" to than on a Glock, you may not know what I'm talking about if you've never taken a course or watched a good instructional video on one-handed manipulation though.

Usefulness is irrelevant since were talking about looks. More places to hook also makes it terrible as a concealed carry weapon, further rendering irrelevant that advantage since it's also a disadvantage. It's also not terribly hard to figure out how to one-hand any gun. For example: have catch point? Have belt? You're in business. Shit, I can even one-hand my Enfield and an AK.

Moving on: I've always favoured the Glock 26 out of the entire line-up. I think it just looks good. Not much use at an appreciable distance, though.

I dont like Glocks. They seem cheap to me, they look ugly, and are just overall overdone. A good 1911, a Browning HP, a CZ 75, any of these guns I would take over a Glock. Poly frames look horrendous to me.

[Cortexian]

I kind of want a SIG P226, been favoring it recently... Need to try one out though.

[PenGuin1362]

I've heard good things from sig, never personally handled or fired one though

[Warsaw]

Never fired. Will be doing so either this weekend or early next week. I'll let you know how it is.

So I'm thinking of buying a Mauser 98 of one kind or another this summer. Most of what I am seeing are either of Czech or Yugo manufacture, and that is fine for me. But Mitchells has me intrigued, since their "K98" is completely refurbished and is priced competitively with the Yugos that will come with some wear and a lot of cosmoline. Anyone have some tips or opinions?
