Yea man - g26

[jpo183]

After shooting boundless's g26 down at MSAR for Dottrio Day I was hooked.

Just bought a g26 this morning from Lou45

Was it your first time? I hope Lou was gentle.

Probably the best CCW weapon out there IMHO. I won't own one and it was originally because I hate it without the pink extension (easy fix) and now it's just me being stubborn but I did just buy the exact same thing only a G33 and not a 26!

Sometimes as a species we are dumb......I'm living proof.

Damn HQL. Grrrr.

New or trade-in?

It absolutely is the best CCW gun. I fired about 6 different ccw guns and this one shoots amazing. No recoil, shoots like a glock and even though its smaller it doesnt feel like you have to compromise. Currently I carry a keltec pf9. The double stack is a bit wider, but not really a biggie for IWB.

New and last one

I have one as well. It's a nice little shooter.

Agree on it being an ideal gun for carry. I carry one. Never had a FTF or FTE with it, either. I shoot mine suppressed too, and it is as reliable as can be.

G26 is a great little pistol, especially when stoked with 124 gr HST!!!!!

 

[Tacticalglobe]

I have an G27.

Would love to feel the difference between the two.

The G27 is a Mule.

You already know my opinion so Congrats! I shoot mine better than my 19 and 17. It is one hell of a good gun.

Love my G27G4, in my pocket right now. Fired a G26 with my chosen 147gr+p HSTs and G27 with 180gr HSTs, and really felt no difference in recoil, but the better availability of defensive ammo, slight edge in ballistics, less blast and lower pressure was worth the 1rd penalty for me personally. 165 or 180gr tends to be fairly soft shooting at < 1000 FPS, but full power 155-165 at 1250+fps can really thump, where the 147+p in 9mm around 1100fps is the ceiling for recoil in 9mm, the soft shooting 180gr(or light loads in some other brands) is the floor in 40. The factory mags do nothing to help your grip, and the extended Peirce make the grip near a G19/G23 size and without any palm support. I found GAP floorplates and it is probably the best mod you could make, only problem is they don't make them for EVERY compact. Unlike extensions they are not longer than the factory grip, they just allow your fingers to lock into the grip, so they have just as much control as a full grip without a full grip, works great in a pocket holster.

If you do want a full 5 finger grip, Xgrip sleeves on G19/G23 mags offer 4 or 5 more rounds, and the absolute most comfortable grip a GLOCK can have IMO, good for IWB carry in jacket weather, at the range, home defense, or for a reload. Nice gently rounded with a nice spot for your pinkie, and nothing more than needed, like it much better than the plain G19 grip, about as small as a full grip can be. It's more controllable than the small G26/G27 grip even with GAP plates, feels more like a P99/PPQ shape. Wish it was textured like the factory gen4 grip though, and instead of soft plastic something harder to match the grip better, but despite nitpicking as is it works great. Added decent night sights, worked on the trigger, added a Vickers mag release, and it's much more versatile, easier to shoot and more accurate than you would think it should be.
