    Seems like they have a recurring issue with extractor batches. But it's a simple fix. And their guys in the field at GSSF shoots help a ton of people.

    No. The only mods were the installation of a factory "-" connector, a tangodown slide stop and Heinie Straight Eight night sights. All pretty tame and none affect extraction or ejection. Just minor improvements to get it "just right".

    The last G19 I had was pitiful. I had decided to give it another go with Glock. Bought a new G19 and decked it out with all my favorite parts. Basically an LAV edition, before there was an LAV edition, with a "-" connector. I was excited, because it seemed perfect to me! But it quickly started...

    The amazing thing about seeing Ernest shoot wasn't just how well or accurate he was, it was how blazing fast he was. Especially with a DA/SA M92.

    The 19 is the perfect size pistol. I've wished for a long time that Smith would make a Midsize M&P. But the compact gets the job done well enough for me. <<still wants a G19 sized M&P

    Alot of them do shoot a Glock. But several don't. Hell, I watched Ernie Langdon run a Beretta M92 like it was on fire last year. The truth is, for most of those guys, it's just a tool with no emotional attachment. The ones that do run a Glock will tell you it's because they just plain work. No...

    On the other hand, Naval Special Warfare (NSW / SEALs) are currently in the process of dumping the Mk25 in favor of the G19. Standby for the rejoicing of fan boys...

    Glock has had their fair share of issues and puts out lemons just like everyone else. Professional shooters and trainers that I've met always seem to chuckle when the subject of Glock "perfection" comes up. Because they've had lots of issues over the years. Glock NEVER publicly acknowledges...

    The worst gun I've owned in the last few years was a new Gen 3 G19. But anyone can put out a lemon every now and then. The way I see it, every gun has its fans. But if you're choosing a gun based on what everyone else shoots or says is the "best", then you're doing yourself a disservice. Try...

    Good point. Once you've invested in mags, holsters, etc, it's hard to justify switching to anything else. On the other hand, the recent selling prices of the M&P, puts it into blue label territory.

    Heck, I like the M&P so much, that I'm seriously considering trying my hand at fitting a match barrel to the slide.

    True, they are more expensive. I pick them up for about $25 each. However, I've tried to switch from the M&P to Glock, HK VP9 & PPQ. I just kept coming back to the M&P. I found it was hard to beat with an Apex upgrade. Better ergos than the Glock, with a more natural POA & POI. It shoots more...

    Ready to step out of the Minor League

    Speaking of hardware, I'm seriously considering ordering the new Apex semi-drop in barrel for my M&P. It requires minor fitting, but substantially improves lock time and inherent accuracy.
