    Using an Aimpoint H-1 would a Glock 29 give faster target acquistion than a G17L

    Using an Aimpoint H-1 would a Glock 29 give faster target acquistion than a G17L with the same red dot mounted. Have both guns, and tempted to buy the second Micro red dot. for the G29. May have to remove from one and install on the other to answer my question.

    Aimpoint micro red dot

    I purchased a Aimpoint micro red dot and mounted on my Glock 17L. Will never go back to regular sights. Sitting in a dim almost dark room, i compared the aimpoint sights to the nomal glow in the dark sights. Aimpoint far superior IMO. Paid as much for the Aimpoint H-1 and I did for either...

    I have the Aimpoint R-1 stanless same as the H-1 Mattee. Would like to buy two more but the $520 + for each is holding me back. Hand guns keep or go up in price. Optics resale seems iffy to me. In the meantime I set up a do dad that allows me to move the Aimpoint to my different guns with a...

    cast lead vs. jacketed hollow point.

    When i can find a cast lead bullet that i have shot at the range, as a rule i see expansion. Run fairly soft about 14 hardness or less. At the same time expansion on hollow point jacketed bullets seems about the same. Fullly jacketed bullet may get some distortion. Am I totally wrong?
