My journey began with an M&P, then an M&P Pro. Finally seduced by the 2011, I switched to an STI DVC Limited for about two years. Last weekend I had two stoppages due to fickle 2011 magazine issues, the last of several that have blown stages for me. I don't need help wrecking my scores thank you very much. I just realized I am not having fun and I do not have the time to tinker-fiddle with expensive magazines in the hope they don't let me down. Again. I shoot with two other guys with M&Ps, including my old Pro, and it occurs to me that they have never cleaned their magazines in 4 years. Not once. To be clear, the STI has been brilliant and is wonderful to own and shoot, it's not at fault, I am.
Today I picked up a new Gen 5 Glock 34 MOS FS and I think I'll like it. I already had a bunch of mags from my Glock 17 and several extended ones for my PCC so it seemed a natural. I hope to begin the transition back to having fun this weekend as I try and learn to not see the top of the slide every time I point the Glock.
