Honeybooboo Posted August 18, 2018 Share Posted August 18, 2018 Looking for something to buy for fun/possible carry and not necessarily for a division. What do you think? PPQ VP9 or p320 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

random_guy7531 Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 This might sound a bit silly, but you did mention that it might be used for carry, so I'd actually suggest the VP9 SK or the PPQ Subcompact . I have a VP9 SK that I use in a local outlaw BUG match (which really just allows anything with a <3.5" barrel). I've found that shooting short barreled/short sight radius/small grip guns to be and enjoyable break from my normal USPSA stuff. Additionally, both the VP9 and PPQ subcompact versions *should* be legal in either IDPA BUG or CCP divisions (no promises there though, I haven't verified).

I think I preferred the PPQ SC slightly. However, I hear that they changed a lot of the internals and it’s vastly different from the PPQ. I don’t know if that’s good or bad but people seem mad that it uses the PPQ name and likeness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OPENB Posted August 19, 2018 Share Posted August 19, 2018 How about an Officers sized 1911 in 9mm? I thought they would be fun to play with, cheap to shoot, and easily concealed. Could be a BUG competition gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gritty and tons of creep. Like a mile of creep. Couldn’t even call it a rolling break. It was like a double action trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange. That wasn't my experience with several that I have fired. Many magazines have reviews have raved at how good of a striker fired trigger it has.

MemphisMechanic Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 (edited) The ordinary fullsize PPQ is basically a Glock 19 with a bit more barrel. The ”fullsize” PPQ and Q5 have a relatively short grip. Cannot recommend highly enough. Even better ergonomics and trigger than a 19 in the same package, offen with a lower price tag. I have a PPS for the times when I’d otherwise want a PPQ SC for the shorter grip. That’s a *fantastic* gun. I hated my shield for its ergonomics, whereas when I shot the PPS in Limited Minor I actually had a stage win in Limited with it! Really shootable.

OnceACowboy Posted August 21, 2018 Share Posted August 21, 2018 Another vote for PPQ. Fits my hands perfectly and for a striker fired .... pretty good trigger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honeybooboo Posted December 23, 2018 Author Share Posted December 23, 2018 Totally forgot about this thread. I’ve picked up a couple Glocks since then as well as a Ruger EC9 that I actually really like. Also loving the Glock G45. Now that the VP9B is out I wouldn’t mind one of those. I was shooting yesterday and handled a PPQ Q4 tac at the shop and that’s nice too. But the high bore throws me off. I want something to put a red dot on and I’m like eh the dot would be like a mile above my hands. Interested to see what comes out at SHOT this year.

Salsantini Posted December 26, 2018 Share Posted December 26, 2018 I carry a PPQ. It is a very comfortable pistol to shoot and has a nice trigger with a short reset. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikeAZ Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Geezz, try a Canik.SFX %" /SF 4" pistol... Best "BANG" for the buck out there!!!!! VERY, very accurate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mich3210 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I love my VP9, and competed with it last year. It's extremely accurate, and has a great trigger. I like it better than the PPQ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamj Posted January 8, 2019 Share Posted January 8, 2019 PPQ M2 all day long. Great trigger for a striker pistol and buce ergonomics as well. I think its a very personal choice but the more guns I've owned the more I value hiw well my hand fits the gun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
