Range report: Glock vs 1911

[jj19]

More like he's telling you it's still an apples to oranges comparison. There doesn't always need to be a 'winner.'

I know that and I never said anything about which would win just wanted to know for knowledge's sake.

That's my point, given different platforms and price, I was curious about what the result can be just by changing out the trigger in the glock and still be cheaper than LB. You know what, nevermind, I will find out on my own. Lol

Haha so you're saying it's a waste of money to put an aftermarket trigger in a glock? Or is someone being an immature highend 1911 fan boy afraid that a $500 gun can be just as great 50 yards and under? Because I put that question out there because I made an assumption calgunners are gun aficionados and can appreciate a fine handgun no matter the price to play.

I believe from 50 yards, Les Baer will beat Glock. From 50 feets, they are the same. JMO

The result will be determined by the shooter. At the distances you are testing, the shooter is the first, second, third and honorable mention of determining factors when it comes to group size/accuracy.

I have a couple .45's; 1911s, Glock 21, and two H&K's. Of them, I shoot 1911s the best, followed by Glock followed by H&K. I don't think that means that 1911s are inherently more accurate than Glocks, which are more accurate than H&K's. Just that I am better with 1911s than Glocks, etc.

If you want objective accuracy, test the guns out of a ransom rest. If you want accuracy for your own use, try em out and decide for youself.

The holes for the Baer would be slightly larger

I may have read your post wrong the first time, my fault. Please ignore my reply.

Good report. Agree the glock triggers compared to a custom 1911 begs for flyers...

A standard Les Baer comes with a 3" accuracy guarantee at 50 yards. The Glock would not be able to match that. The Les Baer is mechanically more accurate than the Glock.

My conclusion based on your tests is that the bad guy is dead regardless of which gun you grab. Good job.

I just like how the people who spent too much are trying to justify their cost over a ugly plastic gun. Hahaha.

This. End.
