No I have not, that is why I am asking. Not the new model either. I am only interested in the old 9mm version that used the same mags as the Ruger P89.
I haven’t shot one. I like the way the old ones stocks look. The new ones look kind of fugly. The heat shroud ones look slightly better but not enough to perk my interest. But there is an advantage to the new ones RickN, they can take glock mags in addition to the Ruger mags. Some type of adapter.
Yes but they do not take the old style Ruger mags, and I will not own a Glock.
As much as I have read I did not know you hated the Tupperware Austrian guns. I used to hate them basically because of cosmetics, they were boxy and ugly and I preferred my 1911. Then I got hooked up with a steal of a deal and after a lot of rounds I came to like the odd trigger in it. Actually a pretty accurate gun. What is your loathing of the glock from?
It just does not feel right in my hand. I have fired some friends have and my step daughter carriers one that I have handled a lot, but it feels like a Hi-Point to me. That is why I always joke about them being the Hi-point expensive model. I grew up on single action revolvers, got use to DA revolvers, then 1911s, My old Ruger P89 feels OK along with a few other semi-autos but Glocks feel weird along with those revolvers with the low mounted barrel.
Remember we are talking about magazines. Glock mags are cheap and reliable. Plus, it just fun having a small carbine with 33 rounds.
