It's not the gun that won.

It's the man behind the trigger.




But that would dispel your illusions:whistling:
Of course it's the shooter and not the gun. But as a competitor at ANY level, you always want to choose your gun and gear so that your limit is your own ability, and not your equipment. At least I do. So in that sense, this proves that shooting a production Glock CAN be done at the highest levels of competition, and not be a liability to the shooter (as some haters would claim). And this in fact dispels the illusion that you can't be competitive with a Glock.

Just to be clear, I wouldn't choose Glock to compete with because I don't shoot striker-fired pistols quite as well as SA, but that's just me. Obviously, Robert Vogel has mastered it, so it can be done. I can shoot a Glock well enough to trust my life to it as an EDC weapon.

Thanks for posting that robert9192.

It should also be taken into consideration that the IPSC production rules are written in such a way to put Glock at a disadvantage. The G34 is not allowed, and the first shot must be 5 pounds. As we know, the first shot on a Glock is the same as every other shot, whereas a DA/SA eats lighter after the first shot.

Many I speak to today believe that production division is now broken, with the allowance of $2900 race production guns.
