RE: 10mm Auto - I definitely gotta say I'm diggin' on the caliber! Kinda reminds me of squeezing off some BuffaloBore rounds in my Security Six. But even a little more "spirited" than that due to its lighter smaller gun size. I'd almost say it feel stronger than that.
I will say though, that I'm still NOT a fan of Glock triggers though. It was a long time ago that I first tried one. And yep... they're still pretty much the same. I dunno.. maybe I'm just spoiled now from firing my Revolver for soo long... and then last couple years the 1911 Single-Action trigger on my lil mini 1911 Sig P238. But "Meh" I was still able to shoot it well first time out. Just took more effort than I feel it should be taking. Because of that ridiculously looooooooooooong trigger pull that stacks up and up and up and it seems ya can't, er... at least *I* can't...yet... "feel" when it's near to breaking, like I can on my others. Hopefully that's something that'll come in time.
Was really happy about the accuracy though. Was just using some PMC Bronze JHP ammo. I'm just gonna need more rounds thru it so my body and mind gets used to it and stops over-anticipating. Couple times caught myself punching the trigger when fatigue built up a bit and induced some shaking from my muscles reaching point of diminishing returns when you're holding it on target too long, again due to the long trigger pull and also some adrenalin and lactic acid build-up.
I think I'd really enjoy a G20 even more with the longer sight radius. Meh, maybe next year. But my most sought after goal was weight savings over my revolver, and keeping a small form-factor to it, like my lil Sig. And I feel I made the right choice there with this G29.
The other main component of why 3-Dot night sights with the nice big blocky sights is that I'm far more accurate because even with my crappy vision, which requires glasses at all times now.. this means the sights themselves are not in focus... so with the nice chunky 3-Dot combat sights... even with as fuzzy as the edges of the blocks become for me.. they are big enough I can still line them up really well with those 3 fuzzy square blocks. Which accomplishes the main objective.
EDIT: Not a fan of Fiber Optic sights for weapons to be taken out into the field. Just seems like Fiber Optic sights always eventually end up have the little fiber pieces eventually fall out or get knocked off by brush or something.
And we'll see about the weapon light. What you're saying totally makes sense and all. How much do they weigh though? So hey...
@Beendare... could you possibly suggest a couple nice USB Rechargeable options for the G29?
My vision at night (when my glasses are on of course) is not something I consider an issue and usually I see/detect things better than others in that regard. And when I've been out there camping with the lil Sig P238, I've checked out what it looks like to draw it and aim at stuff in the night without lights. To my eyes it seemed fine. But I'm not stupid and I do realize that's dependent on how much star/moon light is actually reaching down to you though. I guess for now I'll roll without that light for a bit, since I already ordered the Razco as a without light. Then once I pay off some stuff... maybe get a light and the Razco model made for them with a light.
EDIT:
@Beendare - Another important question I just thought of... when you have a weapon light attached...on a small barrel gun like this G29... does it leave enough room for those of us with sausage fingers to put the index finger of our support hand upon the outer front surface of the trigger guard? I'm sure you can with a G20 because the longer barrel afford room to work with, but I'm wondering if a light on a G29 might impede your ability to put that finger there outside of the trigger guard for support. That's a must for me, being able to have the support index finger on the outside of trigger guard like that. That's the magic that takes away any wagging of the barrel.
