Most reliable and shootable 9mm semi auto pistols

Oh boy

It took 20 volunteers to get 10,000 rounds on a pistol, and they thought that it was so impressive that a pistol would last 10,000 rounds that they framed it in a box with a glass cover. šŸ˜‚

Didn’t clear it and then looked at the ā€œgunkā€ on the end of the barrel?

Is this Shot Show?
 
I do not like wide front sights, nor very large air gaps around the front sight. Dawson Precision adjustable rear and FO front set are about right. About a .100 to .115 front, and a .125 or so rear notch.


The Ameriglo front that I have on one pistol (posted above) is .145 I believe? It’s thicker than I usually like, however the very bright orange ring around the tritium vial acts like a large FO, and is visually the same size as a 5-6ā€ target at 25 yards. The rear sight is a Dawson Precision fixed sight- combined there is very little air gap around the front sight. Not the best for true bullseye shooting, but really good for speed precision.



Can’t remember if I’ve used one of theirs that’s .09ā€. I have the .100ā€- I think there are a couple of pictures of some of them that I listed earlier that I posted in the thread- no issues through heinous use.

Way back before I went to dots on most everything I ran Dawson. I ran the adjustable rear with the thinnest fiber front they made. If you are not running a light, tritium starts to make sense. With a light I don’t think they matter.

The G19 came with stock tritium front/rear, and I added a light.
