glock 357 sig

[MarcS]

Thanks folks for your imput. I also heard that the bottle neck design of the sig is a big plus in avoiding jams.

That's an interesting theory. I'll test it out if you can find me a Glock in any caliber that jams.

I was going to say the same thing.

I also had the slide lock open continuously because of a bad slide stop spring.

The guy in the video was clearly limp-wristing it.

Either that or he has the strength of a 4 year old.

I would tend to agree with the Glocks don't (usually) jam theory. I have owned and shot Glocks from back when Equip rails simply didn't exist and can't remember a single jam, FTE or FTF with any of my Glocks. KABOOMS? Well that's another story but testicley (or is that technically ?) that's not a jam.

And your point is WHAT.

It's called a malfunction.

[JustinM]

My point IS, that if you limp-wrist any handgun it WILL more often than not, malf.

yep, got the exact same malf with my 19 last week taking a new shooter to the range. guy is the size of a 12yo girl. I corrected his grip and it never happened again...fancy that

You say ANY handgun. That's the problem. This "problem" has been a relatively new and an isolated thing, basically restricted to Glocks. I've tried t get my 1911 to malfunction by BARELY gripping it. I COULD NOT DO IT.

Also I've had (and seen) OTHER types of malfunction with the "perfect" weapon.

I'll just leave it at that.

Funny, since i've never found a 1911 i couldn't jam simply by doing everything correctly.

Glocks have lighter slide masses and very firm magazine springs making a proper grip important.
