LOL! But of course you can either pick up a copy of G&A or subscribe to get the results. Anyone out there with the financial means to subscribe to mags anymore? LOL!
What kinda comparison is this?! No HnK?!
They didn’t test my carry piece? ... The Bersa UC Pro 9mm? Not a consumer test, a manufacturer’s test probably. The Glock 43 is pushing lots of these ‘tests’.
Great test. Wish they didn’t blow it by using low lead, 147 grain, 950fps pud loads.
Do this whole test and use the most oddball ammo possible. I know that the mini Kimber requires heavy projectiles to work, but those others don’t.
So not a useful test really.
I’d like to have tested my pistol like this. In the years I’ve had it I never had any stoppages at all with a bunch of different loads.
I cancelled my subscription to Guns and Ammo after Metcalf’s column.
I resubscribed a month ago but still have not seen that article. Maybe I will get it Tuesday.
After more than 60 years of shooting, I believe that for whatever reason, double stack mags in 9mm are more reliable than single stack.
I would like to see the results.
No High Point?
Used a high point in .45 once. Every shots a jam. Do they all do that? Seriously, EVERY shot failed to cycle.
There is a small number of enthusiasts who love these debates and testing studies. But the best gun for anyone is the one they feel most comfortable carrying, practicing with and shooting. If it can’t be drawn and used smoothly in a critical situation it might as well be a paperweight.
Love the Bersa line
380 and 9mm’s
Bersa is extremely underrated. And I’m glad. It helps them remain very very affordable.
I used to read magazines like this about 20 years ago. It took me a while to figure out they are largely “pay to play.”
I had a Keltec PMR30 just like that straight out of the box brand new. It took 3 months at the factory to fix for something that should have NEVER left it
I have a Beretta 84 and 85 in FS as well as an 87. IMO three of the finest weapons made. In addition they are just beautifl. (at least these three that are made in Italy versus coming from the US.).
Dads crappy high point would always eject, but it was like the recoil spring would never exert enough pressure on the return stroke to strip and chamber the round. You could bop the slide forward with your other hand to make it work.
What’s a 9mm?
My parents had 44 guns in all, but never tried a keltec.
Smaller, less powerful version of a .45 cal. :>}
