[QUOTE="Retired Educator, post: 279156, member: 3373"] Same experience with a Glock 17 in 9mm. Always thought I was a decent shooter. First time I shot the Glock, it feels comfortable and fits my hand nicely, I shot a target that was about 18"X15" at 50ft. LOL. Shot 15 shots and went to check my grouping. Pretty good, again LOL, I found that I hit the target 3 times in about a 18X15 group. One shot up high in the corner, another low in the opposite corner and the last off to one side. No shot was within 6-7 inches of the bull. Quickly defeated my confidence but moved up to 25 ft. and after more than 200 rounds my shooting is getting much better. In 15 shots, most will be in a 10" circle. Practice is important. Shooting a handgun is not the same as shooting a rifle. The Glocik 17 is not probably the best handgun but it's relatively inexpensive and fine for having some fun just shooting. I do know if I came across a lion and I was holding my shotgun I would not be dropping the shotgun and reaching for my 9mm handgun. [/QUOTE]
