Boise but I'm in Kansas City right now rounding out the end of my Marine Corps contract. I'll be home once in March, then once more in July/August, and I'll be home for good in November. I plan on going back to Boise and attending BSU.

I figured you were in the Eastern Washington area, am I correct?
Have you shot the 27? If so, how does if compare to the 33? |

Correct(E.WA) Problem is I roof for a living so unless I'm shooting a 50cal pistol, I rarely notice recoil, sorry. I own; 1 - G17 1 - G17L 1 - G19 1 - G20(pending) 1 - G21 1 - G23 2 - G24(1- "C") 2 - G26 1 - G27 1 - G32C 1 - G33 1 - G37 1 - G38 I need to CK the safe to see if I forgot any. Edit: forgot one

It's not the recoil that bothers me so much as how the recoil is "applied". I like .45ACP as it kinda "pushes" but .40's snap and I don't like that.

I have a glock 31 in 357 sig. I loved the gun from the start. This last year I finally got a 40 cal drop in barrel and let me tell you, it shoots rings around my factory glock barrel. My glock has turned into my most accurate semi auto I own. I got the luck of the draw. It wasnt one of the match barrels either just a basic federal arms barrel from Brownells,

I shot the G27 and the G33 before buying the G33. I also rented a G33 with the .40 cal barrel and I still like the .357 sig better. It is LOUD but I felt the recoil was better with the .357 than the .40 cal. Our local PD uses the .357 sig and only 1 out of 6 Police shootings was not a fatality, pretty good I'd say.

I can't wait to go pick one up, I'm waiting for a weak moment to go charge it.

I have a stock Glock 32 barrel in a Glock 23 and find no big difference in recoil, the 357 SIG is a bit louder and seems to push more back than flipping up but there is less difference between the two and the G21.
I find the G21 to be softer shooting. If the Glock 30 fits your hand, you should look into that subcompact, too. |

A bad, and a good onehout
Regarding "peening" in the slide you can mill of 1-2mm off the locking block, so it won't slam against the slide during cycling! This will not weaken the GLOCK, but it has to be done when new-in-box to prevent any peening marks! I feel I should share this info with other glock owners, maybe some of you already knew but anyway! |

I have only shot borrowed 40 glocks a few rounds long ago, but my new 33 seems VERY snappy. The muzzle does not rise hardly at all, but makes a loud boom, cycles really fast, and makes your hand a little sore and red. I think either will be snappy and enough rounds of either will give you carpel tunnel. Just get the one you want.

I bought a Glock 33 and immediately got a .40 barrel from Glockmeister.
I've done "quick change" tests on the range, trying to retain my memory from the other caliber. It's interesting how people's perception is different, but I find the .357 more "snappy" and straight back than the .40. My personal opinion is the .40 recoil in the small gun is easier to control than the .357. I am not recoil sensitive (have a G30 too) so I feel that my observations are pretty objective. I can shoot the G33 well with either the .357 or .40, but I like the .40 better. I've installed Crimson Trace grips on the G33 and with them I compete well with folks shooting Sig 226, 1911s, and other full size guns in my weekly pistol league. I just bought a G23 (OD...Stylin'!!) and I'll probably buy a .357 barrel too. It'll be interesting to see how I feel about the difference in the larger gun. |
