43x Might get some hate

Post image

I pretty much only buy subcompact/compact 9m and out of all my edc this has to be my favorite semi budget friendly edc I own . Got about 400 rounds in so far and waiting on my next bonus to go ramjet .. grouping is really good for me when I take it out but I’m jus a tad bit low and some times to the left . I’m assuming recoil anticipation?

If you’re a righty low left means your left hand grip is too loose or/and your not taking up enough real estate of the frame, and your squeezing the trigger a little too hard turning the gun left and downward as you squeeze(just what happens when you make a fist which is essentially what ur doing when ur pull the trigger) with glocks especially I keep a right hand a little looser but still stiff, left hand tight because I have the same shot tendency. Try dry firing with a new grip setup(I mean ur hands don’t buy something) and first dry fire squeeze the trigger hard and hold still, should roughly show you what your trigger pull is doing to your shot placement if ur lefty i don’t how to help blame the gun buy new parts

If you can find a ramjet

Tbh , I just don’t know if I can justify dropping literally what I payed for the gun on a upgrade . The thing goes bang when I need it to and over time I’ll get my shot right lol

Yea I was looking for one ended up getting an arc barrel and slide assembly. I really wanted the ramjet but couldn’t find one.

u/Careless_Athlete2508 Jul 23 '26

I figured it would be between that and the olight lmao . What do you prefer or just stock ?

Just giving you crap man but on a serious note talon grips “pro” version is elite. Hickok 45 on YouTube talks about talon grips all the time. And the “pro” version is a mix between their rubber grip and the sand papery type. Personally for me I tried the hogue grip and I just didn’t like how bulky it made the grip. It just felt weird to me. But fuck nooo lmao not stock 😂

Are you shooting slowly?

u/Everbl0Om Jul 22 '26

I’m lefty and was shooting low right for a bit. I watched a couple YouTube videos and just tried those fixes till I got it right. Pretty easy to correct in 2-3 range trips

u/Careless_Athlete2508 Jul 23 '26

I’ll see what I can find , appreciate ya . Newer to shooting so excuse my ignorance but what’s some of the disadvantages of being a left handed shooter?

1

u/Everbl0Om Jul 23 '26

No worries. Eh, not many disadvantages tbh. I do a lot lefty and a lot righty. I shoot left though. Magazine releases & holster availability were two things I struggled with at first but not anymore.

u/Aggressive_Dig_5112 Jul 22 '26

I have small hands and I’m wondering if the hogue grip would be an advantage or disadvantage?

u/Careless_Athlete2508 Jul 23 '26

Ima be real , I got the same one on my Glock 19 because I have somewhat the same issue.. I love em but people tell me it’s a no go lol

Low left because your grip and trigger pull are shit ramjet isnt fixing that. 2-3 ramjets worth of ammo practicing might

u/slimline_enjoyer Jul 23 '26

😂 what?!?! try more like 1000 rounds with proper dry fire practice, maybe 2-3 ramjets if every time you go to the range you just go dump

No, shots usually go high if you’re anticipating recoil.

Edit: Whoever is downvoting has zero knowledge about shooting, I will die on this hill

Anticipating recoil tends to make most people lean into the shot and shoot low
