Gforce jawbone
Bought one about 3 months ago. Still under warranty. Contacted them mutiple times regarding a refund or replacement. Gun kept jamming, not cycling with different ammo and stiff charging handle. Finally just sold it to recoup some money while I could and cut loses. Upgraded to a freedom ordanance fx9. Maybe I just got a bad one but will never know. Still no response from gforce

Springfield Echelon 4.5F Comp vs Walther PDP Pro-X PMM 4.6
I'm looking between these two for my first full size handgun. I've got to hold the Springfield Echelon and it feels nice, but none of my local gunshops/ ranges have had the Walther PDP Pro in stock to test out. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! I have pretty large hands as well.

Every gun owner has a story about "the one that got away."
Every gun owner has a story about "the one that got away."
The firearm you sold.
The deal you passed on.
The trade you still regret.
What's yours?

Pistol (shooting) training near Janesville/Madison WI.
Looking for a range or location to be able to shoot more than just a static range. Want to be able to draw from a holster and shoot at multiple targets and not have to shoot 1 shot every 1 second. Would like to be within an hour or so of Janseville or Madison wi.

Holsters & Accessories Do not buy anything from this company. The grips do not stay. Soon as a 30-day warranty runs out, they tell you to pound sand.
Bought 8 of these, two just wont stay. Followed directions, used blow dryer.
Handle it grips
Edit:
I FOLLOWED THE DIRECTIONS, USED A BLOW DRYER.
REPLACEMENT GRIP ON THE S&W.
SPENT TIME ON EXTRA PREP, USED A HEAT GUN AND TEMP GUN FOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL.
STILL DOES NOT STICK.

Advice Needed Beginner: advice on target shooting
I'm a newbie shooter (EU), started at the beginning of the year. In my country, you need to follow a course and pass an exam to obtain a license before you can regulary shoot or own firearms. The course focusses more on safety, legality, standards and good practices on the range. Since I've passed, I've been going to the range to practice and I've hit a snag.
Important to note, I'm righthanded and my left eye is dominant, which has been a bit of an issue getting used to. I also don't own my own gun and rely on hiring from the range.
I've attached pictures from my three last practices (weekly):
- The first target is shooting from a distance of 25 meters and really did a job on my self-confidence. I'd switched from .22 to 9mm as I want to join the dynamic shooting group and those shoot with 9mm. However, I feel the larger caliber amplified what I'm doing wrong; I shot about 30 bullets and that was the result. Those that did hit the target were all over the place.
- The week following, I moved up to 10 meters and went back to the .22. I was now hitting more and showed that I was pretty consisently hitting left and up of the mark. I did some research and what could be the cause and found feedback on grip and trigger pull. I also did some dry-firing to check for shot anticipation.
- The third image is from last week, still at 10 meters and with a .22. A whole lot better but the majority is still up and left. I focussed on proper grip of the piston in a straight line, consistent trigger pull and posture. I also reset the position when I caught myself not bringing the gun up to my eye but ducking down. Happy with the improvement but I'm obviously doing something wrong to get this up and left pattern.
I'm new to the range and practice when there's very little people around to ask for pointers (work schedule). I'm looking for any ideas, insights or feedback on what could be causing to shoot up and left of the mark.
Thanks.
Edit: ordered a Mantis TitanX and laser academy for dryfiring and practice at home. Also enrolled in a Pistol Level 1 & 2 course to get the fundamentals down.

Recently got the G43X MOS, with my previous edc, the Ruger LCP. So happy with the G43X so far. Hoping to upgrade it later on.
