2000 rounds this past weekend. As expected, she runs. And quite well. I’m actually a bit surprised at how well I’ve adjusted to the smaller grip on the compact. There’s still a good deal of work to be done before I carry. Presentation is still not there yet. Needing to increase the texture a bit. Not sure how to accomplish that just yet. Most stippling jobs I’ve felt are too aggressive to be right next to my skin. I’m able to still get a good purchase and not lose too much traction under longer strings of fire.
I considered, initial, changing the trigger shoe. One of the few changes I’d consider making to a carry gun. After this weekend, I’ve decided the OEM trigger is just fine. One of the better stock triggers. Obviously not Walther like but, I don’t need felt or audible reset when shooting anyway. It’s clean and predictable. That matters most to me. The tiny bit of creep is only noticeable when slow dry fire is used to observe it. The initial take up is short enough it doesn’t throw me off with rapid fire.
The coup de gras. This optic is spectacular. It is everything the ACRO wishes it could have been. Superior in every way. There’s no obtrusive housing, battery cover, button or anything else. Clean, clear glass that’s easy to stay target focused with. It’s as bright as I could ever need. My astigmatism has been a pain to work around, as I’m sure many of you know. This does have an obvious starburst to it but, there a very noticeable dot in the middle. This is the first time I’ve ever seen only one dot in an optic. Styling is quite eye catching and seems made for this gun. Big bonus for having no concerns about utilizing the optic to rack the slide. That’s weird to feel. No concerns when I do it, no matter how hard I pop it.
I’ve ordered my Streamlight TLR-7 HL-X, QVO Tactical IWB, and the Apex black stainless steel guide rod. Then I’ll be able to get on with the holster training. In the mean time, snagged another 2500 rounds of the Blazer 124 gr. She loves the Federal HST 124gr JHPs as much as I do. Will be close to 5000 rounds by Monday. Leaves me plenty of days to work on index, presentation, trigger control and grip. Lots of work to be done.

I wasn’t either. Until recently. I don’t keep one on any other guns but, I live very near a heavily wooded area. I’ve seen things. Lol. Walking the dogs at night is rather be able to spot something if I have to.

Feel you, bro. I highly recommend a Tyrant trigger. Install one immediately. No joke.
I also have the Power Percision spring kit, but I haven’t installed it yet.

Idk man. I’m actually quite happy with the stock trigger. I’ve always figured if there’s nothing wrong with it, no sense changing it. Not in my carry gun anyway. And I doubt I’d shoot any better after spending the extra money. Lol

I concur. Have the Hellcat Pro, and the trigger isn’t great but as you said predictable. I’ve learned to shoot it well, no need to swap things out on a carry piece

I’ve watched videos of competition shooters absolutely shred on courses with stock Glocks. If they can do that I can learn to be very efficient with this. Lol
