Bill's Favorite Range Guns - Gun Guys Ep. 38

[@theprepperrevelator]

I feel super lucky to have #20 of the Wilson/Beretta Centurion’s. I have a friend at Wilson and if she reads this I want her to know, to this day I’m thankful for all of your kindness. I’m hanging on to that gun for my grandson. That gun is only one of the many things she did for me over the years and I’m greatful for all of it. Sincerely, Rick

Not going to happen. These guys, for all their gun knowledge, are dinosaurs - and I mean that by the way they think. They’re so set in their opinions that they most likely haven’t changed their minds about anything since they were adolescents. So what they learned about CZ when they were 20 is that they were controlled by the “damn commies,” not knowing that that condition wasn’t a intentional choice by the Czech people. But no matter. CZ, being a “commie gun” doesn’t appear on their radar as anything worth considering, or reconsidering. This rigidity of thinking/opinion is all too common.

[@DrumandPianoDude]

I can understand your feelings about Glock. Glock is a firearm that you either love or hate. I get that. I own 7 Glocks, and they work for me right out of box. At the same time, I don't recommend them as the best choice. I recommend what will fit the shooter's hands, and what they hit the best with. I also have a Beretta 92FS, a variety of S&W's (striker & hammer fire autos), and a collection of Ruger P series pistols from the 90's. I shoot all of them well. But I lean towards my Glocks like you do the 1911 platform. It's all subjective. I really do enjoy these videos, and I enjoy hearing both opinions and experiences from you gentlemen!

[@AnomadAlaska]

I popped into the comments to say something similar. The Glock platform works fine for my needs. I shoot a good revolver better for bullseye stuff. But I can reload a Glock lickity-split.

[@JA-oo9qp]

Such an elaborate ad for Wilson Combat

[@PPISAFETY]

I was a bit surprised to hear of Bill's dislike of Glock pistols. Not every gun is compatible with every shooter, and that is okay I suppose. I knew of his long standing preference for Berettas and his own company's guns, and that is fine. But I'll take the opposite position based on my own experience with the Glocks I own and have owned in the past. That position is that the Glock, when left alone and used for its original intended purpose is quite a tool. That purpose is to be able to score anatomically relevant hits on a human target out to any reasonable handgun distance, and to do so reliably with a minimum of maintenance. I have two Gen 3 Glock 19's that I have had for years, and carried both on and off duty in my professional life. I assure you that I have no difficulty scoring head shot hits on an IDPA target at 25 yards with either one of them when loaded with good ammunition. The only modification I have made to either of them was to install Trijicon HD sights. I have had similar experiences with the Glock 26, the Glock 17, and even the Glock 23 and Glock 30 when I carried them. Torso hits at 50 yards should not be a chore with any of these models. My current pocket gun is the Glock 42, and I find it to be plenty accurate for its intended purpose as well. I'm the same age as Bill, so I understand what can happen with eyesight at our age. I have no doubt that Bill Wilson is being honest when he says he cannot shoot Glocks very well. They are not for everyone, and nobody has to like everything. But to me a Glock pistol is simply a work tool, and aside from installing sturdier sights, they are probably better when left alone. I don't think there are widespread accuracy problems with factory spec Glocks, as evidenced by dozens of videos online showing them being shot successfully at long range.

[@rodgerbooth1064]

Wait until you have one of those plastic guns blow up in your hand! Quite the thrill! I agree with you Ken. Any gun must have safety! I bought a 320 and had a hot load go through it and I swear that plastic is still landing down range!! Granted, it was a hot reload but, I have had the same thing in one of my steel guns (Wilson CQB Elite Compact with no damage whatsoever! The plastic guns with no safety are gone. The steel frame guns with a safety will always be here!

[@P_Petkov]

What is a hot load/reload

[@rodgerbooth1064]

@@P_Petkov A hot load would be a "+P" load, Very high pressure and speed. Some guns are made for it and some not. You should check the owner's manual and the stamping on the barrel. Magnum Cartridges are also an example. If you are not sure use a standard velocity load. Google is also a good source of information. A "Hot Reload" is usually when a double charge has entered the casing. A double charge. One inadvertently loaded the powder twice! Example, A 9mm normal Load of 5.1 GR of Hodgdon CFE has been charged twice equalling 10.2 GR. Or the wrong powder is used.. Let's say a Rifle Powder in a Pistol Case! If you are going to reload get yourself a good Reloading Manual! $35.oo

​@@chestersnapdragonmcphistic579, your use of Greek and your screen name convince me of the gravity of the thoughts you have conveyed on this day. However, mou éphayes ta aftiá. If Bill's eyes have aged the way most human eyes age, then he's become (more) hyperopic, with diminished accommodation, potentially with increased astigmatism. It's not clear how a shorter bore axis compensates for those ocular shortcomings, regarding focus or sight picture. I supposed we can poll people of various ages on the matter, but much more likely Bill's preference is a quirk of Bill himself, and trying to extrapolate from his simply stating his preference and his "my old eyes" statement is a fools errand. But this is an internet social media comment section, so clowns of various ilk will come to gainsay and argue and explain to you why you're wrong (and also to emphasize the glaring deficiencies in your character), so as they say in American English, it is what it is.

Last time I checked the P320 compact (15rd) is ~$70 cheaper than the gen 5 G19. Glock gouges we all know this, I have a few myself and I don't own a p320 so being impartial I think I'd pick a p320 if I wanted a compact 9mm in the current market anyway.

[@flaco5581]

I'm surprised there aren't any. 45s !

[@Lutz101]

Pretty sure 'peak Glock' was the Gen3 G19 (c. 1998) adopted by the US Navy SEALs in 2015. Later generations added unnecessary features that harmed reliability (dual recoil spring is more likely to cause stoppages if dust, dirt, sand or mud gets inside the pistol) and robustness (removable backstrap), while the oversized mag release increases the incidence of accidental mag dumps. Plenty accurate IMO, though one can always waste money buying a match barrel that likely decreases reliability in adverse conditions due to tighter tolerances.

[@bluesteel5841]

[@ChadHargis]

I have tried and tried to like Glocks. The only one I've ever liked is the Glock 40 because it's a big behemoth of a firearm and shoots 10mm which is always fun to shoot. My EDC gun is a Shadow Systems MR920 (Glock 19 clone). It uses Glock mags and Glock holsters and a Glock operating system...so it's easy to find accessories for. It has a great optics mounting system too, best I've ever used. I'm mostly a hammer fired fan, just like them better. Personal choice. But my striker fired gun of choice is the P320 because of it's modularity. I have one FCU, but I have 4 grip modules, three barrels, two slides, and all the configurations fit in the same holster. I wish the optic cut on the Pro slide worked with more than two optics. I prefer my Halosun to the Romeo One Pro. But it's nice to have multiple "guns" that all have the same trigger pull.

[@lancecahill5486]

@Kevin Hillier Most people don't compete and shoot 20,000 rounds. Nowadays, it's lucky if you can find 200 rounds at a reasonable price. The point is for most people a $400-$500 gun is adequate for self protection and home defense. When you have to fire at close range, you don't really need a $3,000 gun to do the job.

[@DK-gy7ll]

I have to agree. They are decent guns and were state of the art 30 years ago, but out of the box they are quite dated compared to what else is out there today. The next generation of Glocks NEEDS to have decent steel sights, a good trigger and a grip that doesn't feel like holding something made out of Lego bricks. And that's just so it can remain competitive with the rest of the market. Unfortunately they continue to sell by the boatloads for no other reason than they have the word GLOCK on the side. Sure they're reliable, but so are all the other modern pistols out there.

"range guns". II think the choice comes down to reliability and which gun do you pickup the most often. The gains in accuracy...I think are so minimal. Because some part of w upgraded from the factory installed part. It's about the shooters form more than the gun itself. With all due respects to Mr. Wilson, as well made as his guns are no doubt, at the range I doubt the average shooter will shot better groupings with a $5000 gun over a $500 Glock. ..if anything, if he or she has shoot with the Glock more often...

Slightly off topic, but as a relatively new gun owner I'm confused about firearms safety rules. Ken pointed the muzzle of the Beretta 92 (and possibly a few others) directly at Bill.

[@chrisragone8785]

With all due respect to your experience and knowledge Mr. Wilson come on Stock barrels in Glocks inaccurate and you can’t make a headshot at 15 yards. I respectfully call BS. I’m no Glock fan and before the Gen-5 models they were adequate but not overly accurate, but still grouped under 4 inches at 25 yards. The newer Gen-5 with the Marksman Barrels and improved lockup tolerances I’ve seen groups under 3 inches ransom rested at 25 yards. In practical application I have absolutely no problem with stock Glock accuracy at 25 yards and I hate plastic fantastic striker fired guns lol.

[@seppshlllearningcenter419]

Sample size: 1 The gen 5 Glock 17 I was issued is the least accurate of all my handguns. I didnt see any improvement with that "marksman" barrel with duty ammo nor with 124gr ball in training and qualifications. No one in the agency scored any better with Gen 5 than Gen 3...the biggest factor is the person, next to that is not having factory glock sights. Since every agency is cheap, there's anither $100 of personal money for anyone that takes a duty weapon seriously...but most people dont realize most dont care. Its just a tool. I suppose if we all sat at a bench we might get miraculous groups, but for qualification course it's not been an improvement at all over previous gens, nor over comparable competition, like the M&P. I like not having the stupid finger grooves though, and the trigger is at least very consistent...but then again the best shooters in the entire dept use DA/SA guns still.

Happy to see Bill likes Beretta 92. It's affordable, safe, accurate and reliable. Only drawback is hard to carry concealed!

[@NordicViking88]

I would half to agree glock is inaccurate at longer ranges love the reliability but 20+ yards and that spread just opens up. Even with aftermarket triggers and sights with performance barrels upgrades you can get something more accurate right out of the box and not have to do the upgrades like you would a glock.

MAN, you're pointing that Beretta at Bill....Empty or not,

[@larrylarry739]

Yes, he was extremely careless.

[@bobkonclyn1181]

Bill, Would you and Ken give us your insight into backup handguns that are your favorites. Bobby.

[@Woolsocks]

I wish Wilson Combat would work their magic on a CZ P07, it’s a polymer frame like the Glock or sig, double-action single-action like a beretta 92 and is an awesome EDC. Sounds like it’s the perfect storm to me!

Cz 75 sp 01 it is a great shooter. Heavey for a good reason, makes it sable.
